The original creator of RollerCoaster Tycoon is bringing widely acclaimed RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 to mobile

In 1999 Chris Sawyer and his team created RollerCoaster Tycoon, a realistic simulation that took place inside a theme park.

At the times it was in 2D but it was quite exhilarating to have the freedom to create the craziest Roller Coaster you could imagine.

Eventually the series became wildly popular, spawned sequel and then the franchise was transferred to Frontier who brought it out in full 3D.

A port of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 was released last year on mobile but for those looking to recreate the feeling of the originals, Chris and his origin8 studio are working on bringing RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 as announced in an interview with Eurogamer.

It's not the first game that they've released on mobile as Transport Tycoon was also one of their franchises. And since the port was great, I have high hopes for this one too.

Let's hope it will come with its expansion packs too!
