Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.

WE. ARE. BACK!
Did you miss us? Because we definitely missed you.
Today, we’re incredibly excited to finally share with you what we’ve been working on over the past couple of years. Construction Simulator has grown tremendously thanks to your support, your feedback, and the countless hours that everyone involved has put into it.
Now it’s finally time to unveil the next chapter in the franchise.
Say hello to Construction Simulator: Evolution – the biggest leap we’ve ever taken with the series.
Our reveal trailer premiered during the Galaxies Spring Showcase 2026, and you can watch it right here:
Now grab your hard hat. It’s time to break ground.

Construction Simulator: Evolution takes the series to a whole new level and introduces the most immersive construction playground we have ever created. You’ll operate a massive fleet of officially licensed machines, take on manual labor work, and for the first time in the franchise you’ll not only build – you’ll also demolish!
As you grow your construction empire, you’ll expand your vehicle fleet and take on challenging construction contracts across two stunning maps - Maienstein, inspired by idyllic German landscapes, and Amber Falls, inspired by a Midwestern city in the United States.
Your goal is simple: take on larger and larger projects, satisfy demanding clients, and grow into the footsteps of the biggest builder in town!
And if you’re a long-time player of the series, you’ll notice improvements the moment you step onto the construction site.
Of course, no construction site works without the right equipment.
Construction Simulator: Evolution features the most varied and extensive fleet of vehicles in the history of the franchise. From excavators and wheel loaders to cranes, dump trucks, asphalt compactors, and specialized demolition machines, you’ll operate a huge range of machines from globally renowned manufacturers such as Caterpillar®, CIFA, JCB, Kenworth, Liebherr, SANY, and others.
Construction Simulator: Evolution welcomes several new globally esteemed manufacturers. For the first time in the franchise, you’ll be able to operate heavy machinery from companies such as Ammann, Sennebogen, Volvo Construction Equipment, and more, further expanding the already impressive lineup of licensed equipment.
Long-term players will probably have spotted it immediately: yes, Volvo machines have finally arrived at the job site. 🎉 And yes, we’re as excited as you are!
All in all, more than 180 officially licensed construction machines from over 35 world-famous brands are ready to prove their power and reliability on the construction site.
And of course, every builder needs the right outfit. With the new Character Editor you can customize your worker with workwear options, safety gear, and color variations to create your personal look for the construction site. Licensed outfits from Bobcat and Strauss make sure you’ll look the part while getting the job done.
Sometimes progress means building something new. And sometimes… it means knocking the old stuff down first.
For the first time in the Construction Simulator series, you’ll take on demolition contracts alongside construction projects. Using powerful hydraulic hammers and specialized machinery, you’ll clear space for future developments and watch buildings come down thanks to realistic destruction physics.
But the work doesn’t stop with heavy machinery.
Construction Simulator: Evolution also lets you get hands-on: plaster walls, operate hand tools like jackhammers, shovels, nail guns, and more. This exciting combination of large-scale machinery and manual labor creates the most immersive construction site experience the series has ever delivered.
Some construction jobs are simply too big to handle alone.
Construction Simulator: Evolution allows you to team up with up to four players in multiplayer and coordinate your work across massive construction sites. Overcome difficulties together, push each other’s motivation to new heights and be proud of what you have accomplished as a team.
And thanks to crossplay, platform boundaries are not an obstacle. Everyone can join the construction site and get the job done together.
Sometimes you just want to jump straight into a machine and start working.
With the new Quick Play Mode, you can dive straight into the action. Choose a pre-configured construction activity with selected machines, jump into the driver’s seat, and get straight to work.
