Transport Tycoon plots route onto mobiles this year
The "definitive" version of 1994 sim Transport Tycoon is heading onto iOS and Android this year, says AppyNation. Beyond the involvement of creator Chris Sawyer, also responsible for the Rollercoaster Tycoon series, details are sparse at the mo.
Sawyer filed a lawsuit against Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 publisher Atari in 2005 over unpaid royalties, reaching an out-of-court settlement in 2008. In May of this year, Atari Inc. filed for court approval to auction assets this month, including the Rollercoaster Tycoon rights. Since then, a number of transactions have seen Atari properties switch hands, including Nordic Games buying Desperados and Silver, and Outlast's purchase by Appeal.
