April 11, 2016 – More than a visionary, you are the heart of the economy, giving life to the cities and shaping their futures as you conduct the flow of commerce through elegantly designed networks of transit and shipping in Transport Fever, coming to PC later this fall.
Whether by land or sea or air, Transport Fever draws upon 150+ years of history with over 120 detailed trains, aircraft, ships, buses, trams, and trucks that age as time passes.
Construct stations, harbors, and airports, linking hubs of trade to meet the needs of evolving cities and shifting populations. Upgrade your infrastructure to keep up with the times and connect cargo chains to enable economic growth as you establish your transportation empire.
Let your imagination run wild in Transport Fever’s endless mode, or put your planning skills to the test in campaign mode with historically inspired missions from Europe and North America. Creating new roads and rails is simple with Transport Fever’s flexible tools, as it features arguably the most intuitive and powerful track construction tools ever seen in a game. This allows any player to easily adapt to, or even modify, the randomly generated terrain. But the fun doesn’t have to end here, as there will be a wealth of content available to players thanks to game’s extensive modding support through Steam Workshop, which allows players to further explore the depth of their imaginations and create brand new empires.
All of this adds up to make Transport Fever the next generation of transport simulation games, and helps it to represent the next step forward in the genre that the beloved Transport Tycoon series breathed life into so many years ago.
Coming to PC this fall, Transport Fever is the follow-up to the fan-favorite simulation game, Train Fever, and the second collaboration between Urban Games and Gambitious Digital Entertainment. Transport Fever features an upgraded railroad and street construction system, brand new boat and plane transport simulation options, campaign mode and improved UI.

April 7, 2016 – Fitted with the finest technology in the universe, Eldar ships are fast and highly maneuverable. They pack serious firepower, with incredible damage projection and application. Their strategy is based around hit-and-run assaults, taking their targets by surprise while inflicting maximum damage. Their speed allows them to disappear as fast as they arrived, as shown in today’s Eldar trailer. Eldar ships are as fast as they are fragile – they lack in any heavy armour. With the exception of their battleships, their craft are not fitted with shields, instead relying on advanced Holo-fields in conjunction with their speed and agility to avoid incoming fire. This makes them extremely hard to track and hit with conventional weaponry. Destroying Eldar ships’ engines is the best way to keep them at close-range, ensuring you have enough time to inflict lethal damage.
The Eldar fleet will be joining the beta next week! They will be ready to pit their guerilla tactics against the Ork’s brutal manoeuvres, the Chaos’ long-range gameplay and the Imperium’s balanced style, during epic and tactical space battles. Eldar fleets are built around strategies based on speed, surprise and sudden firepower, offering a brand new gameplay style and deep tactical options for Battlefleet Gothic players.
Battlefleet Gothic: Armada releases two weeks from now– and thanks to the tantalizing fun offered by the Beta, almost 100,000 players have already preordered the game. The current beta players, along with all who join them, will be able to help Tindalos balance the Eldar fleets as soon as next week, just like they have the other three factions. This will ensure the best possible experience when the game releases on April 21.
Players can preorder Battlefleet Gothic: Armada’s Early Adopters Edition. This edition is available to all players who preorder the game, as well as those who buy the game up to two months after release. Early Adopters will receive the Space Marines fleet + one additional fleet (more info coming soon) for free, as well as instant access to the beta. Battlefleet Gothic: Armada will release April 21 on PC.
