Train Sim World 3 Update 1.18 Patch Notes

Dovetail Games hasn’t released the patch notes yet, but it has announced what’s coming with the DLC. Get ready to save Christmas! Climb aboard a miniature train set and track down the mischievous elf running around a 1980s living room. Train Sim World 3: The Holiday Express – Runaway Elf Add-on is coming Tuesday 13th December!

But someone is up to no good. With the clock ticking down to midnight on Christmas Eve, a mischievous elf is running riot around the living room, moving presents and batteries to where they shouldn’t be! By the time you’re at the helm of the miniature locomotive, these items need to be tidied and the culprit brought to justice… It’s Richie Rails to the rescue!

Once Christmas has been saved, then it’s time to relax with the living room train set. Locomotives and units from Train Sim World 3 and Train Sim World Compatible content can be swapped out through Scenario Planner, allowing you to thread some of the fastest, largest and longest trains through the living room’s landmarks. Speed past the sofa with the ICE1 or haul heavy freight below the hearth with the ES44C4. And with Livery Designer, adding a splash of color to your trains can make it a uniquely casual Train Sim World experience.

Train Sim World 3: The Holiday Express – Runaway Elf Add-on arrives for Train Sim World 3 on December 13th for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Epic Games Store, and Steam! It will be available for £7.99/$9.99/€9.99. For more information on this patch, head to the official developer site.
