Kalypso Media and Independent Arts Software have revealed that railroad simulator Railway Empire is setting course for Nintendo Switch on 14th February 2020.

This new Switch edition of the game will be arriving both physically and digitally and includes the full main game, as well as a number of DLC packs. The Mexico DLC, Crossing the Andes DLC, and The Great Lakes DLC will be included as standard, while the Germany DLC, France DLC, and Great Britain & Ireland DLC will also be available to buy separately from the Switch eShop.
