Tropico 5 Gets Global Release Date

It won’t be long until you’ll be sitting on the island of Tropico as El Presidente as Kalypso Media have announced the release date for Tropico 5. The PC version launches globally on the same day, with console and Mac versions arriving later.

A reminder of what Tropico 5 is about:
You, as El Presidente, will first take control of the infamous island of Tropico during early colonial times and then guide it through the centuries as the world changes and moves ever forward. You must tackle the changing needs of your people, as well as opposing governments and factions, and thus lay the foundations for your own dynasty. As you move through your years in office you can promote members of your extended family on the island to positions of power: such as ambassador, commanding general or even Supreme Ruler, to ensure your legacy thrives through the eras.
