RollerCoaster Tycoon World Out December 10th
Atari's RollerCoaster Tycoon World has been given an early December launch date with pre-orders now open for both Standard and Deluxe Editions, with the latter including more maps and terrains and the Panda mascot.
A Beta is also planned and will be split across two "prelaunch Beta weekends" granting exclusive early access to the amusement park of your dreams... just as soon as you build it. These will be held in late October and November.
"Beta periods are an extremely important part of the development process as they allow us to see how players are interacting with the game prior to a larger release. This gives us time to make final tweaks, polish, and bug fixes before launching. It also allows, you, the community, to channel your feedback to us by playing the game and letting us know what you think."
"Any and all feedback is appreciated! With the Beta program, there is no better way to get involved in the development of RCTW – other than being an actual developer of course!"
Pre-orders also include five additional peep skins to represent your early dedication. Modders should keep a close eye on the coming months too as they're working on getting creation tools into their hands."
"We are currently working on a way for you to be able to get a head start on content creation. A number of you have emailed us about this and we ask that you please stay tuned for announcements soon on that topic."
RollerCoaster Tycoon World releases on PC December 10th, and on Mac at a later date.
