A new offering from famed developer Saber Interactive, RoadCraft, will be debuting in 2025. With the classic deformable terrain but with a heroic spin to the story mode this time, RoadCraft could be one of the titles to watch in 2025.

Simulation fans have a lot to be excited about this festive season with the announcement of RoadCraft. This new title is the third addition to the Mudrunner and Snowrunner franchise. The new title already has a Steam page set up, but no solid release date outside of just 2025.


"As the leader of a company specialized in restoring sites devastated by natural disasters, use your construction machinery to restart the local industry. Clear debris and faulty equipment, rebuild roads and bridges damaged by weather, and much more!" - Saber Interactive

RoadCraft comes from the developers behind the aforementioned Mudrunner and Snowrunner, but this new title does not appear to share a lot of the same characteristics. RoadCraft is all about rebuilding and being the hero. The vehicles and heavy pieces of machinery the game will focus on will still deform the terrain permanently, so make sure you bring the right tools for the job.

Creating A Lifesaving Fleet​

Each machine and vehicle within RoadCraft has its own behaviour and physics. The bulldozer, for example, can be used to clear obstructions and heavy blockages in the road. The heavy transporter is used to deliver and remove vehicles from disaster zones. Players will have to ensure that their road is good enough to get this heavy beast in and then back out of the disaster zone again with its load on board.

If you are a fan of rearranging everything to just the way you like it, fixed gantry cranes can be used to lift containers and equipment around your disaster zone to make sure everything is where it needs to be. Reconnect a factory to the power grid with your cable layer, and do your best Lightning McQueen in Route 66 impression by laying down hot asphalt with your paver.

You can unlock over 40 different vehicles, trucks, cranes and lorries throughout the story-driven progress tree in RoadCraft. Customization is paramount; your garage is your palace to personalise and make your vehicles your own. This can be with your company's logo, paint scheme, stickers, and decals.

You have eight unique maps to explore throughout RoadCraf, each at 4 km², with their own biomes and buildings scattered around their environments. Choose an itinerary that, although not glamorous, includes abandoned factories, submerged dams, or out-of-service solar fields to aid in repair. Make sure to search and explore each corner and crevice this title has to offer, achieving your goals and securing new contracts is how to earn additional funds and XP for your company.

On your own or with friends, RoadCraft is advertised as a game that can be enjoyed however you want and with whoever you want. Divide the tasks or focus your team on a single objective within your playthrough. Combine your strengths and ingenuity to find solutions, even the most unexpected ones.

Don't mention mudrunner and snowrunner als compareable games, they are not! Mudrunner is a,pc simulation with indepth physics and grinding gameplay because you will get stuck. Snowrunner is a console arcade game focused on graphics instead of physics (which the game lacks completely).
It become even worse with Expeditions. And now they come up with Roadcraft? Oh boy...the title alone shouts "console garbage"
 
If I can use the machinery to make a clearing, lay out some tarmac. Make a race circuit complete with barriers and pit buildings etc and then have it be exportable to something like, mmm I dunno, AC maybe you can definitely count me in. 👍

This is an unexpected bit of living through dystopia - making games and enjoyment about the dilapidated collapse of infrastructure while capitalists exploit and bleed dry society. If only it taught skills that folks then put into actual real world practice....
 
Great article, thank you! I own Spintires, Mudrunner, Snowrunner, and Expeditions. This upcoming title has been immediately wishlisted. More dirt and off-road!
 
Good info here. I really enjoy "getting dirty" in Spintires, Mudrunner and Snowrunner. Also, I found multiplayer very very good for this games. How about RoadCraft? I think would be very nice to make a team of workers, because for example I'm not a big fan of excavators and bulldozers, but I will be happy to drive a truck full of debris out of disaster area, or to bring in some construction materials. For sure I will keep an eye on this.
