Transport Fever 3 developer interview: 13 years of transport games

Chuapp interviewed Urban Games senior 3D artist Manu Oehler at Tokyo Game Show 2026 about Transport Fever 3. Oehler said the game leans further into tycoon management, with cargo now routed by the player and storable in warehouses, and that map terrain shapes how each map plays; he said playability wins over realism when the two conflict, and that Paradox handles publishing, marketing, translation and testing. The game launches September 29 on PC, Mac, Linux, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with development spending of about 24 million.
