This is out on PC on the 17th November.

I must say I'm pleased to see Theme Park builders back, after the heights of Theme Park in the 90s and Rollercoaster Tycoon in the early 00s.

The new Rollercoaster Tycoon was poorly received but the impressions around Planet Coaster and Parkitect seem a lot more positive, and with new content packs and mod support it will only get better.

Anyone getting it? PC is priced at £26.99 if you pre-order.

It looks awesome. I love those SIM building games....and this is a huge step above those.

If it comes to PS4, I'm gonna nab it.
I have a MAC for my "PC" so not sure it will be open enough to run it (or if there is even a MAC version).

Ive got this and its very good. It looks great and the creative controls are very powerful. I feel its slightly lacking on the management side though.

I can't see how it could work on a console without being massively simplified or massively fiddly, particularly the creative elements.

Good to hear, I've seen it get some great reviews.With Mods and updates I'm sure it will become even bigger with more to do!

Hope this comes on ps4 very unlikely though but the ps4 is badically a pc so they probably could do it, you can use keyboard and mouse on ps4 too i think.

I would also buy this on PS4. But it is looking unlikely it will ever get ported. Its a shame because I played every one of the RCT games but I've moved to PS4 for all my gaming now and I can't justify buying a new PC just to play one game.

I really want to pick this up at some point, it looks great from what I've seen like Roller Coaster Tycoon but all modern.

gother the PS4 is basically a PC?

Oh nvm I guess you mean the mouse and keyboard

Not sure how it compares, but Rollercoaster Dreams is due on PS4 and PlayStation VR next week. Hopefully available in UK same date.

God this looks terrible

Guess the PC folks have the major edge over us console players for the SIM games.
Planet Coaster is amazing !!!
