Atari previews 2026 gaming slate including RollerCoaster Tycoon Wonderworks

Atari is focusing on its retro gaming heritage with several upcoming projects announced for 2026. During a recent preview session in Los Angeles, the company showcased its strategy of reviving classic franchises and releasing curated retrospective collections.

A primary highlight is the upcoming title RollerCoaster Tycoon Wonderworks. The game is described as a modern take on the classic theme park builder, featuring a “toy box” aesthetic and childlike charm. It aims to balance nostalgia with quality-of-life improvements, including a tech tree, customizable ride visuals, and various park management challenges such as managing ride closures and crowd control.

Other notable upcoming projects include the Atari x Activision Collection and the return of a popular fighting game from the turn of the century. Under the leadership of Wade Rosen, Atari continues to leverage its historical brand recognition to drive its current development and publishing slate.
