'Voidtrain' Comes to Steam Early Access With Huge Content Update Next Week

by Rainier on May 3, 2023 @ 10:00 a.m. PDT

Voidtrain is a fresh take on the survival genre - you control and upgrade your own train in an endless adventure full of surprises and dangers.

Become a crew member of an interdimensional express! Discover a new mysterious world inhabited by amazing creatures, dangers and surprises. Upgrade your train, gather new materials and build better weapons!

You play as mechanics who have fallen into a new world for them with their own rules and laws. Discover it, learn to survive in it, explore it. Immerse yourself in a new amazing adventure.

Explore a vast ever-changing world full of mysteries and unique places. Discover floating islands with puzzles and dangerous fauna. Make your way through minefields and visit depots. Meet adorable Rofleemo and make them part of your crew. The Void has much to offer for those seeking adventure, so get ready to accept its challenges!

You won't simply expand the train, but you'll build it yourself from scratch. Start with an empty trolley and develop it into a proper train with multiple wagons and an advanced engine. Customize the look of your train and fill it with all sorts of objects: from storages and workbenches to decorations and tables for mini games.

The Void is a dangerous place, and you’ll face a variety of enemies on your way: from regular soldiers to bloodthirsty sharks. Craft and customize your weapons and equipment, escape from being chased, stand against multiple enemy waves in the arenas, clear outposts and be prepared to constantly fight for your life.

HypeTrain Digital is thrilled to announce that Voidtrain will release into Steam Early Access on May 9, 2023 with a 10% launch discount. The game is already available on Epic Games Store, where it has sold over 100k copies since Early Access launch in August 2021.

“The game is playable both in solo and in online multiplayer mode for up to 4 players with a complete prologue and first chapter of the storyline, a train which you can upgrade up to the diesel era, several biomes with Witch Islands, Outposts and Arenas, challenging enemies, dozens of technologies to research, side quests, and much more. All of the core mechanics are already implemented into the game, so you’ll have everything to travel, build, craft and survive in the Void.”

"We’ve been working on this version of the game for over a year, so it’s full of new content and features: from new story chapters to updated AI & NPCs, new train modules, minigames, and much, much more. In addition to bug fixes and balance tweaks, we plan to enhance the game's core mechanics based on player feedback, add new story chapters with new locations, quests, enemies, and mechanics, and introduce additional side content to make Voidtrain more immersive, engaging, and diverse.”

Key Features

  • The Interdimensional Express: Start with a tiny trolley. What comes out of it further depends on you. Build, expand, customize, choose the type of engine between different eras - and play the game your way!
  • Discover the void world: Together with your mechanic, learn to survive in a new environment. A unique world with its own rules - where gravity sometimes does not apply. Gather resources, explore the stations and islands scattered along the way, and hunt the creatures that inhabit them.
  • Unique adventure: The generation of the environment, events and objects around the player, as well as the choice of the player himself, will make every adventure you have in Voidtrain truly stand out. Each time there's a new path to go on, new lands to discover, and a new train to build!
  • Floating islands. A lot more dangerous than they look and infested with unique fauna. Use your weapon arsenal to drive them away. Explore the islands for resources and loot.
  • Puzzle islands. Solving the puzzles earns players special rewards.
  • Build the locomotive. Players will face many obstacles on the way, including floating minefields, large flying predators and more. Upgrade the train's defense capabilities to overcome the challenges.
  • Interdimensional train depots. The depots are the interim stops between worlds (biomes), taken over by Nazis. Players will have to defeat the Nazis and free their hostages. Doing so awards generous rewards. Each depot allows players to enhance their train.
  • Void Cards. During the depot stops players can use special items to make their next journey a lot more difficult. With higher risks comes higher rewards.
  • Increasing difficulty. The better equipment and train progression you have, the harder the challenge becomes, scaling with your abilities.
  • Available in single player, or in online multiplayer with up to 4 people.

Voidtrain will be released for PC (Steam / Epic Games Store) in 2024.
