Following four examples of landmarks and their game-impact:

Tropico 6 will be the most beautiful game in the franchise and will feature a greater range of visual variety, ensuring that everything will always look like the paradise on earth that the Tropican foreign office would have you believe it is…



Classic Tropico gameplay: the player fills the role of the (mostly) benevolent dictator El Presidente to rule his/her state with an open heart and an iron first. Make decisions for everything that is going on in Tropico; from crops and wages to big decisions like your immigration policy or your relationships with the major superpowers of the world.



Everything in the game is simulated. Tropicans have their own needs, like a craving for entertainment or the hope for a fair wage, which players will need to fulfil in order to win the next election. If things are not looking good, El Presidente can still send certain insubordinate individuals on a long vacation…just to make sure.



Tropico 6 will feature a more challenging balancing act for the different factions and superpowers. Juggling the approval of the different political parties will be more nuanced, and getting everyone’s approval is an achievement reserved only for the most skilled and righteous of Presidentes.



Tropico 6 will feature more buildings out of the box than any Tropico before: 150+ buildings will give players the tools for every situation and offer a lot of visual variety for players who just want to build a Caribbean paradise. Tropico 6 will also feature new means to improve the infrastructure by building bridges and constructing specialized buildings such as landings, bus depots and aerial cable car stations.



Be the dictator you want to be: Players can express themselves by customizing their avatar, their palace and election speeches.

The Factions

The Superpowers

Faction escalations happen, if one or more factions do not agree with El Presidentes actions. For example, the intellectuals can hack into the Swiss bank account of El Presidente and freeze his/her funds.



Superpower escalations can lead to an embargo, which can result in a block on trade for important goods.
