Publisher Kalypso Media and developers Gaming Minds Studios have presented the first gameplay trailer for Tropico 7. In it, regular players (who were unlucky enough not to participate in the closed beta) will see the updated management capabilities of their paradise island.

“Some study history, while others create it… with varying success,” declares El Presidente. — “Today I am the governor, and tomorrow—head of state! My power is limitless—it stretches over every street and district, over mountains and seas.”

In the trailer, the island flourishes under the careful guidance of its leader. Streets are laid through bustling neighborhoods, presidential ambitions are literally poised to move mountains, and citizen loyalty is directed in the right way. “El Presidente doesn’t just govern; he stylishly conducts chaos,” notes the official message from the Ministry of Propaganda and Disinformation. “Every street and every building serves a specific purpose, and every citizen is part of the grand design of a brilliant leader.”

In the first dev diary, the developers from Gaming Minds Studios talk about the city-building and political system, as well as how laws and decrees work in Tropico 7.

Tropico 7 is scheduled for release in 2026 for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass versions, as well as on PC (Steam, Epic Games), Xbox PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation®5.
