01

What the game is

Cold Transit is a peer-to-peer multiplayer and singleplayer tag game released September 30, 2026 at $5.99.

Catch your friends in the public transport network - or try to escape through the maze of streets and connecting lines.

Traverse systems using train, tram, bus, subway and bike, inspired by world-famous real transit networks.

02

Catcher vs Runner

As a Catcher, you find the running players by tracking them, with their positions revealed periodically.

As a Runner, you evade captors using stealthy options and your wit to slip through their grasp.

Every escape and every catch plays out across layers like famous landmarks and stations.

03

Maps, mods and who it is for

Each map has multiple layers and filters you can toggle, plus a fully functional map editor to create and share modded maps.

Play solo against AI, host a lobby and share an access code, or join a game; demo players can join full-version rooms with limits.

It suits players who like spatial hide-and-seek with a real-world transit twist rather than shooters (BOUNDED: official Steam description, checked 2026-10-01).
