The Miniversary Update

Happy Birthday to us! We’ve been lucky enough to bring you ten years of new maps, game modes, and more since Mini Metro was first released in 2013. To celebrate our Miniversary, here’s one of our biggest updates yet! This update includes:

• Three brand-new maps! We’ve brought three of our most popular cities from Mini Motorways and their gorgeous colour palettes to Mini Metro. Another Shinkansen map is yours to enjoy in Tokyo. Or you can carefully traverse the rivers of Warsaw. If you want more than just rivers, the Portuguese coast is yours to explore in Lisbon, a tricky five-line map.
• An all-new photo mode! Export screenshots of your metro networks with decorative frames to show off your unique cities.
• A much-loved feature from Mini Motorways comes to Mini Metro in the form of a new way to capture GIFs. Export colourful animations of your metro networks at any stage in their growth to share with friends or just for bragging rights.
• An update to the text featured in the Miniversary button.
• This update also features various improvements and bug fixes.

If you haven’t played it in a bit, we’ve also brought three Mini Metro maps into Mini Motorways! We’ve dusted them with a bit of Mini Metro magic, too, as each map requires you to build around an existing railroad network with spawning train stations.

Thank you so much for being part of our last ten years and for helping us bring Mini Metro to so many people. We hope to see you around for the next ten years of Mini adventures!

Welcome to the Year of the Ox!
To celebrate the new lunar year we're taking a trip to central China, and welcoming the mountainous megacity of Chongqing to our lineup of cities.
Home to over thirty million people, Chongqing is a major cultural, economic, scientific, and manufacturing centre in China. Its position on the meeting of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers will give you a few challenges to overcome when planning your metro.

As a little end-of-year surprise, we've added a brand-new map to Mini Metro!
You can now make your mark on the Windy City: Chicago, on the shores of Lake Michigan in the United States. Chicago is famous for the "L", the elevated rapid transit system that originally opened in 1892.
Chicago has consistently been one of our most-requested maps, so we're delighted to be able to add it to our roster of cities - bringing the total to 25!

Then hop over the Atlantic to Chile to help get the commuters of Santiago to their destinations. Nestled among the snow-capped Andes, this South American metropolis needs your expert planning hand.
