GN Version 5.0

Since RollerCoaster Tycoon's initial release in 1999, it has been one of the most popular gaming franchises of all time. Developed by Chris Sawyer, the RCT series has generated hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue and built a dedicated, diverse and expansive fan base around the world.

Atari is the exclusive master licensee of the RollerCoaster Tycoon franchise. The RCT franchise has become one of Atari's most popular, generating very significant revenue.

Early in 2017, Atari unveiled the newest entry into the franchise -- RollerCoaster Tycoon Touch. This free-to-play 3D simulation game for iOS and Android was an instant success, skyrocketing to the top of the app stores after worldwide launch featuring by Apple and Google Play. With more than 12 million downloads since launch and praise from gamers and critics alike, the classic gameplay proved to be a natural fit for touchscreen devices, making it easier than ever for gamers to flex their imaginations.

In developing the RollerCoaster Tycoon franchise in its most recent versions, Atari worked with Nvizzio Creations. This world-class developer has years of experience developing engaging 3D experiences for gamers, and was intimately involved in the development of RollerCoaster Tycoon World for the PC.

The unmitigated success of the RollerCoaster Tycoon franchise made the opportunity clear for Atari Game Partners: deliver the first RollerCoaster Tycoon game for the Nintendo Switch. The RollerCoaster Tycoon franchise needs to be put in the hands of even more gamers and developed for the new and innovative Nintendo Switch! RollerCoaster Tycoon on Nintendo Switch will be an all-new game made specifically for Switch with exclusive features.
