News: If you are a fan of simulation games then you definitely should check out this train sim game for Xbox One.

Train Sim World: Founder’s Edition was recently released on Xbox One and is something you should really take a look at if you enjoy these types of simulation games. If you have ever wondered what it would be like to drive a train and do everything that goes along with it then this is the game for you. The game is fairly extensive as well as authentic, something every good simulation should be.

Among your responsibilities there is driving, turning, stopping and making sure you are on schedule. You are an employee of the Great Western Railway and you will be driving on some of Britain’s busiest train tracks. You will be on a 24-hour schedule that matches the actual Great Western Railway schedule. For those who have taken these trains in real life it should be pretty cool seeing the routes you have been on. If you haven’t ever been over to Britain then it is kind of cool to know that if you have to be at a certain stop at 10am, the exact same thing is happening real life.

Train Sim World utilizes Unreal Engine 4 along with Dovetail Games’ proprietary SimuGraph engine. The development team has utilized real-world data to replicate the sound, feel and performance of these trains. Initially it might seem a tad overwhelming trying to learn everything but for those who enjoy simulations it is well worth getting familiar with everything. For those who are beginners there are tutorials to ease you into everything as well as some advanced procedures for veterans of these games.

For those who are interested Train Sim World: Founder’s Edition is available for $29.99. You have three different locomotives at your disposal that will allow you to explore the different train routes that people actually take on a daily basis.
