Tropico 5: Penultimate Edition is a strategy-simulation game developed as part of the long-running dictator-themed Tropico series, released for Xbox One in 2016. Players govern the fictional island nation of Tropico across multiple historical eras, beginning in the colonial period and progressing into the 21st century and beyond. Gameplay involves managing a dynasty's rule while navigating mechanics centered on trade, scientific research, exploration, and technological advancement. The title introduces multiplayer modes alongside its single-player campaign. This Penultimate Edition bundles the base game with two downloadable add-ons — "The Big Cheese" and "Hostile Takeover" — as well as five exclusive maps not found in the standard release. The combination of long-term dynastic progression and era-spanning challenges distinguishes this entry from earlier installments in the series.
