Tropico 3 is an upcoming 2009 politics and city building video game developed by Haemimont Games and published by Kalypso Media and it is a sequel to Tropico. The game will return to the roots of the series, putting the player into the shoes of "El Presidente" - a dictator governing over an island banana republic. Staying true to the spirit of Tropico, the new game will be a construction and management simulation with heavy emphasis on city building. Tropico 3 is scheduled to be released on October 16, 2009 for Xbox 360 and PC[2]

Development

Tropico 3 has been developed by Haemimont Games for both Xbox 360 and PC. Currently, a closed beta is taking place, with accepted participants receiving a copy of the game and providing vital feedback to the developers. New features, presented on the forums and on the main website, include vehicles and a customizable avatar which you can move around the island, interacting with the environment and population. Like the original Tropico, the developers aim to preserve the tongue-in-cheek humor of the game, as well as the basic game-play. Haemimont Games is presenting Tropico 3 in a new 3D game engine.
