Hi coaster friends!

We’re very excited to announce a special partnership with Cedar Point today, resulting in another free update for all Planet Coaster players!

In Spring 2018 Cedar Point will be opening its hyper-hybrid rollercoaster, the Steel Vengeance – a revamp of their famous wooden coaster Mean Streak. Steel Vengeance is set to be the tallest, fastest, and longest hybrid rollercoaster in the world!

However, you won’t have to wait until next year to see this beauty in action: in Update 1.3.6, we are releasing the Steel Vengeance for free! The new hybrid coaster is fully customisable, and you’ll also have the premade blueprint of the Steel Vengeance to place and ride in-game! We’ve also added Steel Vengeance’s own brand new ride entrance sign as well as Cedar Point’s official logos to the sign collection.

Big thanks to both Cedar Point and the Planet Coaster team for this one-of-a-kind collaboration. We cannot wait to visit the real coaster in Spring 2018!
Enjoy!

[heart]
Bo

I really hope we get more of these official park sponsored rides/scenery in the future.

This is great indeed

Woohoo! Thanks, Frontier! Got some bug fixes that were badly needed and a cool new coaster as well :D

Ya know, now that we have a blueprint replica of a real ride, it will be interesting to see how this goes with the whole coaster friction thing.

Nice and welcomed surprise. Is this a partnership with Cedar Point strictly or all of Cedar Fair? Also is it a one time thing or ongoing partnership?

Click to expand...

They decreased the friction slightly for the new version, as well as give it less track restrictions so it can make the 90 degree drop.

The in-game version is also a lot taller than the real life version.
