Kalypso Games will no doubt be looking forward to the release of Tropico 5, after they confirmed that the strategy sequel has already secured an impressive number of pre-orders, four times as many as Tropico 4 was able to manage.

The game, which sees players governing over a tropical island through several generations, has actually secured more pre-orders than any other game released by the publisher, and that's just for the release on one of the four planned platforms.

Tropico 5 is heading first to PC (on May 23), and will follow in the summer on Xbox 360 and Mac, with a PlayStation 4 version set to arrive in the autumn. Ahead of our review, you can read our preview here.
