Survival game Railborn announced featuring a train and mysterious aliens

Washbear Studio is preparing an unusual survival game called Railborn. At first glance, it is a classic survival game where you gather resources to survive and build a shelter. But in reality, players will have to restore the environment and their own train.

Players will start from scratch, gathering rare plants to bring dying biomes back to life. Travel across the world takes place along railroad tracks, and the mobile shelter is a train that is gradually built car by car. The player explores mysterious alien monoliths and abandoned colonial outposts.

Players will need to take full control of the train — from resource allocation to system tuning. The outside world is dangerous: threats of starvation, suffocation, and death. The goal is to lead a rescue expedition that will change the fate of the dying planet.

Railborn is designed for 1–4 players and will launch in Early Access on Steam. Future plans promise multiplayer, a detailed storyline, a tech tree for upgrading the train, and much more.

The release date has not been announced.
