RollerCoaster Tycoon Wonderworks announced at gamescom 2026
A new RollerCoaster Tycoon game has been revealed at gamescom 2026 today.
RollerCoaster Tycoon Wonderworks finds Atari and Springloaded joining forces to deliver a new way to play the beloved video game franchise. An announcement trailer can be seen below.
James Barnard, founder and lead developer at Springloaded said this about the game:
“From the beginning, our vision was to imagine what RollerCoaster Tycoon would look like if it were designed today while staying true to the systems that made players fall in love with the original games. That idea guided every decision we made. We wanted to preserve the satisfaction of building thriving parks, designing unforgettable coasters and solving the management challenges that keep everything running, while introducing new systems that create memorable stories every time you play. Whether everything runs perfectly or descends into complete chaos, those moments become part of your park's story.”
Wade Rosen, Chairman and CEO of Atari also said:
“RollerCoaster Tycoon is a franchise that has deep meaning to fans, many of whom have played these games for a decade or more. We are very excited to invite fans into the development process and we are looking forward to hearing player’s reactions and feedback during the early access phase.”
RollerCoaster Tycoon Wonderworks is slated to hit Steam Early Access this winter for $24.99. Wishlist the title here. The game is also slated to arrive on consoles after early access is complete.
