Bracknell, UK – (1st December 2022) - Publisher Kalypso Media and in-house developer Realmforge Studios are over the moon to announce that Tropico 6 – New Frontiers is out now for PC. Whilst a certain billionaire is distracted by the chaos at Twitter, El Presidente has decided that now is the perfect time for a little space exploration of his own if he truly wants to become the richest man in the universe. SpaceX who?
In Tropico 6 – New Frontiers, players are tasked with ensuring Tropico stays ahead of the international competition. It’s a wide world out there and El Prez is taking his persuasion tactics to galactic heights. With the new Space Port Complex, players will embark on launching Tropico into a glorious new future as they construct rockets and delve into research. Take on the Space Race, walk on the Moon and establish the first Mars colony of humankind with the all-new Mission Mars campaign. New characters, buildings and edicts open countless possibilities to make more money, keep your citizens happy and improve upon that Tropican perfection. You can even customise a fresh look for El Prez and his palace that is out of this world. But be warned, even with a stellar plan there is no greater risk than space exploration and who knows what unforeseen circumstances await. You’ll need to be creative if you want to claim glory for Tropico.
Want more cosmic content? With the just-released Tropico 6 update, El Prez is also happy to provide some new content for the citizens of Tropico, including bug fixes and a new free landmark, the Moonlander – as long as you vote correctly of course. Tropico 6 – New Frontiers will also be showcased during the game’s first live stream with the developers on Friday 2nd December at 6pm GMT/ 7pm CET over on Kalypso Live.
Tropico 6 – New Frontiers is out now for PC. The cosmic DLC will blast off for PlayStation 4|5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles on 15th December.
Let the space race begin!
