About Planet Coaster®

Planet Coaster® poster

Planet Coaster puts the tools of a theme park designer in your hands, letting you build, decorate, and manage a coaster empire down to the smallest detail. This simulation and strategy game champions piece-by-piece construction, drawing on over a thousand building components so that paths, scenery, and rides can all be customized until every corner of your park feels unique. Landscape sculpting extends that freedom underground and skyward alike, as you raise mountains, carve lakes, dig caverns, and even float islands, then thread coasters through the terrain above and below.

Authenticity sits at the heart of the experience, with realistic rides and lifelike guest reactions that respond to everything you create. The free Summer Update expands the toolkit further, introducing fireworks as an explosive customization option alongside a Display Sequencer for choreographing shows to custom music and syncing them with park events. That same update layers in fresh rides and coasters, video and image billboards, new scenarios, a ride sequencer, painted wooden supports, and additional scenery pieces. Whether you delight in surprising crowds or simply sharing your builds with the wider community, Planet Coaster on PC leaves plenty of room for imagination to run wild.
