In this deep, multi-faceted business sim, you will create a vertical ecosystem from a wide variety of units, including offices and other businesses, with more to be revealed. Your Highrise must become the go-to destination in the city for corporate activities, shopping, restaurants, and more.

Managing your sky-scraping empire will be no easy task – growth will require a mastery of the various interlocking systems that are required for each type of establishment to thrive. Office workers will want to grab a quick lunch or coffee. Restaurants and their patrons will value location and convenience.  Throw in the challenges of implementing utilities, ensuring easy transport and navigation around the building, and of course managing your finances, and it’s clear that success in Project Highrise will be no easy task.

From the moment you break ground, every decision rests with you. As the architect you must coordinate the construction of everything - every wall and wire, every office and apartment. As the building owner you must keep your tenants happy - and paying rent on time. As a savvy developer you must keep an eye on the bottom line and invest in the future. Succeed and you will reap the rewards of a prestigious address where everyone will clamor to live and work. Fail and you will watch tenants leave in disgust, taking their business elsewhere and leaving your reputation in tatters.

Will you create an exclusive office highrise that attracts business leaders from around the world? Will you construct luxury apartments in the sky, penthouses for the elite and playgrounds for the famous? Perhaps greed will get the better of you and you’ll build a tenement building that trades tenant happiness for loads of cash? All these choices and more are yours. Success is entirely in your hands.

Project Highrise: Architect's Edition will be cutting the ribbon on 26th October on Nintendo Switch, PS4 and Xbox One in Europe, with the North American release to follow on 13th November.

As well as bringing all the content from the original Project Highrise base game, the Architect’s Edition also packs in the Las Vegas DLC as well as the content packs Miami Malls, Tokyo Towers, London Life and the brand new Brilliant Berlin in one definitive console edition.

Gamers can pre-order the game today on the Xbox Games Store and PlayStation Store.

“Everyone at Kalypso Media is excited to be releasing our first title on Nintendo Switch,” notes Simon Hellwig, founder and Global Managing Director of the Kalypso Media Group. “We tend to not think about all the work that goes into building and maintaining the homes and offices we live and work in, and Project Highrise: Architect's Edition is an engaging simulation of all the challenges and creative freedoms that this brings. The game has been a massive success on PC and mobile, and we’re looking forward to our Switch, PlayStation and Xbox fans constructing and managing the buildings of their dreams this autumn.”
