Press release:
Cambridge, UK – 11 July 2024.
Frontier Developments plc (AIM: FDEV) today announced “Planet Coaster 2“, the highly-anticipated follow-up to 2016’s critically acclaimed “Planet Coaster”.

Building upon genre-defining creative management simulation, Planet Coaster 2, the ultimate coaster park experience is set to reach the next level with all-new water park gameplay. With incredible attractions, stunning scenery, and authentic management, players must provide their guests with an unforgettable day out as they put their creativity and business acumen to the test across three engaging game modes.

Planet Coaster 2 provides players with an array of vibrant water attractions to create their very own coaster and water park paradise. Make a splash with guests as they float along lazy rivers, speed down flumes, plunge into wave pools, and ride exhilarating water coasters. Create an authentic water park experience by providing changing rooms, sunbeds, lifeguards, and more.

Building upon its highly successful predecessor, Planet Coaster 2 gives players the ability to push the boundaries of creativity like never before. Be inspired by spectacular real-world parks and create vibrant guest plazas with enhanced building and pathing tools. Intuitive piece-by-piece building tools and mesmerising new themes make it simple for players to elevate their park building to the next level. Choose from a stellar selection of authentic rides, from returning fan favourites to sensational new water coasters, and for the first time customise them to design a truly unique ride experience. Players can further unleash their imagination and create unforgettable memories for their guests by using the enhanced event sequencer tool, combining animatronics, smoke, water jets, sound, and more in dazzling displays throughout individual rides and across their parks.

With three thrilling game modes, players can immerse themselves in authentic coaster and water park management. Whether getting to grips with a variety of scenarios in Career mode, building a global park network in Franchise mode, or designing epic parks in Sandbox mode, there’s more detail to discover than ever before. Protect guests from the sun, keep pools sparking clean, ensure rides are running safely, and preside over the inner workings of each park with the help of handy heatmaps, new facilities, and more.

In Planet Coaster 2, soaking up the fun with friends is easier than ever. Visit other players’ parks to test out their rides, race to the top of the Franchise mode leaderboard, and even jump one-at-a-time into a shared Sandbox level to build together across platforms. Players in need of inspiration can also share and download blueprints and full parks across platforms via the Frontier Workshop.

Planet Coaster 2 launches autumn 2024 on PC, PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S. Aspiring park managers are invited to join Frontier Unlocked livestreams on the final Wednesday of every month for exciting reveals and new content.
