Planet Coaster Alpha Begins
Cambridge, UK. October 6, in the year of our Lord 2016.
Frontier Developments plc (AIM: FDEV) will today launch the
Planet Coaster Alpha Weekend and Party in the Park community
event.
Every player who pre-orders the Planet Coaster Thrillseeker
Edition from Steam or FrontierStore.net can join the Planet
Coaster Alpha test starting October 6 at 18:00 BST and ending

Be the boss in the Planet Coaster Alpha Weekend. Create, Manage
and Share the world’s greatest coaster parks with friends and
content creators around the world. Surprise, delight and thrill
your guests as you build your coaster park empire, and let your
imagination run wild with an early peek at the future of coaster
park simulation games:
• Create. Anyone can create in Planet Coaster. Build coasters,
lay paths, design scenery and customize rides with Planet
Coaster’s piece-by-piece construction. Sculpt the world to raise
mountains, form lakes, dig caverns and even build islands in the
sky!
• Manage. The most sophisticated park simulation in gaming
history makes management fun. When Planet Coaster launches
you'll control every aspect of your park and see your guests
react as you build your coaster empire. Together, your guests
tell you at a glance just how well you’re doing.
• Share. Be inspired and inspire others. Share your creations
with the world, and download the best parks, rides and scenery
from your friends, community celebrities or the Planet Coaster
team. Build it, name it and share it!
And join Planet Coaster’s community team for Party in the Park:
an epic, imaginative and fun weekend of community livestreams
and activity, where the best community creations from this
weekend’s Alpha test will be brought together to build the
first-ever crowdsourced theme park.
