Frontier is making a new Planet game beyond zoos and coasters

Frontier has started work on a brand-new Planet Game franchise that won’t be about zoos or rollercoasters. “We’ve started work on a brand-new Planet Game franchise, which has all the familiarity you love, but a completely new setting for us than Planet Coaster or Planet Zoo, one which still combines our love for creativity, management and meaningful simulation,” wrote Frontier’s head of player engagement Richard Stephenson in a Discord post.

Fans have been speculating about what the new game might be, with suggestions including Planet Resort, Planet Festival and Planet City. Clues may lie in nine trademarks Frontier filed on Monday, which include Planet Resort and Planet Festival alongside Planet Farm, Planet Vacation, Planet Dinosaur, Planet Prehistoric, Planet Fantasy, Planet Mythical Creatures and Planet Dragon.

Some filings look defensive.
