Ticket to Ride launches new expansion across Switzerland
Connect Switzerland with neighboring countries with new international tickets.
- Switzerland and neighboring countries join the game
- Use international tickets to connect countries
- The expansion adds two new characters.
Ticket to Ride now has a route to Switzerland. Thanks to Switzerland’s new expansion, the digital strategy board game now features routes between countries as well as between cities. Now you can develop routes through Switzerland and its neighboring countries, building your railway empire.
The Switzerland expansion also introduces two new characters and four new tokens just in time for the holiday season. Developer Marmalade says it wanted to release the new expansion during the holiday season as a gift to Ticket to Ride fans. The expansion not only offers new locations, but also adds new mechanics. These new routes will require you to re-evaluate your strategy to create a thriving railroad empire. According to the developer, the expansion is designed for both new players and experts and encourages a dynamic playstyle.
Inter-country tickets require you to connect one country to another specified on the ticket. You will have several options for each of these tickets. For example, you may have the option to pair France with Germany, Italy, or Austria, each of which offers a different number of completion points.
Each country has a certain number of available hubs, so you’ll need to make a quick strategic plan to set up the most important routes. Tickets between cities were the same, except you connect a city to a country, as the name suggests.
Upon completion, you will receive points based on the completed connection of each ticket with the most points. If you fail to make any connections on your ticket, you will lose points equal to the lowest ticket price.
The Switzerland expansion is available now on Google Play, App Store and Steam and will be coming soon to PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and Xbox. To learn more about Ticket to Ride and keep up with all the latest news, follow MarmaladeGames on Facebook and Instagram.
