New shipping simulation game TransOcean2: Rivals offers new challenges for players seeking to take the helm as head of a virtual shipping company
Both the multiplayer mode as well as the single-player campaign of the economic strategy simulation game TransOcean2: Rivals promise players hours of entertaining gameplay. An update to TransOcean: The Shipping Company, the sequel’s developer Deck13 Hamburg and publisher astragon have added two more single-player modes which will present new challenges for ambitious “ship owners”.
In single-player competition mode, the game’s AI will adopt the part of the multiplayer mode’s human competitors. Every round will offer victory conditions that will keep combining into constantly new fields of activity and whose completion will be awarded with victory points. Besides a keen sense for timing and economic interrelationships, clever tricks such as acts of sabotage should be part of the player’s repertoire. The length of the game session and the number of enemy AI players (1 to 7) will be freely selectable. The competition mode will therefore be not only great fun for single players but will also be suited for those who would like to train different tactics for their next multiplayer challenge.
The single-player continuous play mode meanwhile will operate completely without any kind of constraints: here ship owners will be able to manage their business to their heart’s content and work on growing it into their very own ocean carrier empire without any time limits or quests.
TransOcean 2: Rivals is planned for release in spring 2016.
