Mini Metro Patch Notes & News

Trains or Automobiles? Why not both? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

59d ago

Beep beep! If you’ve been conflicted about whether to design a system of subways or draw up roads that connect a growing metropolis, then worry no more! Both Mini Metro and Mini Motorways are respectively 60% and 30% off, so the only choice you have to make is how to lay out your city.

We’ve been hard at work at Dino HQ! Next week, a brand new map will be coming to Mini Motorways (looking at you, fellow Mini players, we know this one was a popular request 👀), and in Q3 2026, Singapore, the winner of our player-voted map competition will be joining us. We’ve also got a very exciting language update on the way - more on this soon!

Thank you to each and every single one of you for playing, voting, posting, enjoying our games. Whether you’re new here, or following along for a while, here’s to ‘Mini’ more years with you all. ♥️

Update to resolve Unity security vulnerability

Dinosaur Polo Clubsteam_community_announcementspatchnotes

299d ago

This update only upgrades the Unity version that Mini Metro is built on from 2022.3.60f1 to 2022.3.62f2. This ensures that Mini Metro cannot be used to exploit the recently discovered vulnerability detected in Unity. While no exploits have been picked up yet in the wild, it's strongly recommended that you update the game if you have Mini Metro installed.

Expand your minimalist strategy horizons - bundle with shapez now!

rubysteam_community_announcements

747d ago

We know that it can be tough to find games that scratch the Mini Metro itch, so we wanted to introduce you to our friend Tobias Springer and his game, shapez! For a limited time, we're partnering up for the ‘Subways and shapez' bundle, which will give you a discount on both our titles. In shapez, the name of the game is speed just as much as efficiency. You must build increasingly complex production lines that slice, rotate, and colour a variety of shapes as your factories expand, just like the maps in Mini Metro. While things start out at a relaxed pace, you'll soon find that as your factories scale, you'll have to build increasingly well designed assembly lines to keep up! Dive into this bundle to put your strategy skills to the test. If you already own Mini Metro, you can still purchase the bundle to get a discount of 10% on shapez. And if you don't own Mini Metro yet, now you can pick up both games at a 10% discount through 13 August. Happy planning!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6512997/3684960d440a5a089e232d7d65eeb441c2dd4871.png It’s been a big year for Mini Metro. Ten years is a long lifespan for an indie game, and we’ve enjoyed every year of it, bringing you over two dozen exciting maps from around the world, brand new game modes, Steam Workshop integration, and more! If you’ve enjoyed the many free updates we’ve rolled out over the last decade, we’d be honoured if you would consider nominating us for the Labour of Love award this year at the Steam Awards. Mini Metro has always been a “labour of love” for our studio in that we never had any plans to charge for DLC from the beginning. And our wonderful players have been part of that work, too, giving feedback in the early days of the game all the way through to designing so many incredible maps for Mini Metro Workshop! We’ve loved the opportunities that our updates have given our game, our team, and our players. If you’ve loved ‘em too, consider heading up to the top of our product page and clicking on the button to nominate us. :) Thanks for everything - from supporting us all the way back in Steam Green Light through to our big ten-year party! We’d be honoured to have your nomination.

Happy Birthday! Celebrate 10 Years of Mini Metro with our Miniversary Update!

DPC Caseysteam_community_announcements

1105d ago

Happy Birthday, commuters! We can’t believe it’s Mini Metro’s 10th Birthday! And to celebrate 10 years of Mini with our amazing community, we’ve released a massive Miniversary Update across both Mini Metro and Mini Motorways to fill your days with brand-new transport strategy fun! New to Mini Metro in this update, we’ve brought over three of our favourite maps from Mini Motorways and their colourful palettes to Mini Metro. Introducing: Tokyo, Lisbon and Warsaw!

From this map’s gorgeous pastel hues to its iconic island geography, take Tokyo’s iconic Metro lines in your own direction with this new map!
Cross the River Vistula and take a turn delivering the Polish capital’s 1.7 million passengers to their destinations in the historic city of Warsaw.
Take a trip to the European coast of Portugal’s capital city, Lisbon. Bordering the brilliant blue waters of the Tagus, how will you reimagine the Metropolitano de Lisboa in this tricky five-line map?

The Miniversary Update also introduces a brand-new photo mode where you can export screenshots of your own metro networks with decorative frames to show off your metro masterpieces. This is also joined by a new GIF capture feature coming to Mini Metro. Export colourful animations of your unique metro networks at any stage in the game to share with friends or just for bragging rights. This update also features various improvements and bug fixes. But that’s not all! If you’re a fan of both games, or have been waiting for an opportunity to take Mini Motorways for a spin, the Miniversary Update might just be the perfect time to join the ride. With three new crossover maps coming to Mini Motorways, direct from Mini Metro, you can reimagine the experience of creating the Metro lines of London, Mumbai and our player-voted map winner New York City. And to make things even more fun, these new maps will also require you to build around an existing railroad network with train stations! It has been an honour and a joy to celebrate the last 10 years of Mini with such an amazing community of players. No matter where you jumped on board, we hope you’ve enjoyed this decade long-journey with us! Who knows where our next destination might take us, but with you there, it’s made the trip well worth it!

Mini Metro is the game that started it all here at Dinosaur Polo Club, and we’re thrilled to celebrate its tenth birthday in style with the Miniversary Update coming July 24th PT! We’re bringing over three maps from Mini Motorways’ catalogue, including another chance to take a ride on the Shinkansen in Tokyo! In addition to this much-requested map, you can build your way around the braided rivers of Warsaw and the Portuguese coast in Lisbon. The original Mini Metro team, complete with artist Jamie Churchman and Disasterpeace on sound, have lent their touch to these three gorgeous maps in their Mini Motorways colours, showcasing just how far we’ve travelled since Ludum Dare in 2013 while also never straying from our minimalist roots. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Except the metros in these cities really do need you to fix them. So come celebrate with us! See you on 24th July PT for the biggest Mini birthday our studio has ever had!

Happy Lunar New Year, commuters! To celebrate, Mini Metro will now be stopping in the historical city of Nanjing, China! Home to one of the country’s largest metro systems, with nearly 160 stations, Nanjing is nestled between mountains, rivers, and lakes – a beautiful and challenging new addition to the Mini Metro map library.

Mini Metro now stopping in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia!

DPC Cleliasteam_community_announcements

1704d ago

It’s hard to believe that Mini Metro has been around for so long that we’re adding maps for metro systems that opened after our game debuted! For our December update, we invite players to explore Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia. The Addis Ababa Light Rail opened in 2015, servicing ten sub-city boroughs. Take control of the first light rail and rapid transit network in sub-Saharan Africa! Addis Ababa is nestled in the shade of Mount Entoto, with tricky terrain for players as they must design a metro that serves the city’s five million residents while weaving around and over the Akaki and Bulbula rivers, as well as their tributaries! This update features:

A brand new map! Connect the five million commuters of Addis Ababa who call Ethiopia’s capital home.
New achievements and challenges!
Fixes to outstanding issues, including:
- Fixed a looping audio bug that was affecting some players.
- Added a warning every time you replay the Daily Challenge that only the first score is counted.
- Fixed some bugs where buttons and UI elements occasionally behaved unusually.

Thanks so much for continuing to enjoy Mini Metro after so many years. It's pretty wild that we're now releasing maps for cities whose rail networks were released after Mini Metro was! :D We're grateful to all of you for your support and we can't wait to see you again in 2022!

Hi, commuters! We're thrilled to share a new map with you all. Enjoy recreating or improving upon Budapest's 126-year-old metro system. This update features...

A brand new map featuring continental Europe’s oldest metro system: Budapest! You can now recreate the iconic metro system of Hungary’s capital, alongside our twenty-five other international maps.
Several improvements to audio quality, including the ability to turn the volume completely off so you can tune into your favourite podcast or playlist while building the metro system of your dreams.
Updated night-mode colours for several of our existing maps such as Auckland, Chicago, Osaka and more.
Improved visuals for our maps with smooth rivers and coastlines including New York City, Saint Petersburg, San Francisco, Cairo and Mumbai!

Thanks so much to everyone who has been enjoying Mini Metro after finding us through Mini Motorways. :) We are excited to see our first game still getting so much love from the community. We're under a pretty strict lockdown in New Zealand right now - seeing people in so many places enjoying Mini Metro helps us feel like we're still part of the world!

We try not to toot our own horns too much here at Dino HQ, but in case you missed it, Mini Motorways is out now! More of a spiritual successor to Mini Metro than a direct sequel, it asks a question which puts a brand new spin on familiar game mechanics: what if you had to design roads for a city with no public transit? Keen on taking Mini Motorways for a spin? Pick it up here. And to celebrate our sophomore game's Steam release, we're giving Steam players 75% off Mini Metro! If you've always wanted to check it out or wanted to share a copy with a friend, now's your chance. :) Last but not least, we'll be updating Mini Metro with a shiny new map in late August! This city's first metro line is listed with UNESCO World Heritage and is over 130 years old! Any guesses? Thanks so much for still loving Mini Metro all this time and for the warm welcome to Mini Motorways. We'll see you in August!

Hi, commuters! Thank you so much for all the time and effort you have put into Mini Metro Workshop since it launched. We can’t believe you’ve made over 60 maps! We’re thrilled to announce that your community maps will now have leaderboards so that you can compete against your friends.

Community maps on Steam now have leaderboards.
Steam links will now open in the Steam app rather than your web browser.
The dynamic duo of Kucnjnj and Disasterpeace have updated the Workshop guide, clarifying some things and a section about how leaderboards work as well as how to implement custom audio for your maps, if you dare!
Added a button in the community maps screen which will open your mod folder directly.
Quality-of-life UI changes for community maps.
Quality-of-life tweaks to station-obstacle interaction in community maps.
And as usual, some bug fixes.

2056d ago

As a little end-of-year surprise, we've added a brand-new map to Mini Metro! You can now make your mark on the Windy City: Chicago, on the shores of Lake Michigan in the United States. Chicago is famous for the "L", the elevated rapid transit system that originally opened in 1892. Chicago has consistently been one of our most-requested maps, so we're delighted to be able to add it to our roster of cities - bringing the total to 25!

Now with Steam Workshop support!

DPC Caseysteam_community_announcementsworkshop

2078d ago

Six years after its release, Mini Metro is heading in an exciting new direction with support for custom maps! Mini Metro: Workshop gives players the ability to design and create their very own maps, then share them with each other. The Mini Metro: Workshop update comes complete with all the documentation you need to get started installing maps, as well as a library of already existing player-created Mini Metro cities. You’ll even find detailed, in-depth instructions so you can learn to create your very own. Mini Metro has always had some of the most creative, forward-thinking players who have enjoyed pushing the game as far as they can since day one. We can’t wait to see what you all come up with! Check out our player map library and review the how-to documentation to get started.

Hey everyone! We're dropping Mini Metro by 50% on Steam as part of the Indie MEGABOOTH Going Away sale, to help raise money for an organization that gave us a lot of encouragement back when our studio was very new and had no idea how to bring Mini Metro to the wider gaming world. Kelly from IMB helped us organize our first PAX appearance, gave so much encouragement and advice, and has been an incredible presence in the indie gaming community for nine years now. Over 150 IMB alumni are discounting our games this week to help raise money to keep IMB's bills paid while they have to temporarily close their doors due to the current state of the events industry. We were looking forward to exhibiting Mini Motorways at IMB this year at PAX West, and we're so gutted for all our friends, fans, and fellow devs who aren't going to get to experience what a fun event this was for the indie games community. Some of you on this very page may have even encountered Mini Metro back at PAX in 2015, when the IMB team helped us sort out our very first big, pre-planned convention exhibition back when we weren't sure our silly little game was ready for the big time alongside all those "real" studios. Kelly and Mike believed in us from day 1 and their encouragement is part of how we've gotten to where we are today as a studio. If you love Mini Metro or just want to support an incredible gaming community that encourages developers who otherwise might not have access to information, promotion, and community building, you now have the opportunity to buy some awesome games for an amazing cause. Check out the full lineup of all the great games on offer here!

Mini Motorways!

Robertsteam_community_announcements

2512d ago

We’re thrilled to announce our new title: Mini Motorways! The team has been hard at work on this game since early 2018 and we’re so happy that we can share the news with you all after so many months. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6512997/f73958d5c6e23fbab21be279e7193aafe399c711.png The success of our debut title, Mini Metro, took us all by surprise. As you know, we have spent time since its inception supporting it by adding more content, bringing it to new platforms, and improving the core systems (a fancy way of saying “fixing bugs”). It’s also been a hard title to follow up. We have spent a lot of time deciding what to base our next game on, and we decided on something else that a lot of people use every day – road maps. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6512997/b782a10ef7b469b5c569f5dc6e5dc2c6d47a9058.jpg We did a lot of work on Mini Metro in 2018, such as adding Creative Mode, the interactive game guide, and new maps. In between these updates we set aside time for members of the team to prototype ideas for how an interactive road map would work. In some concepts the roads drew themselves automatically and you carved arterial routes through them, in others you painted roads across the city and they “sprouted” small streets. We experimented with systems such as modelling the waves of commuters throughout the day, intelligent spline editing, and threading together interchanges. In the end we kept coming back to one of the concepts, Tiny Tileways, that our programmers Tana and Tom had put together. It was a neat and minimal design, fun to watch and interact with, and had a lot of potential for expansion. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/6512997/283a11ef85a078de9b1ad5e166828aebe043742a.jpg We want Mini Motorways to be as good as it can be by the time we launch on Steam, and instead of rushing the integration, we’re taking the time to do it right and deliver a great game first time to you all. This time around, there will be no Early Access period as it should be pretty rounded out by then. You can check out our Coming Soon page and if you like the look of it, please add Mini Motorways to your Wishlist!

Add, delete, and reshape stations, as well as control how busy they get. No more circle stations everywhere!
Unlimited locomotives, carriages, and interchanges.
All lines start unlocked.
An increased per-line locomotive limit.

It's all up to you. Build your home town's network in meticulous detail, make a massive city with an equally large fleet of trains, or construct geometric patterns and record looping gifs. We'd love to see what you come up with!

Added an interactive guide that explains the rules of the game and the basics of how to build your metro.
The alternate maps now unlock automatically if you've already reached the required score.
The per-line locomotive limit has been increased on maps with fewer than seven lines.
