Apologies if I missed the briefing, but has a potential release date been mentioned? What sort of timescale are we looking at? This month, 1 to 3 months, within 6 months or nearer Christmas. Not expecting DTG to state the exact date as that’s probably a trade secret, but for anyone interested in getting this would be useful to balance against the mainstream DLC coming out for TSW.
The 2026 series, which someone posted about somewhere, is due out in the Autumn. I can see it being timed alongside that, or not too far away!?
I assume the release date will be revealed either next week or the week after with the Percy and James trailers.

Will this also have passengers crossing the line in front of and being struck by moving trains which, judging by the silence from DTG in the Czech route threads, is now seen as acceptable?
I’m 67 and I’ll be buying it. I grew up with the books and my kids grew up with the TV series (the original with Ringo Starr). That’s my excuse and I’m sticking with it
I do find it odd that they chose not to release it in autumn like they do with their other titles. I'm fairly certain I've heard that the end of Summer and the beginning of Autumn is the best time to release a game to make the most money. Anyone want to hazard a guess?
Possibly to get a boost before the end of the financial year ? Maybe launching in the dead season for games is a good idea for attention from the wider gaming community?
TSW 7 is set to release then. Plus it's already done. It's not "odd" at all. Release it now, start making money now.
