RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D

The fourth installment in the series, RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D has been officially announced recently for the Nintendo 3DS portable game system. The game will be developed by n-Space and published by Atari. The legal section on the bottom of the official website also credits Chris Sawyer, so there is a possibility that he is working on the game as well. It was scheduled to be released around March 2012 in North America as Nintendo World reported. But this date was missed and the release date was then set to May 22, 2012. Unfortunately, the release date was further pushed back. Its current release date is now 25 October 2012 in Australia and October 16, 2012 in the United States.

It will feature a Coaster Creator and a Sandbox mode. Like in RollerCoaster Tycoon 3, the player will be able to ride the roller coaster he constructed.

On September 7th, 2011, a teaser trailer has been released, only confirming the year of release and the teams that are working on the game.
