It's here! At long last, the 2130 expansion and the 2.0 megapatch are finally out of the oven, nice and fluffy, ready to be consumed! https://youtu.be/lidjkbFMDek Let's get the marketing blurbs out of the way:

Rise of Industry: 2130

The world has changed. Ruins of the past lay in the shadows and your once thriving business must now rise again. This is 2130. Kasedo Games and Dapper Penguin Studios are thrilled to announce that expansion Rise of Industry: 2130 is now available for Windows PC, Mac & Linux for $9.99/9.99/6.99. Set 200 years on from the base game, 2130 is set in a bleak dystopian future caused by mankinds endless capitalism and the environmental corruption of decades gone by. From the towns and cities that have risen again, you must adapt to your new settings and become a business tycoon in a new and unknown world. Manage pollution in your new world, harnessing it to create new resources, but limiting its effect to create thriving farms. Scavenge materials from ruins of former cities, and move them to market with new cargo boats, maglev trains, and even dropships. https://youtu.be/JhQNICi6ufg

Base Game Free Update

Base game players will also gain from the release of the expansion. The free 2.0 update, which is available now, brings new features to enhance the Rise of Industry experience. With the new Layouts function, players will be able to build their ideal production setups and share them with the community or replicate them as many times as they like. The introduction of seasons, a new objective-based 'helper' system - 'The Assistant' and a host of fixes and improvements completes the update. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zEuEKGRRW0

So... what now?

Ok, with the corporate spiel out of the way, let's get down with the other changes:

The once-called OST DLC was now expanded into the "Supporter Pack". It now has more songs, a super awesome Art Book, and the Recipe Book.
2130 can be purchased on its own HERE, but if you want to be my very best friend, you can buy the Plus version, that includes more songs, the 2130 Art Book, and the 2130 Recipe Book. We spent a lot of time making the art books, and I personally love them (I printed it out and have it next to me, in all its high-def glory!).
Again, the 2.0 update is completely free. No need to buy anything. Just let it patch!
As for 2130, we could've just done a couple of buildings or a new industry line. We went overboard and basically redid the whole game. I think it's well worth the price (less than two McMenus!).

As always, stay awesome, and really, from the bottom of my overworked heart, thank you for being here. This is an amazing trip I wouldn't be able to do without you all. Thank you, Alex PS: if you want to read to the extremely long (14 pages) changelog for both 2130 and 2.0, you can do so HERE.

Rise of Industry: 2130

Rise of Industry is a strategic tycoon game that puts you in the shoes of an early 20th-century industrialist. Build and manage your growing empire in a living, breathing, and procedurally generated world that is constantly evolving and adapting to your playstyle.

As a budding entrepreneur, you will build factories, construct efficient transport lines, move raw materials, produce finished goods, and arrange trade with the world's developing cities, providing them with the resources they need to flourish - for as they grow and prosper, so do you.

Designed with an eye towards both accessibility and depth, Rise of Industry has enough strategic complexity and replayability to satisfy the most experienced fans of the genre, while its simple-to-understand mechanics ensure that new players will love it as well.

Features

Experience tailored for every player - Specialise in just trading, production, gathering or any combination and research your way to bigger and better things.
Use PR & Marketing to gain favour (or repair damage) with your business partners.
Choose from over 100 individual products and manage the manufacturing process from harvesting raw materials all the way to delivering the end product to local stores & townspeople
Build and manage a solid transportation network to enable the efficient transfer of goods via plentiful trucks, speedy trains and high capacity airships.
Be prepared for fierce competition – Advanced town and city A.I., make for an intelligent and changing game world so you won’t be the only one looking for the best deal.
Town personalities – adapt a suitable approach for every town or face their economic backlash.
Huge, procedurally generated maps mean that you’ll always have room to expand your empire into whether in testing scenarios or sandbox mode where imagination is your only limit.
Be quick to adapt to the current business climate with contracts, random events and quests keeping you on your toes and cash flowing in.
Balance environmental impact with productivity, trying to meet your neighbouring town's demands.
Ever-changing biomes will present different environmental challenges as you aim to make the most out of the map - Lose potential oil reserves as polluted tundra melts into fields or fertile grassland wilts and dies into arid desert.
Ready for global domination? Bend and break your friends into economic submission in multiplayer-mode*
