We are over the moon to announce that Tropico 6 – New Frontiers is out now for PC.

SpaceX who?

In Tropico 6 – New Frontiers, players are tasked with ensuring Tropico stays ahead of the international competition. It’s a wide world out there and El Prez is taking his persuasion tactics to galactic heights. With the new Space Port Complex, players will embark on launching Tropico into a glorious new future as they construct rockets and delve into research. Take on the Space Race, walk on the Moon and establish the first Mars colony of humankind with the all-new Mission Mars campaign. New characters, buildings and edicts open countless possibilities to make more money, keep your citizens happy and improve upon that Tropican perfection. You can even customise a fresh look for El Prez and his palace that is out of this world. But be warned, even with a stellar plan there is no greater risk than space exploration and who knows what unforeseen circumstances await. You’ll need to be creative if you want to claim glory for Tropico.

Want more cosmic content? With the just-released Tropico 6 update, El Prez is also happy to provide some new content for the citizens of Tropico including bug fixes and a new free landmark, the Moonlander – as long as you vote correctly of course. Tropico 6 – New Frontiers will also be showcased during the game’s first live stream with the Developers on Friday 2nd December at 6pm GMT / 7pm CET over on Kalypso Live.

Tropico 6 – New Frontiers is out now for PC. The cosmic DLC will blast off for PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles on 15th December.

Tropico 6 Update 19 – De sopetón

Fellow Tropicans,

Tropico 6 update 19 – De sopetón has just been released for Steam. The update will follow for Xbox series X/S, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 | 5 on Dec 15th.

With update 19, we have added a new, free Landmark: The Moonlander, for the Cold War era. In addition, we have adjusted the costs for relocating buildings as well as the fluctuation of Tropocoins and removed the monthly upkeep for the “Funhouser Special” edict.

Amongst several fixes, update 19 also solves an issue that led to the Housing-Quality Bonus from Metro Station not being updated correctly when relocating the Metro Station or correspondingly affected residential buildings were relocated. Fixes also include an issue with crashes that could occur in multiplayer, when building bridges or saves included bridges were loaded.

El Prez wants you to nominate Tropico 6 for the 'Labor of Love' Award

[h3]Tropicans![/h3]

El Presidente is thrilled to be in the running for this year’s Steam Awards, and demands nothing less than absolute success for Tropico.
Unfortunately, it seems that El Presidente’s infamous ‘guaranteed win’ strategy doesn’t work so well outside of Tropico, so we need your help to wrangle the vote for our lovable leader.

So vote for Tropico 6 as 'Labor of Love'… or else!

Vote El Prez!
Or else...
