Sweet Transit launches brand-new 'Forging Forward' update today on Steam

SWEET TRANSIT FORGES FORWARD WITH A BRAND-NEW  
EARLY ACCESS UPDATE  
 
Blow off some steam with 20 brand-new scenario challenges; share engineering masterworks with friends and the community with the new blueprint library, and build more complex stations in the second update to the train-powered city building game. 

Wednesday, 8th February 2023 – Team17 and Ernestas Norvaišas have today announced that Sweet Transit, the train-powered city builder by the ex-Factorio 3D artist and developer, has released its second update: ‘Forging Forward’. With the new update, players can enjoy expanded stations with multiple platforms for even more creative creations; explore a detailed and easy-to-use blueprint library through which they can share their masterworks with others, and take on 20 unique challenges with varying difficulties including track merging, signalling, bridge building and many more, designed to introduce newcomers to the game and test the nous of veteran engineers.

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.  

 
In addition to new content, Forging Forward also adds a variety of quality-of-life improvements to the game, including a quick build ‘Undo/Redo’ action, allowing players to easily fix their mistakes; steel bridges with corners for extra architectural opportunities; and additional mid-game balancing.
