Just add water: RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 gets Soaked!
New expansion for theme-park builder lets gamers add aquatic attractions; PCs get wet this June.
Atari today announced that the first expansion for the strategy game RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 will ship this June for the PC. The expansion will be titled RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Soaked! and is being developed by British studio Frontier Developments, the team behind RCT3 and the PlayStation 2 game Dog's Life.
Soaked! lets gamers expand their amusement parks with a host of water-themed attractions. Among the new rides gamers will be able to incorporate into their playgrounds are water slides, flume rides, and wave pools. Other attractions include aquariums, dolphin and killer whale shows, and laser-light water shows. Gamers can also spice up their parks with a swimming pool and waterfall designer.
The Roller Coaster Tycoon franchise lets gamers design and manage their own theme parks, controlling everything from the twists and turns of coasters to the prices of cotton candy. For the first time in the series, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 is in full 3D and even allows gamers to virtually "ride" their coaster from a first-person perspective.
Rating and pricing information were not available at the time of press. GameSpot will have more information on RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Soaked! as details are released. For more on RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, check out our full review.
