No pressure, no cancellations, it’s safe, and we’ll even guarantee it takes place.
We’ve got just that for you. So what are you waiting for? Grab your comfiest clothes; your relaxing Origin Journey is about to begin.
What is Origin Journey?
For those who might be experiencing Origin Journey for the first time, let give you an overview of some of the exclusive features and sights you’ll experience on your trip.
The entire scenario is themed around the location of Rail Nation’s creation, the German-speaking “DACH” region.
Taking place on the Classic map, you’ll be treated to beautiful views of 50 landmarks and 50 cities from around Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
You’ll also experience some of the local culture with 11 new goods (replacing some Classic goods) and new product chains. While you enjoy the culture, you’ll also have the opportunity to meet some of the locals with new workers, related to the new goods.
The upcoming version of Origin Journey has the additional perk of being x2 speed, which means you can experience and explore the fabulous sights of the DACH region more quickly, though it also means you need to work faster in a smaller timeframe. 1 week per era + endgame to be exact. To help you make the most out of your whirlwind tour of the Origin Journey game world, you’ll also have access to a very useful tool. The daily power bonus will grant you access to unique 24-hour bonuses to help boost your experience for a short time. Don’t like the bonus you got? Don’t stress, you can simply re-roll for a small amount of Gold. Beware though, the more you re-roll, the more Gold it will cost.
Origin Journey x2 will only be one round, so make sure you don’t miss your chance to grab a seat and start experiencing the journey.
