Frontier Developments launched a free update for their Planet Coaster today. The summer update, among other things, brings fireworks and painted wooden coasters.
Did I mention? It's also free. The Summer Update is the third major expansion to hit the simulated world of Planet Coaster. Its predecessor was a Spring Update in April. Before that one, we had the Winter Update in December. Each season seems to have brought a new creative, management and sharing opportunities for Planet Coaster players.
The summer update this year is all about the 04 July, it seems. Independence day. The 90's movie. Jeff Goldblum, Will Smith, aliens..Now serious, there are fireworks, new video and image scenery, a new Flatride Sequencer and Painted Wooden Coasters.
