Sweet Transit Chugging In With A New Update

Team17 and Ernestas Norvaišas have announced the release of the second update for Sweet Transit, the city builder powered by trains, created by the former Factorio 3D artist and developer.

The update, named “Forging Forward”, offers players the opportunity to experience expanded stations with multiple platforms for enhanced creativity, a detailed blueprint library for sharing their creations with others, and take on 20 diverse challenges with varying levels of difficulty such as track merging, signalling, bridge building, and more. These challenges are designed to introduce new players to the game and challenge the skills of experienced engineers.

In case you don’t know Sweet Transit is home to a world where the railway is king and trains are the sole means of transportation and expansion. Sweet Transit sees players use these mighty iron horses to build new settlements, create intricate production lines, and grow humble villages into thriving metropolises while moving through distinct eras such as the introduction of steam power and the invention of the combustion engine.

The “Forging Forward” update also brings various quality-of-life improvements to Sweet Transit, such as a quick build feature with undo/redo options for easier correction of mistakes, steel bridges with corners for additional architectural possibilities, and improved mid-game balancing.
