About RollerCoaster Tycoon World
RollerCoaster Tycoon World™ brings the classic park‑building formula into a next‑generation 3D space. Players can design coasters with a spline‑based editor, shape terrain, and populate parks with a huge library of rides, shops and scenery. The game also offers a mission‑driven Progression Mode and an unlimited‑resources Sandbox, letting creators experiment or chase objectives.
Integrated social tools let you share creations through Steam Workshop, compare stats with friends, and import custom 3D items. Detailed management screens track finances, guest thoughts and heat maps, while advanced physics give rides a realistic feel. All of this runs on Windows with full controller support and Steam Cloud saves.
01 / THE GUIDE
3D Coaster Editor
The spline‑based editor lets you manipulate tracks in full 3D, enabling any shape you can imagine. This is described as the best track editor ever, allowing complete control over coaster geometry.
Tracks can be curved at almost any angle, and the editor works alongside freeform object placement, so you can align supports and scenery precisely.
- Experiment with extreme angles early to see how the physics respond.
- Use the curved‑path options to match coaster turns with surrounding scenery.
02 / THE GUIDE
Fully Deformable Terrain and Water
Parks can be built on terrain that you reshape in three dimensions, including water bodies. This lets you place rides on hills, cliffs, or islands and modify the landscape to fit your vision.
Deformation works alongside the piece‑by‑piece builder, so custom buildings can sit naturally on the altered ground.
- Create gentle slopes for smoother coaster launches.
- Combine water features with themed objects placed near your rides.
03 / THE GUIDE
Brand‑New Progression Mode
Progression Mode offers a mission‑based campaign across three world maps, with dozens of objectives that grow in difficulty. Completing missions awards Research Points.
Research Points unlock over 100 new scenery items, which become available in Sandbox Mode, expanding creative options.
- Prioritize missions to earn Research Points toward scenery items that suit your preferred park theme.
- Balance financial goals with guest happiness to finish objectives efficiently.
04 / THE GUIDE
Sandbox Mode
Sandbox Mode provides unlimited resources for building any park you desire. All items unlocked in Progression Mode are automatically available, and you can also access the full library with a single button press.
The mode supports the same 3D editor, terrain tools and piece‑by‑piece builder, giving you a limitless canvas.
- Use Sandbox to prototype coaster designs before tackling mission constraints.
- Test different themed zones without worrying about finances.

Social Features and Steam Workshop
Native Steam Workshop integration lets you share custom rides, scenery and whole parks directly from the game. Friends lists and stat comparisons let you see what others have built and when they last edited.
Social media sharing is built in, so you can post creations without leaving the game.
