About the Game

All aboard the express train to riches and fame in Railway Empire 2! Don the coat of a clever entrepreneur, take over a small railway company in the early 1800s and turn your steam engines into the workhorses of the economy. Grow your company into the largest railway company of the continent and outsmart your competitors as you connect cities and companies with an ever-expanding network of rail lines, bridges, and tunnels. 60 famous locomotives are at your disposal, all pulling freight and passenger cars as they usher in an era of historic importance during the Industrial Revolution.



Railway Empire 2 features bigger, more detailed and lively maps than ever before. The whole of the US and continental Europe are covered in two huge, sprawling maps, whilst more detailed maps put the focus on specific regions of each continent. Improved track construction helps you focus on the important decisions as you drive the economy and help the growth of the cities. Signals are placed automatically, bridges can hold up to 4 tracks and the expandable train stations can now have up to 8 tracks.



Choose from 6 different characters to lead your railway company, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Play the 5-chapter campaign or choose any of the 14 different scenarios. Set your own difficulty in the fully customisable Free Play mode or build the perfect rail network in construction mode. Tackle the competition of your railway empire together with friends in Co-op Multiplayer. You can also board one of your trains and gaze upon the scenery passing by as the iron horse speeds along the tracks while you sit back and enjoy the view.

So close, but so far. I like the track laying. General aesthetics. But it feels goofy and disappointing next to the classics. The core problem of this game is it is so arcady and goofy in the maps. Why even bother using

The game has fundamental, unsolvable logistics issues. Once you try to manage high-volume goods, station throughput bottlenecks make it impossible to maintain 100% satisfaction. Furthermore, the lack of train AI for

None of the DLC are worth getting because none of them let you use the trains in the main game. Basically, you are losing trains, because there are less in this game than in it's predecesor, so they can sell them back

The game is too finicky. Setting up rails and directions and stations, carefully following instructions always seems to have a problem. I spend more time trying to figure out what is wrong than actually playing. I wish

Pretty broken and un-optimized game, I do like the gameplay loop up to a point but it's a mess after a certain point. Devs seems to be only interested in dumping out DLCs to make money nowadays...

I bought this game thinking it would be a fun game to play with my kids. Turns out this game is definitely not a game that 12 year olds can play easily. LOL Instead, I am completely engrossed in this game and have spent
