Having dabbled in the Early Access version for a couple of years now, I can confidently say that this game has been a hidden gem, waiting to be polished and unveiled to the world.
After a span of three years in Early Access, the open-world sandbox simulation game called Railroads Online is set to officially debut on December 5, becoming available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam. This announcement was made jointly by the publisher astragon Entertainment and developer Stefan Kelnberger.
Railroads Online first launched in Early Access for PC via Steam on October 1, 2021.
