Cheminots

The release date for Cheminots is July 21, 2026, on PC. This cooperative train simulator tasks up to five players with the high-pressure maintenance of a steam locomotive while simultaneously managing the whims of the people on board.

Success depends on a split-second division of labor: while some players shovel coal and monitor water levels to prevent the train from stalling, others must patrol the cars to verify tickets and address the needs of increasingly strange passengers. The inclusion of specialized wagons and interactable items like paint buckets or cameras suggests a chaotic social dynamic where one player's mistake can easily derail the entire schedule. It is a technical management game where the real challenge is communicating through the frantic cycle of fueling and passenger service.

Gather a reliable crew for this frantic logistical challenge.
