OpenTTD's New Home: Transport Tycoon Deluxe Bundle

OpenTTD has been available as a standalone game on Steam since 2021. Over these five years, it has attracted thousands of new players and maintained its status as one of the most beloved simulation games ever created by Chris Sawyer. However, starting today, OpenTTD will no longer be directly accessible in this form.

Instead, you can now find both OpenTTD and the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe (TTD), courtesy of Atari’s re-release efforts, bundled together on Steam. This new arrangement allows players to experience TTD alongside its spiritual successor while ensuring that OpenTTD remains free for all.

The Bundle Deal: A Win-Win Situation

For a mere $9.99, you can purchase the bundle and enjoy both games simultaneously on Windows, Mac, or Linux. This deal not only preserves the accessibility of TTD but also provides an opportunity to support the original creators by purchasing their classic title.

If you already own OpenTTD through Steam, there’s no need for concern—your game will remain in your library and continue receiving updates as usual. However, if you’re a new player or simply want to explore both games together, this bundle is an excellent choice.

OpenTTD's Future Remains Unchanged

The development team behind OpenTTD remains intact, with the same workflow and commitment to open-source principles as before. The game will continue to be updated across all platforms, including Steam and GOG.com. This means that players can look forward to new features, bug fixes, and improvements without any disruption.

For those who have never had a chance to purchase TTD but are now interested in exploring both games together, this bundle offers an affordable entry point into the world of classic transport simulation gaming. It’s not just about preserving legacy; it’s also about fostering new communities around these beloved titles.
