Announced at this year’s Geoffcom,RoadCraftis a new game courtesy of the vehicular bods behind MudRunner andSnowRunner. This means it’s very much a simulation game where you’re fighting terrain with tyres, except this time you aren’t just driving about, but managing a fleet of machines to carry out heavy construction work. Think a mixture of logistics, cars, cranes, and paving some lovely new roads from a once dilapidated junk heap.

And as it’s construction-based, you’ll harvest resources like sand, wood, or tar to make the terrain suitable for your iron fleet. “Supply factories and sand quarries to ensure a continuous production of resources needed for roads and bridges”, says the press release. You might notice in the trailer, too, but you’ll also need to plot routes on a map so your vehicles don’t get in each other’s way. This suggests there’s an element of automation in the resource gathering side of things, alongside having direct control of vehicles. Only time will tell if you can whizz into the driver’s seat ofanyvehicle, or whether that’s reserved for a more specific thing.
The game’s due out sometime in 2025 and you can find it onSteam.
