This iconic theme park simulator that left a lasting impression on an entire generation has returned with renewed vigor.

Jump right in now for just $29.99, and start constructing the park you’ve always envisioned—whether it’s a paradise or a terror-filled nightmare—all rendered in stunning 3D!

If you spent your childhood days meticulously managing peep happiness and strategically planning bathroom placements in virtual theme parks, then this is the upgraded RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 experience tailored for contemporary gaming platforms. Originally released in 2004, this game transformed the theme park simulator genre by abandoning the traditional pixelated, isometric perspective in favor of an immersive, three-dimensional sandbox environment. Whether you’re a seasoned tycoon or a newcomer eager to showcase your park management expertise, this updated version offers a nostalgic trip down memory lane with a modern twist.

A Classic, Reforged

Initially, when RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 debuted on personal computers, it didn’t merely make an appearance; it dominated. In less than a week after its release, it soared to the top of Amazon’s PC game rankings and concluded the year among the top 10 best-selling PC games, as reported by The NPD Group. Now, console gamers have the opportunity to savor what made this simulation such a legendary piece of gaming lore—and it’s brimming with content.

This game offers an identical adrenaline rush as its predecessor, and even better, it incorporates both popular expansions: “Soaked!” and “Wild!”. That translates to water parks, wildlife habitats, safari journeys, and a multitude of opportunities for mischief. Fancy constructing a coaster that splashes into a water body? By all means, do it. Feeling daring enough to place a lion enclosure near the food court to scare the guests? We don’t condone that but we’re not here to stop you.

Next-Level Features for Maximum Mayhem

In RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, it wasn’t just about constructing attractions; instead, it was all about enjoying the experience. With innovative features like CoasterCam, you could actually hop on and ride your uniquely designed roller coasters from a first-person perspective, experiencing each thrilling curve, plunge, and loop that your “guests” would enjoy (and possibly endure)! (A handy tip: make sure to have barf bags ready.)

Additionally, you’ll have the ability to use the MixMaster, a tool for synchronizing firework and music displays, even with in-game melodies for an incredible climax. Regardless if you’re designing peaceful community spaces or terrifying amusement parks, you’ll have all the necessary tools at your disposal.

Regarding the people aspect, there have been significant improvements in the AI crowd system within RCT3 now. The visitors appear in diverse groups such as families, teenagers, and adults, and they respond dynamically to your park’s actions. Keep them satisfied, and you’ll see the money pile up. Neglect basic facilities like restrooms and clean paths, however, and be prepared for disorder.

Where to Get It

You can now grab ‘RollerCoaster Tycoon 3’ for your PlayStation 5, Xbox One, or Xbox Series X|S at a price of $29.99 USD. But don’t worry if you aren’t a console player; the game is also accessible on PC and Mac platforms like Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG, and even on Nintendo Switch for those who enjoy building roller coasters wherever they go.
