Press release:
Duesseldorf/Germany, March 10, 2026 – Ready for a breathtaking wilderness adventure? Then it’s high time to discover the untouched nature of Faremont National Park starting today: Ranger’s Path: National Park Simulator by astragon Entertainment and To-Go Games – part of GRIP Studios is now available in Early Access on Steam and the Epic Games Store. The game costs 19.99 Euro / 19.99 USD / 16.75 GBP with early adopters receiving a 10% discount in the first two weeks after launch.
Newly trained rangers can expect not only everyday tasks such as clearing paths, dealing with visitors and repairing damaged objects, but also radio calls summoning them to spontaneous operations, as well as significantly more complex main missions such as clearing severe storm damage to a bridge or searching for a missing VIP hiker.
While exploring the breathtaking landscape, inspired by real US national parks, players discover not only lakes, caves, and waterfalls, but also wildlife such as rabbits, raccoons, deer, eagles, wolves and even imposing bears. Photographing landmarks, animals, and various plants unlocks encyclopedia entries and adds new exhibits to the park museum – much to the delight of visitors.
During the Early Access phase, nature lovers can look forward to new content and improvements. Planned additions include a park rating system, a new vehicle, new animals and interaction options, as well as new call-out missions.
