Coasters, flumes and pools
You lay out track piece by piece, from towering coasters and flat thrill rides to twisting water flumes that drop into glistening pools. You shape terrain underneath it all, so a hill, a lagoon and a midway can sit side by side in one connected park.
Decorate everything your way
Nine themes give you a starting point, with returning Pirate and Western looks alongside new Viking and Mythology sets and thousands of themed pieces. Every non-grid scenery object scales up or down, so one crab can become a giant gate figure and a pocket-sized pool companion. For the first time you can also attach scenery straight to ride cars and flat rides, which makes a neutral ride fit whatever land you place it in.
Keep the park running
Thrills have to pay. You set prices, place shops and amenities, keep attractions powered and watch your rating climb toward theme park mastery. Water parks add their own chores: shade, sunscreen, lifeguards and changing rooms. Heat maps show where the wider park is struggling at a glance, and you can click any guest to see how that person and their group feel about their day.
Build, visit and share together
Sandbox mode uses a shared cross-platform save, so players take turns adding to the same park from anywhere. Franchise mode lets friends grow a theme park empire together and compare results on worldwide leaderboards. You can also walk through another player's park in first person as a guest, and upload or download coasters, rides and whole parks through the cross-platform Frontier Workshop, in game and online.
Good to know?
What do I actually build?
Roller coasters, thrill rides, water flumes, swimming pools, plazas, paths and terrain, plus shops and facilities. Construction is piece by piece, with improved building and pathing tools and thousands of themed pieces across nine themes.
How does the event sequencer work?
It lets you stage dramatic moments around your park, timed with lighting and effects. Paired with global illumination lighting, it is meant for evening shows and ride scenes that give guests something to stop and watch.
What is there to manage?
Money, power, amenities and guest health and happiness. You place lifeguards, shade, sunscreen and changing rooms around water areas, use heat maps to spot problems, and check individual guests to see what their group needs next.
How does multiplayer work?
It is cooperative and asynchronous. In Sandbox you share one cross-platform save and take turns building the same park. In Franchise you collaborate on an empire and compete on leaderboards, and you can explore other players parks on foot as a guest.
