Hi everyone,

As we briefly mentioned in one of our development updates a few months ago, we have been gearing up for our first optional paid content launch. Now we’re excited to tell you what it’s all about!

As of today, we’ve added three new downloadable content packs for Planet Coaster, featuring the DeLorean Time Machine from Back to the Future, the K.I.T.T. and K.A.R.R. vehicles from Knight Rider, and the Munster Koach and DRAG-U-LA vehicles from The Munsters.

Each of these kits include special themed karts and components for your Go-Karts, as well as different scaled pieces for you to construct creatively (specific info below)! Each kit also contains the ready-made blueprint for the vehicle specific to that content pack.

Please note that each Construction Kit is completely optional for you to purchase! We’d love to see them appear in the game to see what you can do with them, and you will be supporting the Frontier team with the development of Planet Coaster.

The kits are available now and sold separately on both Steam and the Frontier store for £1.99 ($2.99, €2.99)* each.

See below for details on what each kit includes!

• Miniature DeLorean Time Machine kart for Go-Karts

How will it work?
If you do not want to purchase any additional content, that’s fine! You’ll be able to toggle them on or off by using the ‘lock button’ right next to the in-game search bar.

Any items on the Steam Workshop that feature paid content items will be marked with a special tag; if you own the same content items as the Workshop item, you’ll be able to place and interact with that blueprint as you would normally. If you do not own the same content items, you can still subscribe to that blueprint, but you will not be able to place it in your park – it will give an ‘obstructed’ notification as well as a warning that the item you’ve selected included DLC content.

The same happens with entire parks that contain additional content; upon opening the park, you will get an in-game notification that tells you this park contains DLC items. You can ignore the notification and fly through the park as you normally would, but any paid content will be locked for you and it won’t function within the park unless you have the correct kit purchased.


Should you have any more questions regarding these additional content items, we’ve prepared an FAQ for you!

Thank you for your ongoing support; we can’t wait to see how you will incorporate these pieces into the game!

*Requires Planet Coaster game (sold separately) and all game updates to play.

New Rides

• Iron Claw - The Iron Claw is a classic pendulum ride that’s been very popular in many parks around the globe. This extreme thrill ride holds up to 32 guests at a time and swings them 65 feet in the air while the cabin continuously spins. The sensations experiences are zero to heavy downward g-forces as the guests are flung in all directions and almost completely upside down.
  
• Sky Watcher - The Sky watcher is a large observation tower that elevates your guests to 138m into the air to give the most impressive vista of your parks and the rotating cabin offers amazing panoramic views. The movement is graceful and is suitable for all ages. The structure is and elegant and beautiful combination of glass and steel and enhanced with a beautiful lighting arrangement this will give your park an iconic landmark for your guests to wonder at. This ride seats up to 60 guests at a time making it the highest capacity of any ride currently in game.
  
• Black Out - The Blackout is an extreme inverting swing-ship, and has been inspired by the classic Looping Starship. This ride harkens back to the golden age of when the space race was flourishing. With a capacity to hold up to 50 guests and standing at 22 meters it’s a great major ride for your parks.

New Coasters

• Power Up - The Power-up is a compact coaster ideal for squeezing into those tight spaces in your park. The train design is very open to offer maximum thrills and exposure to the elements. A vertical lift that takes the train uphill at 90 degrees and then the car then turns another 90 degrees upside down and is released into a terrifying plummet through a heart line roll down into a vertical drop and back through the station, back up the chain-lift again where it the rolls backwards through the station again a couple of times until it’s caught and lowered backwards into the station. A short but brutal ride guaranteed to scare the wits out of your guests.
  
• Viper One - The Viper One up is a multi launch, twisted impulse, LIM shuttle coaster that consists of two large towering supports that hold up a 66m inline-roll at each end. As the coaster passes through the station the train get hurled up further up the track with each run until it almost reaches the top of each tower and giving the sensation the the train is going to fly off the end of the track.
  
• Gnarler - The Gnarler is a new wooden coaster car to help celebrate the addition of painted wooden supports. The train is adds a more modern wooden coaster train design tom the traditional wooden coasters family. The train chassis are incredibly detailed with stylish and beautifully crafted interior and unique lead car.
  
• De-Gen and Bolt - Something often requested by the Planet Coaster community was to have the sit-down boomerang coaster car (Trident) to appear on the ‘looping coaster track’ (The American Arrow) and visa-versa. We not only did this by creating two new coasters but we also gave them an upgrade with a new lick of paint and some minor cosmetic tweaks and they look beautiful.

New Scenarios

• Goldmine Tower - Some poor fella bought this mine from a prospector, and took out some big loans to pay for it. Turns out it was a scam. The varmint had salted the mine! Now he’s trying to turn it into a tourist attraction with fireworks and Old West-style streets, but it’s not doing as well as he hoped and he needs your help.
  
• Miss Elly's Diner - Miss Elly's Diner has some great facilities, including a big wooden coaster for a spot of excitement! But its remote location means it doesn’t see many visitors, and its potential isn’t being realised. Can you build on this location and draw in the crowds?
  
• Starship Hanger - They filmed some pretty famous movies out here in the desert. It kind of looks like Mars, don’t it. The place isn’t much in demand any more – it’s all CGI these days – but the company doesn’t want to let it go. They want you to turn it into a theme park instead!

Coaster and Tracked Ride Blueprints

• 'Steam' - Luna Autos Powered Tracked Ride blueprint
  
• 'Tornado' - The Monster Coaster blueprint

New Rides

• Iron Claw - The Iron Claw is a classic pendulum ride that’s been very popular in many parks around the globe. This extreme thrill ride holds up to 32 guests at a time and swings them 65 feet in the air while the cabin continuously spins. The sensations experiences are zero to heavy downward g-forces as the guests are flung in all directions and almost completely upside down.
  
• Sky Watcher - The Sky watcher is a large observation tower that elevates your guests to 138m into the air to give the most impressive vista of your parks and the rotating cabin offers amazing panoramic views. The movement is graceful and is suitable for all ages. The structure is and elegant and beautiful combination of glass and steel and enhanced with a beautiful lighting arrangement this will give your park an iconic landmark for your guests to wonder at. This ride seats up to 60 guests at a time making it the highest capacity of any ride currently in game.
  
• Black Out - The Blackout is an extreme inverting swing-ship, and has been inspired by the classic Looping Starship. This ride harkens back to the golden age of when the space race was flourishing. With a capacity to hold up to 50 guests and standing at 22 meters it’s a great major ride for your parks.

New Coasters

• Power Up - The Power-up is a compact coaster ideal for squeezing into those tight spaces in your park. The train design is very open to offer maximum thrills and exposure to the elements. A vertical lift that takes the train uphill at 90 degrees and then the car then turns another 90 degrees upside down and is released into a terrifying plummet through a heart line roll down into a vertical drop and back through the station, back up the chain-lift again where it the rolls backwards through the station again a couple of times until it’s caught and lowered backwards into the station. A short but brutal ride guaranteed to scare the wits out of your guests.
  
• Viper One - The Viper One up is a multi launch, twisted impulse, LIM shuttle coaster that consists of two large towering supports that hold up a 66m inline-roll at each end. As the coaster passes through the station the train get hurled up further up the track with each run until it almost reaches the top of each tower and giving the sensation the the train is going to fly off the end of the track.
  
• Gnarler - The Gnarler is a new wooden coaster car to help celebrate the addition of painted wooden supports. The train is adds a more modern wooden coaster train design tom the traditional wooden coasters family. The train chassis are incredibly detailed with stylish and beautifully crafted interior and unique lead car.
  
• De-Gen and Bolt - Something often requested by the Planet Coaster community was to have the sit-down boomerang coaster car (Trident) to appear on the ‘looping coaster track’ (The American Arrow) and visa-versa. We not only did this by creating two new coasters but we also gave them an upgrade with a new lick of paint and some minor cosmetic tweaks and they look beautiful.

New Scenarios

• Goldmine Tower - Some poor fella bought this mine from a prospector, and took out some big loans to pay for it. Turns out it was a scam. The varmint had salted the mine! Now he’s trying to turn it into a tourist attraction with fireworks and Old West-style streets, but it’s not doing as well as he hoped and he needs your help.
  
• Miss Elly's Diner - Miss Elly's Diner has some great facilities, including a big wooden coaster for a spot of excitement! But its remote location means it doesn’t see many visitors, and its potential isn’t being realised. Can you build on this location and draw in the crowds?
  
• Starship Hanger - They filmed some pretty famous movies out here in the desert. It kind of looks like Mars, don’t it. The place isn’t much in demand any more – it’s all CGI these days – but the company doesn’t want to let it go. They want you to turn it into a theme park instead!

We can only be rambling about one thing: our FREE Summer Update is coming! Announced today at E3, this all new seasonal fiesta is making its way to you on June 27, 2017. This update is our third major free update to Planet Coaster alongside December’s Winter Update and April’s Spring Update as well as numerous additional smaller updates bringing new languages, rides, collision toggles and much more.

Start this sunny season with a sizzling fireworks extravaganza! Celebrate your park’s milestones or dazzle your guests with explosive shows; the new Display Sequencer lets you customise and trigger up to 100 pieces (including animatronics and FX), so you can play around with a wide variety of fireworks that can even be choreographed to custom music! Endless fantastic spectacles are possible, but you can check out the fireworks trailer below for some initial inspiration:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PB2x_Q5Leg

Hype up your guests even more with Video Billboards! These new panels let you place your own textures and videos into your parks; we will explain more about how the billboards work when the update goes live on June 27, and those of you who don’t want to upload anything can choose from a selection of pre-recorded videos and stills that will be available in-game. Just imagine: you can play your own Commercial Break entry on repeat!



The new Ride Sequencer gives you all the control over your favourite rides, and you can personalise your wooden coasters even further with painted wooden supports! For that ultimate summer flair, we’re also releasing a host of celebratory scenery pieces, such as inflatables, flags, and bunting that can be customised to perfection.

We’re adding three new Scenarios to the Career mode: visit Miss Elly’s Diner, test your firework skills in the Goldmine Tower, or fly through the galaxy in Starship Hangar. And of course, we couldn’t go without expanding the coaster and ride family with eight new members! Say hello to five new coasters: the Gnarler (modern train on wooden supports), Viper One (multi-launch coaster), Power Up (compact coaster), De-Gen (21st century train on traditional looping track), and Bolt (modern boomerang coaster).
The Viper One and Power Up have a very special new feature as well: dual-direction launch stations! Send your guests flying forwards and backwards with this amazing new option!

As for the rides, we’ve got the Iron Claw (classic pendulum ride), Blackout (swinging ship on an inverted loop), and Sky Watcher (observation platform with rotating cabin). We can’t wait to see how you’ll incorporate these across your parks!



We will of course be implementing general improvements and bug fixes as well; you’ll be able to get all the information from the Update notes on June 27. We hope you’re as excited as we are for all this new content. Tune in to our Wednesday livestream on June 14 at 7PM BST with Ed and Bo to recap these announcements and play PlanEd Boster, and on June 21 with Bo and Sam Denney for a pre-update live build stream! Hope to see you all there!
