Dear community,
Big news! The Unreal multiplayer build has now reached the closed alpha version! For the last two months we have been testing the entire game under real multiplayer conditions in order to provide a smooth gameplay experience upon release!
A lot has happened during this last and very busy half year: We have added a lot of new rolling stock, various industries and freight types, realtime landscape editing features, and a stunning 16km^2 open world map. Also we have been growing as a team - alongside with our playerbase on Steam and our fanbase on the Discord server counting now 400+ members.
We have built a completely new game in the Unreal engine with more content than ever. Because of the sheer size of the update and the countless hours spent working on it i also have decided to start a professional carrer in this industry as a game developer.
As a result we have decided to release the Unreal version as a brandnew, separate game:
RAILROADS ONLINE!
Besides all the mentioned features above RAILROADS Online! also comes translated into 10 different languages for all railroading fans around the world!
Therefore we will not overwrite „American Railroads“ - keeping it as the nice little Unity game for you to enjoy.
We are truely very grateful for your continuing support and would like to thank you for sticking with us for so long by offering you a special 10% discount in the first week upon release!
Everything regarding the release of RAILROADS ONLINE! will be posted in the following days right here as we are going to launch our first trailer very soon! There is still a lot of work ahead of us but we are confident that we will provide you the railroading experience you all are hoping for.
As always i will let the screenshots of the latest progress speak for itself.
Thank you!
Stefan
