Ho, ho, ho, Santa is in town. And he's brought a gift with him.

The first beta version of the coming OpenTTD 15 release comes faster, with road waypoints, fewer passwords, better scenario editor, and hopefully with a lot less bugs.

There's a lot of bugs left for you to find, though, guaranteed. Enjoy the beta, test all the things and report anything you find amiss, to make OpenTTD 15 the best OpenTTD ever.

Welcome to 14.0!

OpenTTD's first release was in March of 2004.
Now twenty years later, we are proud to present to you: release 14.0.

And boy, what a release it is.
Do I dare to say: this has been the biggest release yet?

In preparation for the next release, our font designer is busy adding more support for non-Latin character sets.

Here's a preview of the in-progress Hebrew characters. The right-to-left support, and translations, already exist but until now the game always had to switch to a system installed font.

Issue? None of the development team is able to read Hebrew, so here we ask: Is this legible and easy to read, or do we need to make changes?

Please let us know!

Can you believe it? It's been 20 years since OpenTTD 0.1 was released! Time really does fly.
