The ninth DLC for the Railroad Empire
In the new DLC, trains were running fast during the late 19th century in Japan. The industrial revolution is imminent. The Japanese people want a national railway network. And this desire will become reality after the successful Meiji restoration: people from the former feudal territories travel to the growing capitals. And the player? He ruthlessly laid trails between beautiful mountains and the Sea of Cherry Blossoms. Farsightedness, good planning, and smart strategy – of course. You will experience a mixture of commerce, railway management and industrial espionage, and thus a lot of variety in the gameplay. Previous DLC locations are Australia, Sweden, France, Germany, Great Britain, Canada, the United States, and Mexico. “Railroad Empire – Japan” is the ninth expansion of Railroad Simulation.
