Tropico 3 Confirmed for North America

PRESS RELEASE posted on 14 MAY 2009 by Jim Zabek

We just got word that it's a sure thing Tropico 3 will be headed to North America.

There may not have been much doubt, but in case you were worried, Kalypso Media has confirmed that the highly anticipated Tropico 3 will be headed for sale in North America. Developed by Haemimont Games, Tropico 3 puts players in the role of ‘El Presidente’, the two-bit dictator of a strategically positioned banana republic in the Caribbean during the time of the Cold War. .

“We’re excited to expand into the North American market with a well-known and respected PC franchise,” said Simon Hellwig, Managing Director, Kalypso Media. “With a talented development team providing a fresh, creative approach to this fan favorite, we’re confident that Tropico 3 will hit the mark this September.”

As in the original Tropico, players assume control of every aspect of island life, deciding whether to unleash the army to secure their power base or lead their people to prosperity as a generous elder statesman. Will absolute power corrupt, or will the humanitarian approach spur progress? Find out this September as gamers become part of the political machinations of Tropico as they determine the fate of this island nation.

Tropico 3 will be available this September on PC. For more information, please visit www.tropico3.com and www.kalypsomedia.com.
