Japan DLC for Railway Empire

This downloadable expansion adds a Japanese campaign to the base strategy game on PC. It is built for players who already own Railway Empire and want new historical scenarios set during the Meiji era. The Steam code activates in select regions only. Buyers without the base game cannot use this content.

Two scenarios and expanded map content

The DLC covers the periods 1870 to 1890 and 1900 to 1920 across three new maps covering all, mid and south Japan. Eight historical engines including the D51 Degoichi, Class 9600 Kyuroku and Class 8620 Hachiroku are included. Twenty-eight new tradeable goods such as sake and rice join 35 additional cities. A new ticket feature for tourists and commuters works on all Railway Empire maps. Players seeking multiplayer modes or modern-era rolling stock will not find them here.

Digital delivery with Steam DRM

The product is a digital code redeemed on Steam, requiring an internet connection for activation and play. No physical media is shipped and no additional software installation beyond the Steam client is needed. The ESRB rating is E for Everyone. Users in blocked regions including RU, CN and others listed in the specifications cannot activate the code. Offline play depends on Steam client settings and the base game requirements.

Questions about this item

Will the 8 historical engines like the D51 Degoichi and Class 9600 Kyuroku run on my existing Railway Empire base game maps?

The 8 historical engines are included in the Japan DLC and are playable within the 3 new Japan maps and the 2 new scenarios. The added ticket feature works on all Railway Empire maps, but the Japan-specific engines are tied to the DLC content.

How can I verify the DLC activated correctly on Steam after entering the code?

After redeeming the Steam code, the DLC will appear in your Library under Railway Empire downloadable content. Launch the base game and check the scenario menu for the 2 new scenarios, Rising Sun and Twisted Paths, and the Free Game mode for the 3 Japan maps.

Does the download code include the base Railway Empire game or only the Japan expansion content?

Model 62679 is a DLC-only product; the base Railway Empire game must be owned separately on Steam to play the Japan scenarios, maps, 8 engines, 28 tradeable goods, 35 cities, 11 landmarks and the ticket feature.
