'Voidtrain' Leaving Early Access After Two Years, v1.0 Launches for PC And Xbox Series X|S In November

by Rainier on Oct. 15, 2025 @ 2:49 p.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 announced that Voidtrain will be leaving Early Access (Steam / Epic Games Store) on November 7, 2025, while also launching for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox Game Pass.

What’s New in Version 1.0:

  • The full release brings the long-awaited story finale, completing the Engineer’s journey and revealing long-kept mysteries.

  • Your train enters the Tesla Era, a major technological leap introducing a new electricity-based power system that changes how you build and expand.

  • Players can also enjoy expanded customization options, new decor sets, improved combat feel, and numerous quality-of-life upgrades across inventory, crafting, and world settings.

Let’s take a quick (and spoiler-free!) look at what’s waiting for you in Version 1.0:

Story

The final Chapter 3 concludes the journey of the Engineer - a story that began almost by accident and now leads to long-awaited answers.

You’ll finally meet the mysterious Scientist whose notes have guided you through the Void… and face the reflection that reveals your true purpose here.

It’s the emotional finale of a story that began with curiosity and ends with meaning.

The Tesla Era

With the 1.0 update, your train enters a new age of progress - the Tesla Era.

This milestone brings a complete overhaul to how energy flows through your train, reshaping the way you power, build, and expand.

Modules of this era no longer rely solely on fuel - they draw energy from electricity, gaining powerful bonuses when connected to the grid. Older modules can also be upgraded to this new standard, keeping your setup efficient without starting from scratch.

The Thermogenerator. Core of the Power Grid

At the heart of this transformation lies the Thermogenerator - the key component that fuels your entire network.

It produces electricity for all systems on board, while its interface gives you real control over your energy balance: from tracking consumption to managing output and distribution across modules.

Electricity doesn’t just add another resource — it introduces a new layer of strategy and depth to train management.

Modules can still run independently, but connecting them to the grid unlocks valuable performance boosts and efficiency perks.

The Train Tesla Engine. Expanding the Power Frontier

The Tesla Engine now plays a major role in defining your energy capacity. Upgrading it boosts the system’s overall power potential, allowing you to sustain more modules simultaneously and manage complex setups without overloads.

You can fuel the engine in two distinct ways:

  • With specialized Tesla fuel cells, designed for high-efficiency energy output.

  • Or by linking it directly to the Thermogenerator, forming a self-sustaining electric network that keeps your entire train alive and humming.

The Tesla Era isn’t just about new mechanics - it’s a leap forward in how your train feels and functions.

From a steam-powered machine (and before that - a trolley) to a masterpiece of electricity and innovation, this is the moment where your journey truly enters the future.

Train Customization

Personalization reaches a new level.

A new Asian-inspired wall and decor theme brings a fresh aesthetic to your train (we’ll share more visuals soon).

And introducing a brand-new feature - Wall Painting!

With the new Paint Sprayer, engineers can recolor cabins and walls to match their own style. Paints are dropped by New Light soldiers and other loot sources, and dyes can be mixed right in the sprayer to create your own shades and patterns.

Combat system improvements

Updated sights

The current ones might look stylish, but they didn’t do much to help with actual aiming. We’ve completely reworked them, replacing the old models with new, transparent glass sights that make aiming feel much clearer.

Faster projectiles

Ever noticed how long it takes for a revolver bullet to reach that mine in the distance — or that soldier on the next outpost? Not anymore. Projectile speed has been increased across the board, making gunfights feel more dynamic and impactful.

Full weapon stats in the Armory Table

A long-awaited feature requested by our players — the Armory Table will now display all weapon stat changes before crafting. This makes assembling and customizing your weapons faster, easier, and far more transparent.

Quality of Life & System Improvements

Here are just a few of them: inventory and container sorting. Simplified and more automated resource management. The ability to adjust many aspects of the game to your liking through the World Settings - including combat difficulty, item stack sizes, and more. New container tiers and upgraded container racks - and much more to discover!

If you’ve played the game before, you’ll be able to pick up your journey from the same point you previously reached.

However, if you decide to start a new playthrough, you’ll discover a fresh experience as well — over the course of Early Access, a lot has changed.

Beyond the features mentioned above, the overall game balance has been reworked, unnecessary cycles have been removed, and a huge number of quality-of-life improvements have been added.

The full release marks a huge milestone for our team — and it wouldn’t have been possible without your feedback and support throughout Early Access.

Thank you for helping us make VoidTrain what it is today.

And remember - what we’ve shared here is just a glimpse.

Version 1.0 brings many more surprises, improvements, and secrets waiting to be discovered aboard your train.

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 is coming to Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam / Epic Games Store) on November 7, 2025.
