Developer Stefan Kelnberger and publisher Astragon Entertainment have officially announced that Sandbox railway simulation Railroads Online is scheduled to launch later this year for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, while also exiting Steam Early Access. Set in a large, open game world, players can build tracks, switches, and stations to create a functioning industrial network. The game features over 20 historically accurate locomotives, representing the golden era of steam engines in the United States from the 1870s through the early 1900s. These include notable models such as the Montezuma, Baldwin steam engines, the Class 125, and the “Betsy.” Many of the locomotives in Railroads Online no longer exist or are only preserved in rare instances. The development team has used specialist publications, preserved documents, and museum models to recreate them as accurately as possible.
