Hasbro Interactive Keeps the Fun Rolling For ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON Fans; LOOPY LANDSCAPES Expansion Pack to be Released This Fall
BEVERLY, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 21, 2000--Building on its success and computer game-players' fun with ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON, Hasbro Interactive (NYSE: HAS) announced today it will release a new expansion pack for the best-selling sim game. Called ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON: LOOPY LANDSCAPES and due to hit store shelves next month, the new add-on pack will give players more rides, attractions, scenarios and other creative ways to expand their simulated amusement parks.
LOOPY LANDSCAPES will include all-new attractions such as new types of rollercoasters and new rides, like the jet ski ride, plus new park shops, like T-shirt stands, donut stands and a coffee cafe. There will also be six new park themes, among them a winter park and urban park. Thirty new scenarios, including desert, arctic, and medieval castle themes, will challenge players with unique terrain and new scenario objectives. Several real amusement parks from England have also been included to see if players can handle the real thing!
ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON was the #1 selling computer game of 1999 according to PC Data. The game's broad-appealing theme - building and running your very own amusement park - and its intuitive and at the same time in-depth game play have helped to keep it in the top-10 selling PC games throughout 2000. "ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON has captured the imaginations of a broad spectrum of people - children to adults, core and casual game-players alike - across an equally broad range of cultures, making it a true global success story," commented Hasbro Interactive President Tom Dusenberry.
Last year, Hasbro Interactive released the first expansion pack, ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON: CORKSCREW FOLLIES, which according to PC Data quickly became a top-10 seller, as well.
