Rail Route’s Co-Op Update is Live!
Hello Dispatchers!
We’re excited to announce that the Co-Op Update is now live!
This update comes as we celebrate the one-year anniversary of Rail Route’s 1.0 release. To mark the occasion, we’re offering our biggest discount yet – 50% off! It’s the perfect time to invite a friend and play Rail Route together.
We have added co-op multiplayer to all three game modes, so you can now enjoy Rail Route with friends! Adding multiplayer to a finished game like Rail Route was a big challenge, but we found a good way to do it using the lockstep technique.
While we have worked hard to make multiplayer smooth, desynchronization issues can still happen. Our amazing Discord community helped us find and fix many problems, but there might still be a few left. Please be patient as we continue to improve multiplayer.
We believe multiplayer is a great addition to Rail Route, and we hope you enjoy this free update as much as we enjoyed making it!

If you’d like to support our team and future free updates, we’ve released a small optional DLC – the Curated Map Pack. This pack includes carefully selected community-made maps that we think are fun and interesting to play. Each map has been slightly improved and included with the author’s permission to ensure quality and playability. If you don’t want to search for great maps yourself, this pack is for you!
If the game desynchronizes, it means that the client and host might see different versions of the game. At first, these differences may be small and hard to notice, but they can grow over time.
If you experience this, we recommend the client reconnects to the host. This refreshes the game state and should fix the problem.
If you want to help us find more desync issues, you can enable the automatic game state checker in the debug panel (F2). This tool checks the game every 2 minutes and reports any differences. If you find an issue, please send us the logs from all players involved so we can investigate!
Thanks for reading, and happy dispatching!
