The summer solstice just got a little brighter as Atari announced today that developer Frontier has completed RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Soaked!, the first expansion pack for the successful RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 franchise. Scheduled to ship to retail outlets nationwide on the longest day of summer, June 21, RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Soaked! is perfectly timed because the game invites players to create and control their own water parks just as the summer vacation season gets underway.


RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Soaked! offers players more than 50 new rides and coasters, many of which are built around a water park theme, including swimming pool complexes, massive water slides, wave pools and amazing interactivity with water, including stirring up swimming pools, firing water cannons at park guests and a brand new interactive water-based coaster called The Roller Soaker! New Swimming Pool and Waterfall Designers will enable players to add hundreds of enhancements and the RCT3 MixMaster has been expanded to allow players to customize dazzling laser light, firework and water shows using the player's own music library.

Players can also create marine spectaculars with performing dolphins, killer whale shows and custom-designed aquariums. The new tunneling system opens up a whole new set of opportunities, with tunnels both underground and under water.
