Battle Train, a chaotic mix of deckbuilding roguelite and train-blasting action, has officially launched on Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. Developed by Terrible Posture Games and Nerd Ninjas, and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment America, this indie firecracker puts players on the rails of destruction in a competition for train supremacy.

Welcome to the Most Explosive Game Show in the World

In Battle Train, players are thrown into the high-stakes chaos of a televised game show, where only the best survive. As contestants, players must build strategic decks, lay track across a gridded battlefield, and send explosive trains into their opponent’s bases.

The game combines tactical deckbuilding with real-time decision-making as players race to link their tracks to enemy strongholds. Once connected, it’s all aboard the destruction express — loaded with payloads designed to blow rival champions out of the game.

Each victory adds new cards to your arsenal, unlocks train upgrades, and builds your path toward becoming the one and only Supreme President Conductor.

Core Gameplay Features

• Strategic Card-Based Combat: Every card is a piece of track or a powerful tool. Balance resources, layout, and offense to win.
• Explosive Trains: Attach explosive cargo and watch your creation smash enemy defenses.
• Branching Campaign: Take different routes through the game show’s episodes with unique battles and events each time.
• Customizable Locomotives: Upgrade and personalize your train as you progress.
• Memorable Champions: Battle a colorful cast of AI rivals with their own personalities and tactics.
