Overview
- Atari published the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic on the Nintendo eShop on Thursday, May 28, 2026, and the new version is available to buy now in major regions.
- The standalone Switch 2 release is listed at $29.99 / £26.99 while owners of the 2024 Switch edition can purchase a $5 upgrade pack to move to the Switch 2 build.
- Key technical changes are an enhanced resolution for the new native build and optional mouse control support compatible with Joy‑Con input.
- RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic is the 2017 Chris Sawyer remaster that bundles content from the original RollerCoaster Tycoon and RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, including the Toolkit, Wacky Worlds, Time Twister expansions and 95 park scenarios.
- The release follows the original Switch port’s late‑2024 launch and its post‑launch patch that added touch controls and visual options, and some coverage notes that the modest upgrade fee may prompt discussion about how much technical change should cost players.
