    Train Sim World 2 itself was released during the second half of August last year, so I would expect Rush Hour around that time this year as well. But there's nothing official yet.

    I have a wager with a few friends, my date is the 26th Aug.

    Whoever wins basically gets Rush Hour paid for by the money in the pot and the 313 DLC when that comes out.

    Nice fun wager amongst friends.

    It does seem that if rush hour goes as scheduled, that it will release 19/26 of august. Hopefully the Announcement n thursday is not isbeing delayed. Personally, I think last gen consoles are being discontinued and that BKL SKA ad SPG arenot going to be included in TSW2 and Rush Hour ROutes will be Standard while BKL SPG SKA become DLC (Downloadable Content)

    Dunno what schedule you're seeing but there isn't any that anyone outside DTG has seen.

    And cut off a large part of the playerbase? Ain't happening.
    We already know this is not happening.
    Rush Hour is a bundle of 3 routes.
    The Core Update is releasing at the same time.

    That's what's happening. The Current core routes are staying.

    I think nearly everyone here knows what DLC stands for.

    Don't forget that just a few weeks ago the developers didn't even know how they would use the power of the new consoles. For the dedicated PS5 / Xbox Series X|S patch they were still only "looking at" what might be worth doing. They claimed it just a few weeks ago in one of their live streams. So it's safe to say that the patch (and therefore Rush Hour, since the two will arrive together) is still well under production. If they can keep the Summer timeframe at all. There's nothing stopping them delaying it to September if additional work is required. So a release date announcement is still far in my opinion. It's still only the middle of July.

    Indeed, and Autumn doesn’t officially start until 21st Sept so there’s plenty of leeway left yet.

    True technically, though here in the US we always figure Summer ends on Labor Day, which this year is September 6th. Still, as you say, plenty of time left for an announcement and a release.

    Thursday’s stream has been changed from TSW2 Announcement to a Question and Answer stream.

    My guess for the Rush Hour release will be Thursday August 19th.

    I can imagine the content of this stream will be as follows:

    DTG: We will not be revealing a release date for Rush Hour in this stream.
    5 minutes later: When is the release date for Rush Hour?
    DTG: We will not be revealing a release date for Rush Hour in this stream
    5 minutes later: When is Rush Hour going to be released?
    DTG: We will not be revealing a release date for Rush Hour in this stream.

    And so on and so forth for 90 minutes.

    Just checked online, normally it’s the 22nd September in the northern hemisphere, and 22nd March in the southern. I guess the US likes to be different. ;-) Anyway, as DTG is a British outfit, we can assume it will be out before the 22nd September unless announced otherwise.

    Nah, It will be August. Last three editions have all be released around the same date, the third Thursday in August. Cannot see why Rush Hour should be any different, besides they have TS2022 to work on for a September release as soon as the work on Rush Hour is completed.

    There are different teams making them but the releases are handled by the same team.

    They also said on the Roadmap stream before they announced next gen versions of TSW for Rush Hour that they had no plans to do a "next gen" version of TSW, so excuse me if I take that statement with a sizeable pinch of salt.

    "Launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S with improved framerate, service layers, draw distance and shadows."

    Given that it's already running at 4K 60FPS on Xbox Series X, what's the improved framerate going to be, 120FPS?

    Also, disappointed that improved 4K textures seemingly aren't a thing.

    Yeah I mentioned this absence in another thread. The last gen console textures are dreadfully low res, hopefully this will be confirmed in the Q&A tonight.
