Free Planet Coaster Thrills Via Spring Update
Planet Coaster is getting a free update next month that contains three new rollercoasters, customizable flatrides and a speed go-kart ride. It's not all fun believe it or not, as park ruffians can get in the way of a good time.
The spring update hits on April 11, and with it comes everything from the latest thrills to old classics. And wherever there's fun being had there are, of course, those who want to spoil it. Beware the pickpockets!
Here is the update's contents, with text direct from developer Frontier Developments:
New Rollercoasters
-
Steel Hydra. Feel the G-force aboard Planet Coaster's first suspended swinging coaster.
-
Trident. Go there and back again with the first of Planet Coaster's two new shuttle coasters.
-
Bakasura. Trident's bigger, badder brother is a thrilling inverted boomerang coaster.
New Tracked Ride
-
'Speed' Go Karts. Design your own karting tracks using Planet Coaster's powerful track editor and see your guests put pedal to the metal! Who will win and who will spin?
New Flatrides
-
Elixir Machine. 360 degrees of spinning, swinging, twisting, upside-down insanity.
-
Big Wheel. An iconic favorite from the golden age of theme parks.
-
ZoZo. The long-armed ZoZo is another addition to Planet Coaster's lineup of vintage classics.
New Feature
- Crime and security. Dissatisfied guests may vandalize park scenery, and pickpockets will infiltrate your park to steal other guests' cash. Keep your law-abiding guests safe with security staff and CCTV cameras.
