- The Free Starter Pack will give you access to the Training Center and the core feature set of Train Sim World 5 features (more on this tomorrow) that aren't tied to route-based content. This pack won't provide you with any routes on its own, so if you're interested in the new Train Sim World 5 content, you'll find more value in our premium bundles that include the routes and locos we've covered, and you can find breakdowns within our TSW5 Bundle FAQs.
- However, if you already play Train Sim World on the same platform and account, you will be able to bring any compatible add-ons you already own into Train Sim World 5 and play them with the newest features.
- On top of being a fantastic way for new players to begin their TSW journey, this is also a good benefit to existing players. The Free Starter Pack allows you to:
- Access new add-ons released after the launch of Train Sim World 5, even if you have yet to purchase a core bundle.
- Update any previously owned compatible routes to their current remastered variants (West Somerset Railway, Cathcart Circle Line or the upcoming Great Wester Express remaster).
- Explore any TSW patches you have missed on your favourite routes if you weren't on the most up-to-date version of Train Sim World.
The Free Starter Pack includes the Training Center, Livery Designer, Free Roam, Formation Designer and Scenario Planner.
