Tropico 6 – Nintendo Switch Update 1.0.5
Fellow Tropicans,
Tropico 6 Update v. 1.0.5 has now been released on Nintendo Switch™.
This huge, major update adds new content, such as new maps, the very helpful Resource Overview, the “Secure Mansion“, new modern military building, the “Overwatchtower” and more. The Overwatchtower offers the ability to uncover hidden roles of passing Tropicans: nothing escapes the eyes of El Presidente!
Of course, Update v. 1.0.5 also contains some improvements and bug fixes. For example, we’ve addressed a bug that prevented the special “Make Party not war” festival from disappearing in the mission “The Final Party”. Similarly, a bug that meant the festival areas do not show the festival cooldown for the client has also been fixed.
Check out the Changelog below in its full glory!
Viva Tropico!
