2* DuelingGames: With ''[[VideoGame/RollerCoasterTycoon RollerCoaster Tycoon World]]'', released by Atari. ''VideoGame/{{Parkitect}}'', a smaller game that more emulates the first two ''[=RollerCoaster=] Tycoon'' games dueled the former alongside ''Planet Coaster''. [[CurbStompBattle Largely one-sided, however]] as ''Planet'' and ''Parkitect'' were received well by ''RCT'' fans old and new, whereas ''World'' floundered with poor critical reception due to bugs, poor graphics and a general lack of polish. ''World'' had 32% positive Steam reviews on November 19, shortly after launch, whereas ''Planet Coaster'' had 94%.
3* OfficialFanSubmittedContent: To celebrate the release of the Go-Karts update, Frontier held a contest to build the best layout. The winning track, Princess Amelie's Castle Karts, was made an official blueprint in the next update.
