Cancel Your Elections - El Presidente has Announced Tropico 7! First teaser gives a glimpse of the all-new council– which El Prez will, of course, try to bend to his will. We have lifted the curtain (no, not the iron one) on Tropico 7, the next evolution of the award-winning city-building series. The beloved El Presidente is back — whether the people like it or not — cutting his luxurious vacation short (reportedly under protest) to personally oversee the announcement teaser at gamescom 2025.

With all those cities he's built over the last few years in Tropico 6, I'd hate to think what El Presidente's carbon footprint looks like. Clearly, the environmental guilt has got to him, because Tropico 6's new expansion is all about embracing nature and making your cities greener. The Return to Nature DLC is the ninth to hit the strategy game, which shows no signs of slowing down. Read the rest of the story...
