SCHAFFHAUSEN - October 1, 2024 - Urban Games and NACON are pushing the boundaries of what console games can do by introducing cross-platform mod support with the new Transport Fever 2 Autumn Update.

Unique cross-platform mod support

What for a long time seemed impossible is starting to become reality. Transport Fever 2 is bringing mod support to consoles - a still unique and highly anticipated feature, solving one of the biggest downsides for console users during the last decades. Transport Fever 2 takes a leading role in the genre and introduces seamless cross-platform mod support (including core game script mods) using mod.io, allowing players on PC, PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S to access the most beloved of over 15,000 mods.

The extensive available Steam mod library has led to an impressive average playtime of 113 hours per player. This remarkable number proves the significance and excitement that players have for mods.

To celebrate this exciting update, Urban Games has released the highly community-requested “Early Supporter Pack” DLC at a 4.99€ EUR / $4.99 USD / £4.49 GBP price tag on all platforms as of today.

"We’re excited to bring Transport Fever 2 mods to consoles, enabling the creativity of our phenomenal modding community to be shared and enjoyed by all. The Autumn Update connects the entire Transport Fever 2 community across all platforms for the very first time.”

— Basil Weber, Founder & CEO of Urban Games

More game-changing improvements

Additionally, to mod support the Autumn Update introduces several further features improving the overall Transport Fever 2 experience. The new and completely reworked road traffic system offers a more realistic and engaging traffic simulation, and constructing roads and railways is now much more intuitive, to name only a few enhancements warmly welcomed by the exceptionally loyal community. Urban Games has created a special community update video that can be found here.

The final major update for Transport Fever 2

After five years of continuous development, the Autumn Update represents the final major update for Transport Fever 2. Urban Games has something new and great in the pipeline, with an exciting next project on the horizon.
