Triple Thrill Pack was later released on digital distribution platforms such as GOG.com and Steam. This was followed in 2004 with the release of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2: Triple Thrill Pack, which was a compilation of the base game and both expansions on a single disc. Instead both expansions were developed by Frontier Developments, who developed the Xbox port of the original game, and would go on to develop the entirety of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and its spiritual successor, Planet Coaster.ДЄround the time of Time Twister's release Atari released RollerCoaster Tycoon 2: Combo Park Pack, which was a compilation of the base game and Wacky Worlds on separate discs. Each packs were based around themes and didn't have any involvement from the series' creator Chris Sawyer. The first pack, Wacky Worlds, was released in May 2003, the second pack, Time Twister, was released in November 2003. Much like with the first game, two expansion packs were released for Roller Coaster Tycoon 2, which included new rides, facilities, and scenarios. As with the previous game, players could upload their saved track designs onto the now-defunct 'Ride Exchange.' Track designs from both games can later be imported into RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 where they are no longer locked to the isometric views.

When creating a scenario, the player can save to any of the tabs. The 'Real' tab contains the Six Flags parks preconstructed, while the 'Other' tab contains their empty versions. Guests' AI was improved from the original game, allowing for the creation of more complex paved areas.ДЄll of the scenarios in RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 are available at first launch (which contrasts RollerCoaster Tycoon's unlocking system), and they are divided into five folder tabs: Beginner, Challenging, Expert, Real, and Other parks. The game also contains a variety of new themes and music for attractions. Many popular rides in Six Flags amusement parks can be used in other scenarios, but are locked from editing. Walibi Holland and Walibi Belgium were also under the Six Flags brands during development, and were also included. Players can make and test their own roller coasters to save them for use in other levels with the Roller Coaster Designer, and the game includes a licensed promotion by Six Flags to include their own content and scenarios based on five of their amusement park branches, including Magic Mountain, Great Adventure, and Over Texas. A scenario editor is introduced, which allows players to create their own scenarios, creating the landscape, setting objectives, and selecting available rides and scenery. The 'bulldozer' allows the player to remove multiple pieces of scenery instead of only one piece at a time. User-created scenery items make a debut in this title.

Some old ride designs have been merged with others. Many of the rides from the original RollerCoaster Tycoon have been modified and/or renamed. The mechanics in the predecessor made custom building construction less efficient, and rides and shops were previously unable to be built at varying elevations in that game, only rides that had tracks could be built underground, since the first section of any ride had to be placed above ground. The game provides greater flexibility by allowing pieces of scenery, rides, and other structures to be placed at varying heights above and below ground. One notable difference from RollerCoaster Tycoon is a more robust system for building structures, in which one can lay each piece of wall and roof individually. Players must balance their budget in their expenses and income while doing this. The player satisfies the needs of the visitors by building food stalls, bathrooms, and souvenir shops as well as facilities and services, such as ATMs and information kiosks.

Various attractions, including transport rides, gentle rides, thrill rides, roller coasters, water rides, and shops or stalls, can be added to the parks as well as landscaping and decorations. The game returns to isometric projection which debuted with the predecessor, allowing for a large degree of compatibility. RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 tasks players with managing amusement parks in different scenarios with the goal of having them succeed in different ways. The features and expansions were later ported to RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic in 2017. Developed by Chris Sawyer Productions and published by Infogrames, the game was released in October 2002 as the sequel to RollerCoaster Tycoon and the second game in the RollerCoaster Tycoon series. RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 is a construction and management simulation computer game that simulates amusement park management.
