Today, we are excited to announce that Cinema Theater Tycoon will launch in version 1.0 on 09/11/2026, priced at $14.99 on Steam.
To celebrate the announcement, here is our new Release Date Trailer:
Cinema Theater Tycoon is a top-down pixel-art management game where you build, customize, and operate your own movie theaters.
Starting in 1906, you will guide your business through more than a century of cinema history. New technologies, audience expectations, film distribution methods, and visual styles will appear as the years pass, forcing you to constantly adapt the way you run your theaters.
You will choose which films to screen, design your auditoriums, hire and manage employees, set your prices, improve customer satisfaction, organize special events, and eventually expand into multiple locations.
Whether you want to carefully optimize every part of your business or simply create a beautiful and lively cinema, the game is designed to let you develop your own management style.
What to Expect at Launch
Cinema Theater Tycoon will launch directly in version 1.0, with the complete core experience available from day one.
You will be able to:
Build and customize every part of your cinemas.
Program films across multiple auditoriums.
Manage employees, prices, equipment, and customer services.
Discover and acquire films from around the world.
Follow the evolution of cinema from 1906 to the modern era.
Organize premieres, masterclasses, cine-concerts, and other events.
Open and manage multiple movie theaters.
Build your own cinema empire.
Our Post-Launch Roadmap
The release of version 1.0 will not be the end of development.
We currently have four major DLC expansions planned, each designed to introduce substantial new content and new ways to experience the game.
Alongside these expansions, all players will receive free updates featuring additional cosmetic items, narrative content, improvements, and other surprises.
We will reveal more about each update and expansion when the time is right.
For now, our priority is making version 1.0 the best possible foundation for the future of Cinema Theater Tycoon.
