Planet Coaster 2: A Roller Coaster of Revenue Disappointment

Unexpected Financial Flop

In a recent investor analysis report from Zeus Capital, it has become clear that Planet Coaster 2 has not succeeded in hitting the revenue highs anticipated by the company. Despite achieving over 400,000 unit sales within two months and raking in over £10 million, the report notes that the ‘cash flows are still negative.’ This raises many eyebrows, as it appears that not even the most ardent fans are shocked at this outcome.

Mixed Reviews Dampen Sentiment

The game currently holds a less-than-stellar 60% positive review rate on Steam and a score of 3.69/5 on PlayStation. Analysts predict a ‘lower revenue sustain rate’ than Frontier’s previous titles. The inclusion of console releases and aggressive discounts just one month post-launch have significantly contributed to these less-than-encouraging assessments. Of course, when you couple this with a lukewarm reception from the gaming community, it’s not hard to guess why the outlook feels fractured.

The Road Ahead for Frontier

Frontier is not taking the criticism lightly, promising free updates and fixes aimed at boosting player sentiment. However, this places a heavy demand on development resources, potentially stalling the release of planned DLC in H2 2025. The hope remains that future titles, like Jurassic World Evolution 3, licensed under notable IPs, can compensate for the revenue losses occurring from Planet Coaster 2’s discontent. As they say, the best of rides are often the ones that provide a second chance.
