Get Ready to Drive: Train Sim World 6 Announced for September 30
Dovetail Games has officially announced Train Sim World 6, the next installment in its popular train simulation series, set to release on September 30. Players can look forward to new adventures across various routes and a host of exciting improvements designed to make every journey unique.
Expect the Unexpected: Dynamic Random Events Enhance Gameplay
A standout new feature in Train Sim World 6 is the introduction of optional random events and train malfunctions. Developers stated that players should “expect the unexpected,” as these incidents will ensure that no two journeys are alike. From signal failures to unexpected speed restrictions, drivers will need to stay alert and adapt to ever-changing conditions, adding a fresh layer of challenge and replayability to the simulation experience.
Explore Three New Routes Across the Globe
The new installment brings three distinct routes, offering diverse landscapes and train operations:
- The Morristown Line (USA): This route takes players through the suburbs of Morris and Essex counties, connecting New York City to Dover. Drivers can operate classic Arrow III electric multiple units or the ALP-46 locomotive with bi-level cars. The Deluxe Edition further expands this route with the dual-mode ALP-45DP locomotive.
- The Riviera Line (UK): Journey from Exeter to the charming coastal towns of Plymouth and Paignton in Britain. This scenic route features GWR's Class 802 “Intercity” and Class 150/2 “Sprinter” trains. Upgrading to the Deluxe Edition adds modern BR CLASS 220 trains from CrossCountry.
- The Bahnstrecke Leipzig – Dresden (Germany): Explore a major German railway line with modern ICE-T and BR 442 trains. For those who choose the Deluxe Edition, the iconic DB BR 294 diesel locomotive will also be available.
