Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive have released a new co-op gameplay trailer for RoadCraft, their upcoming heavy machinery simulation game. The trailer follows the positive reception of the game’s Steam Next Fest demo, which introduced players to the fundamentals of rebuilding a devastated world. This latest look shifts the focus toward multiplayer features, showing how players can work together in the game’s expansive sandbox environment.
RoadCraft is scheduled to launch on May 20 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Both the Standard and Rebuild Editions are currently available for pre-order on Steam, the PlayStation Store, and the Microsoft Store.
The co-op trailer showcases how the game’s core mechanics adapt to multiplayer. Up to four players can join a single map, taking on construction and logistics tasks as a team. Whether it’s operating cranes, bulldozers, or paving machines, players are encouraged to divide responsibilities and coordinate their efforts. The game includes shared progression, allowing everyone in a session to contribute to and benefit from the overall mission progress.
The co-op mode supports drop-in/drop-out multiplayer, built-in voice chat, and full cross-platform play across PC and consoles. These features aim to make it easier for friends to collaborate in real time without platform restrictions. The trailer emphasizes teamwork, showing scenarios where players work together to clear wreckage, stabilize structures, and navigate rough terrain.
Saber Interactive describes RoadCraft as both a simulation and a creative sandbox. While it includes realistic physics and machinery control, it also gives players the freedom to experiment with unconventional solutions. In multiplayer, this flexibility can lead to improvised problem-solving and spontaneous coordination. The ability to share a fleet of vehicles also means players can switch roles or assist each other when one gets stuck, which is likely to happen in the game’s rugged environments.
Following the Steam Next Fest demo, which received positive feedback for its detailed mechanics and immersive gameplay loop, the co-op feature appears to be a natural expansion. It adds social elements to a genre that traditionally leans toward solo play, offering a more collaborative approach to virtual reconstruction.
With just weeks to go until release, the new trailer positions RoadCraft as a next-generation take on simulation gaming. By combining detailed machinery operation with cooperative gameplay, it appeals to both fans of technical simulators and players looking for shared sandbox experiences. The addition of voice chat and seamless multiplayer integration could make it a standout title in its genre when it launches later in May.
