Retro Rail GO! Renamed Retro Rail: Japan! After Plagiarism Accusations
Developer Barely Making Games has confirmed it will continue development of its railway simulation game, now titled Retro Rail: Japan!, after accusations that it was too similar to Taito's Densha de GO! series. The title change and UI updates aim to distance the project from the controversy while keeping core gameplay intact. Early access on Steam is planned for 2026.
