- Big Catch DLC Is Coming This October - 15 September 2026
Hello, Engineers!We’re ready to reveal our next DLC for VoidTrain, Big Catch, coming this October! Turns out, you don’t need water to go fishing.

Once you’ve unlocked everything, any Scales left over can be spent on Reward Bags containing extra resources. Traveling with friends? The leaderboard will show who really knows their way around a fishing rod and who’s still telling stories about the one that got away. Great news for players who purchased the game on the Epic Games Store as well: the new DLC and all previously released ex…

- You've got just 24 hours to grab an atmospheric open-world survival crafter for more than a third off as it hits 1.0 - 12 November 2025
Many of the best survival games lean towards realism, but I've always appreciated those that are prepared to get a little more out there, whether it's the Victorian 'gaslamp fantasy' aesthetic of Nightingale or the gravity-warping sci-fi of Once Human. So Hypetrain Digital's Voidtrain has long been on my watchlist. Set in a surreal, floating space called The Void, it sees you building a full-scale engine and wagons to traverse the world around you. A unique spin on the format with vibes that remind me a little of the mighty Outer Wilds, it's just hit 1.0, and you can grab it at a big discount if you're quick. Read the rest of the story...
