#the Ghostbusters DLC for Planet Coaster is about to be delisted

This is likely to be brief discover, however Frontier Developments simply introduced that, as of September 6, 2024, the Planet Coaster: Ghostbusters DLC shall be delisted from storefronts. The DLC first got here out in 2019. As it’s licensed content material from the film, its days have been at all times numbered, and it appears like these days amounted to (a bit over) 5 years. Nonetheless, just a little extra discover would have been appreciated.

The Ghostbusters DLC options decorations and rides primarily based on the movie franchise. The Ghostbusters Expertise trip additionally features a type of interactive mini-game. There’s additionally a “narrative” marketing campaign that includes the voice of Dan Aykroyd and William Atherton (Who? Oh, Peck!). It was praised as being a reasonably sturdy growth, whereas different licensed DLC for the sport have been extra beauty.

I didn’t get it at launch. I simply purchased it upon listening to the information as a result of I really like Ghostbusters (not the brand new motion pictures; I didn’t watch them). I’m not fairly as eager on Planet Coaster, however there’s at all times the prospect I’ll discover the spark that will get me into them. Don’t get me improper, it’s a advantageous recreation for what it’s, however I like extra problem from my administration video games. 

I’ve performed Planet Coaster and Planet Zoo, however I discover that it’s means too straightforward to earn cash, after which the problem of it disappears. I get that some individuals play these video games to make their dream parks, however that sounds extra like stage design to me. I want Curler Coaster Tycoon the place there’s some problem to balancing the books.

Sadly, it doesn’t look like the Ghostbusters DLC is getting marked down earlier than it’s delisted. With the brief discover, I ponder if it hit Frontier moderately abruptly. They’re saying that when you have been subscribed to their subscription move, they’ll add the DLC to your account without cost in order that when you constructed one thing utilizing the gadgets, you gained’t lose entry. Wait a minute… you could possibly simply subscribe to that for a month and get the DLC for a fraction of the value. Crap.

As a reminder, Planet Coaster 2 has been introduced for this Fall. I’ll in all probability play that, too, and can probably be reminded as soon as extra that these simply aren’t the forms of video games I’m in search of. I by no means be taught.
