For the first time in a game of this type, you develop your business to become the biggest rail company in Europe: hire drivers, buy new trains and achieve your contractual objectives! Play as both the driver and company director! Take the controls of your locomotives and grow your railway empire by negotiating deals and developing your network.

Take the controls of your train…
…and travel across Europe with passengers and merchandise. In the Early Access version, drive through Germany, riding in the cab of several different locomotives. Each of these locomotives has its unique characteristics (power, braking, etc.) that you need to fully master to be as effective as possible. Take your passengers through astonishingly beautiful lands, including both town and country, forest and mountains.

You not only have to drive the trains, but you also have to grow your company by optimizing your Passenger and Freight activities. Choose a name, a logo, purchase locomotives, and hire drivers, giving them new contracts and exploring new tracks. You must also maintain your locomotives to prevent breakdowns and handle emergency repairs. You are free to accept or refuse contracts: make the right choices, earn money and develop your company!

Train Life : A Railway Simulator will be available in early access August 31, 2021 on Steam, followed by the Epic Games Store at a later time.

The Early Access version of Train Life: A Railway Simulator lets you drive four different locomotives across Germany and create your own company. You will already have lots of freedom when driving your train through the in-cab gameplay, so you can familiarize yourself with the game basics.”

New content will be added regularly throughout the period of early access, including some legendary trains and, ultimately, 10,000 km of track across Europe. This detail and scope, along with dynamic weather, mean each voyage will be a unique experience. Get your ticket for Train Life: A Railway Simulator now!

Train Life involves demanding gameplay based on real-world behavior. You have to respect the rail signals and driving instructions, adapt for rail switches, and manage speed. Make sure you keep an eye on braking distance when you pull into the station and open and close the doors for your passengers. There are also unforeseen situations to manage, such as fallen trees, stalled cars, and trains rolling on your track.

The dynamic weather and day/night cycle mean you have to adapt the way you drive to avoid accidents and damage to the tracks.

This unique management aspect is supported by the game’s detailed trains and driving system. NACON and Simteract have paid special attention to modeling the trains to ensure the game is both fun and authentic.

Train Life: A Railway Simulator is in development for PC, scheduled for full release in 2022.
