As it brings itself into a new era, Trailmakers keeping its nets cast wide for a broader audience. The latest 2.0 “Pioneers” update has launched not only Steam, Playstation 5, and Xbox Series X|S (including the Game Pass), but also by ensuring it can keep going on the “previous-generation” consoles, specifically Xbox One and Playstation 4. 

The new update essentially overhauls and adds onto many of the game’s core systems. The big new addition is a Campaign Mode, bringing a storyline about a planet where evil BOTNAK robots threaten Planet Gregory’s native inhabitants, the Froggits. This is on top of its flexible custom vehicle-building core gameplay, which lets players take to the roads, sea and sky. 

Plus, for those looking for a bit more of a challenge, there’s a Survival Mode, where players will “navigate harsh environments while fending off threats in an exciting, survival-like adventure.” 

Our MMORPG team took a look at the 2.0 version, and it turned out to be an exciting game for those who are looking for a unique open-world experience. Its focus on creative builds at any level allows players to be flexible even within the game’s more streamlined fetch quests. In short, it’s a great option for gamers and their families who enjoy titles like Minecraft or Tears of the Kingdom, and the last-gen compatibility makes it doubly so. 

The Pioneers update went live today for all its platforms: Steam, Playstation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series X|S, including free for Xbox Game Pass subscribers.
