Mini Motorways News

Since launching Mini Motorways on Steam in 2021, we’ve been so fortunate to have your support and enthusiasm. The last four years have been a blur, but we’ve never run out of ideas for how to make the game even bigger and better, so we’re stoked to share our 2025 roadmap with you all!

2025 promises to be a big year for Mini Motorways, and we’re kicking things off in the usual fashion with a map update early in the year. However, later on this year, we’re launching a highly-anticipated community feature that’s been cooking for some time. Our team is immensely proud of the work they’ve put in on this one and we think you’re going to love it, too.

Rounding out the year, we wouldn’t be Dinosaur Polo Club without a December update of some kind, and we’re already hard at work on our December map! We’re hoping it comes as a bit of a fun surprise - December is the season for that sort of thing, right?

Thank you again for your support, your time, for helping your fellow players learn the ropes - let’s make this another great year!

A small patch fixing an issue with the colour of the Great Barrier Reef on the Cairns map while using colourblind mode.

G’day, city planners! Travel with us to the land down under as we visit the stunning town of Cairns, Australia, in the latest update to Mini Motorways! Known as the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef, Cairns is a nature lover’s paradise fit for the best explorers. Cairns you handle it?!

This tropical haven is situated between lush rainforest and rainbow-hued reefs in Northern Queensland. Create an efficient road network to get Cairn’s citizens from Palm Cove to the Esplanade Lagoon in no time.

In addition to our first-ever Australian map, this update features:

• Cinematic Mode! This mode pans across the map and follows your commuters on their journey
  
• Improvement to Game zoom only working when the game window is in focus
  
• New Achievements, Daily Challenges, Weekly Challenges, and City Challenges.
  
• Various minor bug fixes and performance improvements.
  

We hope you enjoy this bloody good update, and don’t forget to share screenshots and GIFs of your creations!

We acknowledge and respect the Traditional Custodians of the region, including the Djabugay, Yirrganydji, Buluwai, Gimuy Walubara Yidinji, Mandingalbay Yidinji, Gunggandji, Dulabed and Malanbara Yidinji, Bundabarra and Wadjanbarra Yidinji, Wanyurr Majay, Mamu, and NgadjonJii peoples. The sovereignty of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples has never been ceded. We pay our respect to Aboriginal elders past and present as well as their continuing connection to these lands, waters, and communities.

This patch contains a fix to version 1.14 which was causing some elements to display incorrectly.

We are thrilled to introduce our first Canadian map to Mini Motorways! Vancouver is a long-requested city, and we know you’re going to love the unique geographical challenges it poses. This coastal city in British Columbia is home to narrow waterways and the famous rugged North Shore, with a bustling metropolis to the south and untamed wilds in every direction.

Vancouver is a city near and dear to our hearts, as some of us have studied, worked, and travelled there in the past, and it’s always fun to work on a map with a bit of dino history.

This update to Mini Motorways includes:

• A brand new map! Take a trip to the west coast of Canada and explore the highly-requested city of Vancouver, our latest Mini Motorways map.
  
• New Achievements, Daily Challenges, Weekly Challenges, and City Challenges.
  
• Various minor bug fixes and performance improvements.
  
• Updated in-game button with a new look and feel.
  
• There is a known issue in this build: when the 'Analytics Report' option is deselected, the analytics are not disabled until the game is next restarted. Though this has no impact on gameplay, we're still working on a patch to ensure analytics are disabled as soon as that option is chosen.
  

We’re already hard at work on our next update, and it’s going to be a big one! While we tinker away behind the scenes, we hope you enjoy the B.C. coast as much as we have!
