Dovetail Games Tsw August 2025 Roadmap Q & A Thread

The FAQ state that "compatible content" will be available to download on 30th September. Does this mean that early access players won't be able to download their entire collection purchased for earlier versions of TSW on the same platform and account before 30th September or will it be only the five additional DLC included in the special edition or will the players preordering the special edition won't get access to those 5 legacy routes until 30th September? How will it work this time around?
I seem to recall that last year with TSW5 I was able to download all of my TSW4 content on day one of the early access period.

 

Thanks for your reply. That's a real shame, because it's actually a great feature. In my opinion, it just doesn't make sense in its current state. While I can switch to the other route quickly, I have no idea when the next scheduled train departs.

 

By the way they were talking about it on the stream and based on the roadmap post, besides the real-life technical differences between the classes, It sounds like it'll brand new 3d modelling (and even systems work?) all-round. I certainly hope that's the case, and if it is then maybe in the future all aboard can do their own version of the 802/801 as well. Speculation though!

 

Yeah, running to the hopping point, then to see the train you just drove comes in from another track is quite weird

 

Will the riviera sleeper be included?
