Our quick take

Planet Coaster Console Edition initial

Park life

Phat controller

Character filled

To recap

Planet Coaster follows in the tradition of classic theme park simulations, such as Rollercoaster Tycoon and, well, Theme Park. And, like the latter title, it makes the jump to console well. Certainly, our biggest worry - controlling the game by joypad instead of mouse and keyboard - seems to be allayed. We’ll know more when the final release arrives, but everything’s looking good so far.
