RollerCoaster Tycoon On Track to 3DS

Posted September 7, 2011 by Ben Strauss

One of the most beloved gaming franchises to ever grace the PC is making a comeback thanks to efforts being made by Atari.  The venerated franchise, a mix between quirky god-powered shenanigans and simulator, will be released on the 3DS sometime in the near future. 

"RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D marks the return of one of the most popular game franchises and delivers an innovative, robust and unrestricted theme park simulator to the next generation of Tycoon fans," said Atari boss Jim Wilson. 

Atari is taking due care of the title, promising a “challenging yet manageable take on the genre for players of all ages.”  Gamers can look forward to the classic gameplay mechanics, as well as a new “Coaster Story” mode that will give various scenarios to players.

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D is set for release in 2012.
