Hey strategy fansWe have some exciting news to share: multiplayer has officially arrived in the Next Fest demo! For a limited time, you can jump online, challenge your friends, or match up against rival players globally to see who can build the most profitable network on the map.Rule the Rails Globally
The demo is officially a battleground. It’s time to test your strategies against real human brains:

  • Intense Auctions: Go head-to-head bidding on the most lucrative tracks.

  • Strategic Sabotage: Create clever bottlenecks or funnels, cut off your opponents with shortcuts, and steal their passengers.

  • The Network Effect: Optimize your routes and take advantage of the network effect like no one else.

Limited Time Only!
Because this is part of Steam Next Fest, the multiplayer will only be live in the Demo for a limited time. Don't wait, grab your friends, download the update, and find out who truly rules the rails. As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts! Jump into our Discord or the Steam Discussion forums to leave your feedback and report any bugs you find during your matches. Good luck out there, and happy building! The Rail Estate Team
