Hi everyone,
Since Planet Coaster launched in November 2016, we’ve been so overwhelmed by your support, kind words, and dedication to this awesome coaster-loving community. We’ve seen a host of updates thus far, including the highly popular free Winter Update for everyone to enjoy. One thing that we get asked a lot is what to expect for the future development of Planet Coaster.
The team are in fact still working very hard on the game; something which you will see in the form of periodic updates, much like the Winter Update we had in December. From time to time you’ll also see smaller updates which could include a variety of improvements or fixes.
Our next major update is coming in mid to late April; so look forward to some fun activity, news, and livestreams on our official channels as we get closer! We also have a smaller update happening this week which will include new light sequences and coaster support improvements (which you may have seen on the livestream with Sam Denney livestream), bug fixes, additional language support, and, I’m happy to say, a new flatride!
Another thing that a lot of you have been wondering about is paid additional content for Planet Coaster and how this may work in the future. Planet Coaster is a passion for our community and developers alike; that’s why our next major update (1.2), coming in mid-late April, will once again be available for everyone who owns Planet Coaster for free. It will come with a number of gameplay features, flatrides and new coasters that we’re super excited to be showing you over the coming weeks. We will also be introducing cosmetic optional purchases for those of you who want to give your parks that little extra personality!
Finally, we’re very excited to confirm that we will be heading to PAX East in March and would be delighted if you could join us. We will have some livestreams from the show floor, so even if you’re unable to make it to the event, you’ll be able to share in the excitement with us. If you are able to join us make sure to stop by! We’ve got a load of activity going on including an awesome community meet-up with free food, drink, fun and goodies. Keep your eyes peeled on the forums for more information on how you can get involved and join us in Boston!
Thank you for your ongoing support. Your passion, involvement, and positive comments are deeply important and we’re very grateful for such an awesome community.
