Epic Games has revealed the official release date for their upcoming train title Railgrade, which is coming to Nintendo Switch and PC. This is a somewhat futuristic management simulator game in which you'll be in charge of several railways, and you'll need to design systems to get supplies and other necessary items from one point to another. While the setting may be on another planet, the mechanics are familiar if you've played any title in which you need to build rail systems and guide precious cargo around. The game will release on September 29th, but until then, enjoy the trailer and more info from the devs.
