Major Update #5 - Migrated the game to a newer engine version
Trans-Siberian Railway Simulator Patch Notes — June 12, 2025
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
We’ve finally migrated the game to a newer engine version. Thanks to this, nircmd and the extra executable file are no longer needed to run the game on 10th-gen Intel CPUs and newer.
In addition, we did everything on the list below:
Day-Night Cycle & Random Weather Variation
Added a dynamic weather system with snow and fog.
Added snowflake effects on the locomotive’s front windows during snowfall.
Fixed the sun’s movement across the sky, improving sunrise and sunset positions.
Adjusted day-night lighting.
Gameplay
Simulator Mode: flashlights are now available for purchase in shops.
Survival Mode: introduced a new weapon, the RPG-7. You can find it in a special location near Izhmorskaya station. (It’s not yet available in Story Mode).
Survival Mode: new explorable locations. You can find ammunition in these new areas:
Abandoned Military Base (between Anzherskaya and Sudzhenka)
Old Factory (Izhmorskaya)
Yuri Ivankov’s House (Antibesskaya)
Abandoned Building (Suslovo)
Barrack (between Bogotol and Vagino)
Abandoned Department Store (Chernorechenskaya)
Performance
Significantly improved performance of the Measurement Apparatus illumination.
Optimised Buffer Lights and flashlights.
Improved overall lighting performance.
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where the police would never stop chasing you.
Fixed a bug where the glass could clip into the camera while drinking at the bar.
Reduced the frequency of navigation-system-related crashes.
What’s Next?
We’re heading back to work on the continuation of Story Mode and have further optimisation plans in the pipeline. Thanks for your support!
