Dovetail Games has released the first in a series dev diaries for Train Sime World 4, covering the new Austrian route and redesigned UI.
The train simulator genre is a surprisingly packed one, with plenty of competition, but Train Sim World has emerged as the leader of the pack and there’s a lot of interest in the upcoming fourth entry.
It launches for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC on September 26 and to get fans excited publisher Dovetail Games has released the first in a series of new dev diaries.
In it, the developers explain the newly redesigned UI and the new version of the popular livery designer, that allows you to customise the look of trains and carriages.
The dev diary also delves into the scenario planner, that allows you to set-up your own timetables, either based on real-life or your own fantasy schedules.
There’s also a discussion from lead software engineer Will about the new PC Editor tool, which allows more hardcore fans to mod the game with their own unique gameplay elements and even create new trains and full routes.
Finally, the diary discusses the Austrian route Vorarlberg, which is brand new for Train Sim World 4 and features lots of unique new scenery.
The game can be pre-ordered digitally from today, on both consoles and PC, with the standard edition costing £39.99, the Deluxe Edition £52.99, and the Special Edition £89.99.
All are 10% off if you pre-order them, with the Deluxe and Special Editions offering five-day early access and exclusive decals for the Livery Editor. Steam pre-orders also come with a soundtrack and a 15% loyalty discount if you bought Train Sim World 3.
