Unlike the Platinum Edition, the new Complete Edition makes a good effort to modernize Rollercoaster Tycoon 3. Want to create a pirate-themed park? Or what about one modeled after Atlantis? How about a safari zoo instead? RollerCoaster Tycoon 3‘s expansions make all of this possible. They both add over 50 new rides, a plethora of new coasters to choose from, and a ton of options to customize your park. Not the half-hearted pieces of downloadable content we tend to see in newer games. Soaked adds a plethora of water rides and pools while Wild adds the ability to make zoos and safari parks.Īnd these are real expansion packs. It comes with the base game along with Tycoon 3‘s two primary expansion packs, Soaked and Wild. The Complete Edition of Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 is a relatively similar product to that of the previous Platinum Edition. So if you know that you loved the original, this is a great opportunity to show support for the team that made it. Now, Frontier is self-publishing the game on Steam. Long story short, that was published by Atari who didn’t provide developer Frontier the royalties it was owed. After all, the Platinum Edition of Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 was already released onto Steam many years ago. Those with a sharp memory may be wondering why this even exists.


Fourteen years later, and we’ve since been treated to titles like Planet Coaster which makes this classic look dated. At the time, it was arguably the best tycoon game ever made, but that was a long time ago. First released in 2004, Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 is a classic that is sure to steam up the nostalgia glasses of any veteran tycoon player.
