Hello Park Managers.

Back in 2019 we were honoured and excited to bring a brand-new experience to Planet Coaster, the Planet Coaster: Ghostbusters pack! This epic collection of free roaming vapours brought the magnificent world of the Ghostbusters to Planet Coaster and your creations using it were amazing to behold!

We have truly loved seeing what you have made from this spooktacular addition, but as with all good things, there must be an end. Planet Coaster: Ghostbusters will no longer be available to purchase from the 6th of September due to license expiration. Anyone who has already purchased the game will still be able to continue to play as before, but future purchases of the title will not be possible after this date.

For those that have the Planet Coaster Subscription, many of you would have used this content to create some truly incredible parks, so we will be unlocking the Planet Coaster: Ghostbusters pack on your accounts for free, so you will be able to continue to use this content in your parks. If you cancel your subscription after September the 6th, your entitlement to the Planet Coaster: Ghostbusters pack will remain!

Subscriptions to Planet Coaster after the 6th of September will NOT include the Planet Coaster: Ghostbusters pack

Sculpt the theme park of your dreams and dive into the exciting world of combined water and coaster parks in Planet Coaster 2! Build incredible water rides, glistening swimming pools, towering rollercoasters and more as you ensure your guests get soaked in fun!

Push the boundaries of creativity with brand new rides, refreshed favourites, exciting themes, and a cast of wonderful mascots that will leave your guests shouting for more! Piece-by-piece construction lets you build anything you can imagine, from a beach-themed splash zone to a tropical paradise with lazy rivers. Add scenery to your park and rides to create truly unique and breath-taking creations. Now featuring updated path-building and a fan favourite request…plazas!

Heat maps visually highlight issues within your parks. Focus on fixing, maintaining and replacing old rides, whilst ensuring your guests experience the best comfort in the sun with sunscreen and shade, and in the rain, with wide open umbrellas!

Hayo coaster friends!

Happy 4th Anniversary to all members of the PlanCo Fam! Four years ago, our Planet Coaster journey began on PC. So many of you have joined us along the way and came together to create one of the best communities out there.

To all of the new members in the PlanCo Fam: welcome! The PlanCo Fam are an incredible community, who are always happy to share some tips for your parks and creations, love to share their blueprints with others, and come together in heart-warming ways. Now, with the launch of Planet Coaster: Console Edition too, the community has continued to grow, but it's not finished yet!

We couldn't be happier to share that Planet Coaster, as well as additional DLC packs, are available now on Mac thanks to our partners at Aspyr! Today, our Mac community can begin to create phenomenal parks, build jaw-dropping coasters and craft awe-inspiring buildings that will have guests racing from all over to enjoy what has been designed! We can't wait to see what our Mac PlanCo Fam members create and share!

There can be a learning curve to becoming a great park manager, but fret not! The Mac version is the same as the PC version, so you can visit our Career Mode to get set up with everything you need to know about how to look after the people in your parks. Career Mode was designed with you all in mind, and is the perfect starting point for you to understand how best to make your park a success and what is working, or not working, for your guests. Keep them happy by ensuring they have everything they need to have a great time, from rides to facilities. The staff and Entertainers will always be there to help you out, as long as you pay them well and provide them with breaks!

The piece-by-piece construction in Planet Coaster provides you with the opportunity to build whatever you can imagine, and a venture into Sandbox Mode will provide you with unlimited funds to get cracking. You'll be able to create buildings in a variety of styles, theme whole areas using our building sets, and get creative with a huge variety of scenery pieces! You can choose from a variety of pre-made rides and buildings that will kick-start your park, and can help you find some inspiration. You can make your parks suit your tastes, and blow the minds of all who enter it!

If you're looking to test your skills, then dare to enter the Challenge Mode! You'll be faced with objectives and low funds, which will keep you on your toes and have you thinking methodically on how to satisfy your guests. Don't forget: a happy customer is a paying customer! Take care of your guests in Challenge Mode, and they'll be sure to keep your parks up and running.

Our PlanCo Fam are renowned for sharing their creations, and you'll find a wealth of blueprints on the Steam Workshop that you'll adore. The Steam Workshop will be available for anyone who plays on the Mac Steam version. Enhance your parks with astounding blueprints that will keep your guests coming back for more, and share all of your awesome builds with your fellow community members, so they can be inspired by what you have created, and use it in their parks.

We're so grateful to release Planet Coaster on Mac, with Aspyr. Thank you for all the support you have given us over the years, by letting us know you'd like to enjoy the Planet Coaster experience on Mac. We are looking forward to seeing the Mac community grow, and seeing what you all share with the PlanCo Fam. What will you create first?

Planet Coaster for Mac is available to purchase on Steam and the Mac App Store for $44.99/£29.99/€37.99 (base game). Additional DLC will be available for individual purchase, ranging from $10.99/£7.99/€10.99 to $14.99/£12.99/€14.99, including:

Hi everyone,

We’d like to take a moment to update you all on what’s happening at Frontier with regards to COVID-19, and what you can expect from us in the foreseeable future.

In order to safeguard the health and safety of all Frontier employees, we are implementing a work from home policy across the studio.

Frontier’s games and channels bring joy to the community, and we are all united in our love of these fantastic worlds and the positive impact they produce; this is why we are working hard to avoid any disruption and will do our very best to keep you updated and entertained throughout this challenging time.

Our games will continue to be supported (including online functionality), and at the moment we do not anticipate any major changes to our plans across all titles. However, with the situation changing daily, we will keep you informed and appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to bring the best gaming experiences to our players. Our Communications team will continue to be active across our channels, including forums, Reddit, Discord, and social media; our Customer Support team will continue to offer help and support through our dedicated support channels, and game teams will continue their work on future updates and releases.

As an added precaution, we are restricting work-related travel for the time being, which means we are not attending any events at the current time.

Our hearts and minds are with you and your family; we will continue to monitor the global situation and will adjust our operations as necessary, and keep you posted.
