Dev videos explain new features step by step
The West will become even wilder: with today’s update saloons and shops will be open for business in Daedalic Entertainment’s and Coribe Games’ Railroad Simulation. In Saloons, you can cut lucrative but risky deals with outlaws. And mastering these deals require the right equipment from gunshops or pharmacies.
Also, engines and cars are now even more customizable. More cargo space or armor plates? No problem! After all, every engine driver should be prepared for the new random encounters which can be their very own boon or complication…
There are several more extensive updates planned until the final release in summer 2016.
Yurij Ishchuk, CEO of Corbie Games, explains in this video series what new content and changes are featured in this update. You can find the first dev-videos here:
