What is happening now

Planet Coaster 2 is a theme park management sim that launched in November 2024 across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game tasks players with designing and operating increasingly complex amusement parks, complete with custom roller coasters and attractions. Since release, the game has received its first major content addition with the Silver Screen Pack, which introduces Hollywood-themed elements and attractions to builder toolsets across all platforms. Separately, the game's digital pricing has drawn attention, with third-party key resellers offering significantly cheaper access to the base game compared to official storefronts - a trend worth monitoring for anyone considering entry into Frontier's latest management title.
