Sandbox Update

Whether you want a zenned-out ride or a white-knuckle trek, your preferred style of travel is just a few adjustments away.
  • Classic Mode: Enjoy a simplified, focused challenge in building routes as far as you can manage without juggling the complexity of upgrades or worrying about pesky boss battles.
  • Two New Playable Characters: Build a dam good friendship with Bernd the beaver or get stuck on the adorable new cactus named Spike.
  • New Ability-Granting Cartridges: Add the Claw Cartridge to your haul to gather tools from afar, or equip the Insta-Hit Cartridge for a chance to instantly give NPCs a one-way ticket to meeting their maker.
  • Recreated Classic Songs: Whistle while you work to four new recreations of songs hailing from the original Unrailed's soundtrack, recalling nostalgic melodies as you ride the rail.
