Embark on a virtual journey through Japan with the latest expansion for Ticket to Ride, brought to you by Marmalade Game Studio and Asmodee Entertainment. The Japan Expansion introduces the iconic Japan map from the physical game to digital platforms, offering a unique twist to the classic board game experience.

Help Build the Train Network

For the first time, you can contribute to a national Bullet Train network in the digital version of Ticket to Ride. Unlike the traditional game where you focus solely on your own train empire, this expansion encourages cooperative play. You can assist in building the network, but be wary—there's a strategic element at play. If you shirk your Bullet Train responsibilities, you'll lose 20 points at the end of the game. This karma system adds a layer of strategy, where helping others can benefit your own score, even if you're plotting to outmaneuver your friends later on.

The Japan Expansion also introduces two new characters: Nakanishi Kimiko, a travel blogger who loves the festival scene and her dog, and Moriyama Isamu, a gyōji or sumo referee. These characters enrich the game with Japan's cultural flair, going beyond just maps and trains.

Ticket to Ride Has Upgraded Trains with the Japan Expansion

Enhance your train collection with the Japan Expansion's new additions. You'll get the Ichi Eki Saki train and the Tsuki Sleeper carriage, perfect for leisurely journeys, as well as the Isogaba Maware train and the Hayai carriage, designed for swift and efficient travel. With spring in full bloom, the Japan map's seasonal vibes are sure to enhance your gaming experience.

The Japan Expansion for Ticket to Ride is available now for download, adding a fresh twist to your gameplay. You can find it on the Google Play Store and start exploring the vibrant landscapes of Japan today.
