Planet Coaster: Ghostbusters - Leaving sale

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

Planet Coaster review

Theme parks have a special place in the hearts of PC gamers beyond a certain age. For many of us, Bullfrog's Theme Park was the entry point, letting us plonk down ready-made rides in that grainy green field then watch the rudimentary simulation unfold. I remember being as eager to see guests flying off rollercoasters and slipping around in comical vomit as I was to see a fully-functioning theme park . Then we grew up, and Rollercoaster Tycoon took over, presenting us with more elaborate challenges to build lifelike rides, and micromanaging the park to make it as profitable as possible.
