Packed with a whole host of new gameplay features and all new artwork
designed from scratch, Tropico 5 takes the series into a new and exciting
direction – dynasties!
You, as El Presidente, will first take control of the infamous island of
Tropico during early colonial times and then guide it through the centuries as
the world changes and moves ever forward. You must tackle the changing needs of
your people, as well as opposing governments and factions, and thus lay the
foundations for your own dynasty. As you move through your years in office you
can promote members of your extended family on the island to positions of power:
such as ambassador, commanding general or even Supreme Ruler, to ensure your
legacy thrives through the eras. As your influence and wealth grows, so do the
threats to your burgeoning island superpower. Can you survive both World Wars,
prosper through the Great Depression, rule as an iron-fisted dictator through
the Cold War and advance your country to modern times and beyond? From the 19th
to the 21st century, each era carries its own challenges and opportunities.
As well as a wealth of other new features, including advanced trading
mechanics, technology, scientific research trees and island exploration, Tropico
5 will add cooperative and competitive multiplayer for up to four players for
the first time in the series' history! Viva El Presidente!
