Train Sim World 3 was released by Dovetail Games for Windows 11 on September 6th, 2022, with backward compatibility to Windows 8.1. There are also reportedly console versions available, for Playstation and for Xbox, although I didn’t test these. Neither is available on the respective online stores anymore.

Train Sim World 3 represents an incremental improvement from Train Sim World 2, and comes with three new routes (at least for the default game), these being the Cajon Pass route on BNSF, the Schnellfahrstrecke Kassel-Wurzburg on Deutsche Bahn, and the Southeast High Speed route from London St. Pancras to Ashford International, also known as the Channel Tunnel Rail Link, or more recently, HS1. I chose to drive the Channel Tunnel Rail Link between St. Pancras and Ebbsfleet for this playthrough.

I already have Train Sim World 4 and 5, but I figured I should do this video anyway to show the historical progression of the game. I’ve now played every version since Train Sim World 2020, and I like all of them, so if you’re buying just one, I would recommend comparing your computer to the system requirements for each one. What is especially nice about this game series is that newer versions are compatible with older DLC’s, so you don’t sacrifice much other than system resources by choosing a newer version.

For more, just watch the video.
