'Project Highrise' Comes to PS4, Xbox One And Switch - Trailer

by Rainier on June 7, 2018 @ 7:40 a.m. PDT

Project Highrise is a business simulator where players will be challenged to build and manage a modern day skyscraper.

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 is coming to PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch in Fall 2018.
