Unrailed 2: Back on Track changes
Heya engineers!
Today is the day!
After over 1.5 years of early access Unrailed 2 has reached 1.0. That means 1.5 years (well more if you count the beta) of updates based your feedback, bug reports, and content ideas which have all helped shape the game. Here's all the things we've added over this time:
Now importantly, here's an overview over what we've added for the 1.0 update specifically:
You're still here?! Whoa.
Great, let's take a closer look at these new features down below!
New Biome & Boss
Hidden beneath the other biomes is the Underground Unit, the newest biome in Unrailed 2. Finding the entrance is one thing, but getting out again with the train in one piece is a WHOLE other challenge!
Too easy for you?
Then you might just be ready to face the head of the United Railway Division...
Emoji Remapping
A feature that has been in high demand in our community has been the ability to remap the emoji in the emoji wheel. There's a whopping 111 emojis for you to choose from, but if you still miss one, let us know and we'll add it!
(Technically this and the new languages were already added in the 1.0-launch-prep-update, but since we did not announce this with a big featuring we wanted to make sure nobody missed these new features!)
New Characters
Skelly the skeleton and Mortimer the mummy join the roster of Unrailed characters.
We've also added a couple of new hats and backpacks for you to equip.
Speedrun Highscores
A feature highly requested by our pro-community: Speedrun highscores. You can now compete to be the fastest player that beats the game in endless mode to the credits, to the endboss and in classic mode.
You can check out the rankings here: https://u2.unrailed-online.com/#/speedrun
New Languages
Czech, Italian, Turkish and Ukrainian are now supported languages in Unrailed 2! To switch to your preferred language go to language tab in the in game settings.
Papercraft Templates
On popular demand papercraft templates return to the Supporter Pack!
You can now build your own piggybank wagon or giraffe character.
We've also added two extra wallpapers for you to decorate your desktop with. If you do not already have the supporter pack you can get it here:
Unrailed 2 Back on Track Supporter Pack
Updated Soundtrack Now Also on Spotify & Co
With the new biome we've also updated the soundtrack on Steam with the new tracks, it now includes a whopping 51 songs!
The soundtrack is now also available on Spotify and other streaming platforms if that is your thing.
Crossplay
A quick note about crossplay: If you want to play online together with consoles, make sure that crossplay is enabled on the online tab of the settings menu on all devices. Also make sure that your game installation is up to date.
A Big Thank You to You!
We want to thank everyone here and over on our Discord server for supporting us through the early access with bug reports, feature requests, fan art, by achieving higher and higher highscores and just for making Unrailed a game where you can start playing with randos that turn into friends!
We're incredibly proud how positive and helpful the community is towards each other and especially newcomers. Just stay the way you are!
