Planet Coaster News

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.

Please stay safe and healthy, and thank you for your ongoing patience and support.

Take care,

The Frontier team.

Hello Coaster friends!

Thank you for all of your support last week when we announced that we're bringing Planet Coaster to consoles! It was a big step for us and we loved seeing all the community reactions from both existing and prospective players. We've also enjoyed celebrating our THIRD anniversary with you this past Sunday, during which we quizzed our most knowledgeable PlanCoFam members and gave away a bunch of fun prizes! Again, we absolutely love having you on this rollercoaster ride with us, so thank you for three years of wonderful memories.

Today we are releasing Update 1.13 - a Quality of Life update with fixes that we've been working on during the development of Planet Coaster: Console Edition, as well as some issues that have been raised by the Community.

We'll be doing a livestream today at 12PM UTC with Producer Lloyd Morgan-Moore about Planet Coaster: Console Edition and the QoL update, so do check it out when you can!
