In Railway Empire, you will create an elaborate and wide-ranging rail network, purchase over 40 different trains modelled in extraordinary detail, and buy or build railway stations, maintenance buildings, factories and tourist attractions to keep your travel network ahead of the competition. You’ll also need to hire and manage your workforce if you want to ensure an efficient train service, whilst also develop over 300 technologies ranging from mechanical improvements to the trains themselves to workplace infrastructures and advanced amenities as you progress through five eras of technological innovations.

However, you can’t just build and research your way to the top – the competition never sleeps, and to keep your business on track you’ll have to survive against up to three rival tycoons. To get to the top you may have to resort to more cutthroat tactics as you attack and sabotage your opponents through raids and industrial espionage.

In Railway Empire: Mexico, ambitious rail tycoons everywhere will finally break free from the North American border and expand their business to the varied and challenging landscapes of Mexico. A variety of new and challenging missions will take you from the arid northern regions of the country all the way to the dense jungles of the south, as you strive to boost Mexico’s economy in a new scenario taking place from 1873-1893. The huge new map will be playable in both Free Game and Sandbox modes, while a range of new cities, goods and engines add even more opportunity for economic expansion.

As well as the new content, the DLC also introduces a new night mode, allowing players to switch between day and night whenever they wish for an all-new atmospheric take on the game, and a prime opportunity to take lots of lovely screenshots!

Along with the Mexico DLC release, the Railway Empire base game also received a free update to V1.4 earlier this week. This update provides more great additions to enhance your gaming experience including the ability for players and AI opponents to build crossings and x-crossings and AI opponents are now able to use complex track systems when the player chooses the realistic track building mode in the game settings. This update continues Kalypso’s Games as a Service commitment to all our new releases providing free updates and content enhancing the overall gameplay experience.
