There have been a decent number of new additions added to Tropico 6 since it was first released back in 2019, and with 2021 being the 20th anniversary of the franchise, the content just seems to keep flowing. Today though it’s time for a real party to take hold as the Tropico 6 Festival DLC kicks off.
Available right now on Xbox, PlayStation and PC, the Tropico 6 Festival DLC will allow players on all platforms the chance to show themselves as the hottest party planner on the archipelago as they help El Presidente in the hosting of one of the most spectacular shindigs you could imagine.
Following on from seeing the game released for free via Games With Gold earlier in the year, the Festival DLC should therefore appeal to many, what with it having a decent player base right now. And when you consider what it brings, it gets better still.
It’s the Festival DLC that will enhance Tropico 6 with more than 20 festival types, all covering various eras and ideas. It also provides a new scenario driven campaign too as you take on The Boredom – an ancient evil that is threatening to engulf the whole of Tropico with some mind-numbing activities. There are also 8 new buildings included, 4 festival areas, new tunes and edicts plus a couple of additional customisation options – these should let you pick out your favourite party outfits and set the palace decor to match.
All in, expect the following…
- Party it up with the new ‘Festival’ mechanic: host 20+ types of festivals each based off different eras and ensure your soirees are the talk of the town for years to come
- New scenario-driven campaign: take on The Boredom – an ancient evil threatening to engulf Tropico in clouds of mundanity and mind-numbing activities
- 8 new buildings: make use of 4 new festival areas and ensure your parties are well equipped with new buildings like the Balloon Factory and Fireworks Factory
- Add a spring to your citizens’ step with the Dance School and keep your island visitor numbers healthy by adding a Ticket Shop for specific festivals

- 3 new edicts: experiment with exciting new features like Funhouser Special, Customer Service and Laundry Festivals
