RoadCraft FAQ

What is RoadCraft? Is it a SnowRunner extension? ❄️

​It's a whole new experience, based on a new iteration of our in-house engine. Not only does it enable the manipulation of new vehicles, such as construction heavy machinery, but also new interactions with your environment. The game is not intended to be a sequel to SnowRunner or Expeditions. It's a new adventure for us.

What is the purpose of the game? 🚧

​The focus of the game is to repair the infrastructures of areas devastated by natural disasters. RoadCraft pushes you to alter your environment, to reach your goals.

When will RoadCraft be released?📅

The game releases on May 20th.

​​Is there an early access or a beta to test the game in advance?

A demo of the game was playable during February’s Steam Next Fest. No other early access/beta is planned for now.

Will RoadCraft in-game physics be the same as in SnowRunner?  ⚖️ 

​We're using a combination of Havok and our Swarm Engine to handle in-game physics, but to answer how similar it is to SnowRunner, the physics have a noticeable difference compared to SnowRunner, which will be reflected in this new, unique gameplay experience.
