  • RailGods of Hysterra - Patch #1 - 18 May 2025

    The Corpse Preserved Beneath Rhan-Tegoth’s Frozen Patience Once, even in death, Dreamers were denied stillness, gnawed by timid beasts while the RailGod slumbered, their remains scattered by idle chaos. But now, beneath the glacial vigilance of Rhan-Tegoth, the deathless idol entombed in ancient ice, the cycle comes grinding to a halt. The fallen forms of the Conductors shall remain untouched, preserved in the hush between heartbeats, while only the meek creatures retreat. The Sigils of Difficulty, Bestowed by Azathoth From the throne of screaming void, Azathoth stirs, no longer content with a single game mode. And so, the very fabric of reality twists to his will. Hosts may now summon forth trials of varying torment: Easy, where the horrors linger yet strike softly, Normal, the current balance of Hysterra, Hard, where death lurks in every encounter, Custom, a favourite of Azathoth, and…

  • RailGods of Hysterra - Hotfix #5 - 13 May 2025

    Whispers from the Server Depths The RailGod has evolved and her powers have expanded. Upon inspection, we have found new settings to fine-tune her performance. Server Options have made their way to the game. By manipulating these options, the Conductor may use their RailGod's power to manipulate the laws of Hysterra. For now, only one option exists, to control Satiety Depletion Time. From a mere 10 minutes for the truly brave to 25 minutes for those too faint-hearted to endure longer. Though called server options, this is available for both Single Player and Multiplayer. Recovering More of Humanity's Languages - Polish After successfully establishing a connection to Türkiye and Korea, the maintainers of the Endless Railways set their sights on Poland. There, creatures known as Shantak, allied with the Outer God Nyarlathotep, were actively oppressing humanity, giving the RailGod an excel…

  • RailGods of Hysterra - Hotfix #4 - 12 May 2025

    The Sprint of the Dreamer For too long, your stride was tangled in the invisible nets of Yog-Sothoth, the Lurker at the Threshold, whose presence bends both space and time. Every movement echoed through warped angles, slowed by unseen doors and temporal distortions. The RailGod, being a fan of speed, countered the powers of Yog-Sothoth, allowing her conductor to sprint freely! To run, please hold Shift The Crafting Paradox Unraveled Why forge twin relics when one is desired? As the RailGod and the maintainers of the Endless Railways inspected and fixed the workbenches, an answer was found. Shub-Niggurath, The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young had infected some of the workbenches with her perverse nature, causing them to multiply their output beyond what was needed. We mortals cannot comprehend the reason why this Outer Goddess involved herself in this way, but know that we h…

  • RailGods of Hysterra - Hotfix #3 - 10 May 2025

    The gears grind, the steel groans, and once more, the whispers of the Conductors echo through the corridors of code. In the dark heart of the RailGod, adjustments have been forged. Witness the latest offerings laid upon the tracks in fire and determination: The Chains of Command Loosen The host of a multiplayer game once was the sole bearer of the title of "Conductor". Now, with the RailGod's approval, the host may choose to bestow fragments of their authority upon fellow Dreamers, giving them the right to be Conductors as well, thus letting them take on a greater role in their game. The Dance of War, Unleashed by the Tune of Azathoth. A pact was made, one signed in blood by the developers, in the secret book of Azathoth. Now, the thin flutes pipe their chaotic melodies across Hysterra, reverberating through time and combat alike. The rhythm of battle has been torn from the grasp of rea…

  • RailGods of Hysterra - Hotfix #2 - 8 May 2025

    The shrieking of the wheels grows softer, for the Conductors have cried out, and the Keepers of Code have listened. Behold, the latest adjustments carved into the rails with rust and resolve: The Beasts Now Bite Softer – All enemies have had their strength and health reduced by 20%. For those who seek a more tormented form of thrill, worry not, for new rites of difficulty shall soon emerge from the Dreamlands. Sanctuary Restored – Upon returning to your RailGod’s sweet embrace, your battered body shall be made whole once again, and your injuries will instantly recover. Let it be known that the RailGod cares for her own. Time Itself Halts - In solo journeys, pressing the ESC key shall now pause the tides of chaos. Inventory Imprisonment Broken - A curse was discovered in some inventories. Nyarlathotep, who delights in the madness of mortals, placed a curse on the inventories. A few unluc…

  • RailGods of Hysterra - Hotfix #1 - 8 May 2025

    The Engineers of the Endless Railway have declared that various bugs and issues that plagued RailGods of Hysterra shall be fixed. DX12 Banished - That cursed rune, DX12, has been sealed away! The madness that it brought with it caused much of the instability. Thus, DX12 shall slumber until its madness is tamed. The Chains of Time and FPS are Reforged - No longer shall the framerate run wild like a shoggoth on fire. 60 FPS shall now be the sacred norm, with 30 and 120 offered to those who crave either serenity or frenzy.

  • RailGods of Hysterra — Story Trailer - 22 April 2025

  • A Small Delay for a Greater Journey: Launch Moves to May 7 - 8 April 2025

    Dear Dreamers, Last week, we shared the exciting news that we are launching RailGods of Hysterra - Early Access on April 23rd. However, after recent internal playtests and feedback from our dedicated testers, we've realized that we need just a bit more time to ensure the experience matches the quality and depth you've come to expect. Your excitement and feedback have inspired us to refine key features, enhance the game's stability, and improve the overall gameplay. This is because it is essential to us that your first experience with RailGods of Hysterra is both memorable and truly satisfying. With that in mind, we've made the difficult decision to move the Early Access launch from April 23rd to May 7th, 2025. This additional time will allow our team to polish the game further and deliver the immersive, Lovecraftian experience we envisioned. We deeply appreciate your patience, understan…

  • Whispers of the Rail: A Glossary of Hysterra - 4 April 2025

    Recovered from a rust-stained carriage, found adrift on the Endless Railways. Entry #7 – Lexicon of Hysterra Great Old Ones Some call them gods, but I refuse. They are calamities given form, vast and ancient. When they returned, Earth wept blood. Each reshaped the land into their vision of what a playground of madness would look like. Yes, I wrote returned intentionally, for this was not the first time that they roamed the Earth. Dreamers They are the sleepers, led by Lovecraft before the Great Old Ones returned. They gathered in secret and were sent to the Dreamlands to find a way to save the earth and humankind - but in a way that would become real in the Waking World. It was in the Dreamlands that they created the RailGods, and how the RailGods came to reality. The Endless Railways The Endless Railways is a marvel of oneiric engineering, a self-repairing track of living metal that wr…

  • April 23 – The Dreamers Awaken - 26 March 2025

    When the Great Old Ones returned, the world was shattered. Billions perished. The survivors? Scattered, half-mad, clinging to remnants of reason. Time, space, and even memory were twisted under the will of ancient gods who reshaped Earth beyond recognition. The gods divided what remained among themselves and each began terraforming their territory to their liking. Yet not all was lost. Before the world fell, one man, H. P. Lovecraft, saw the signs of the impending doom. He gathered Dreamers from across the globe; visionaries, mystics, and outcasts, all united by a single purpose: to save humanity. Together, they hid themselves in mausoleums and crypts, suspended themselves in a supernatural sleep, and descended into the Dreamlands. There, beyond the reach of the Great Old Ones, they sought knowledge from ancient priests, brilliant polymaths, and forgotten professors, until finally, in t…

  • Guns N' Foes: Choose Your Weapon, Embrace the Chaos - 24 March 2025

    RailGods of Hysterra is not your average survival game. Instead of a cabin in the woods, your home is a living, tentacled train, a monstrous RailGod that you are symbiotically bound to. You are a Dreamer, part mage, part scavenger, part god-touched survivor, and you'll be exploring Hysterra as you set forth on the Eternal Railways with your RailGod to gather resources, and expand your mobile base… all while managing your sanity in a world corrupted by the Great Old Ones. Combat in RailGods of Hysterra is a fusion of early-industrial firearms and forbidden magic, granted to you by the RailGod itself, though there is a price to pay if you choose to accept its gifts - your humanity! The latest trailer, Guns'N Foes, showcases many of the weapons and combat styles in the game, from handcrafted pistols, Victorian rifles, mystical blasts, and even your bare fists (if you're brave enough). Marc…

  • Lovecraftian survival game RailGods of Hysterra shows off its weapon arsenal - 24 March 2025

    We've seen a lot of survival games in the past couple of years. While some stick to Valheim and The Forest's tried and tested formula, we've seen Nightingale put a 'gaslamp' spin on the standard fare and, of course, Palworld's viral creature-collecting. RailGods of Hysterra , however, is changing things up yet again, placing your base on a roaming steam train that houses a Lovecraftian god. You'll make your way through the Dreamlands, power yourself up, and collect resources to expand out your home away from home. Oh, and you'll also be collecting sacrifices, but it's not as bad as it sounds, trust me. Read the rest of the story...

  • Embracing the RailGod's Gifts - 21 March 2025

    "You could stay human. You could keep your fragile sanity intact. Or… you could take the gift offered by the RailGod. But to gain power, something must be given in return, that something is your Madness. For those who serve the RailGod, Madness need not be a burden, it can be a currency. The question is, how much are you willing to spend?" Before you can wield Madness, you must understand it. In our previous article, Of Madness and RailGods, we explored the origins of this mechanic. We spoke of how Madness evolved from a punishment into a choice, even becoming something akin to a currency that can be traded for power, and how it manifests not just as a mechanic, but as a psychological experience. If you haven’t yet read that article, we recommend starting there to grasp the full weight of what Madness truly means. For this article, we will be diving into Madness again, but this time it…
