Roco NEXT Generation is an entirely new concept that combines the most diverse elements: The real model train can be digitally controlled by means of an app that offers various games, such as precise targeted travel or logical quizzes to be solved by one or more players. And naturally with railways always in focus. These games are part of exciting narratives, and the players can immerse in these narrative worlds; giving free reign to the power of their imagination, they can even extend them with craft worksheets and instructions. With NEXT Generation, Roco offers a whole new gateway to the exciting world of model railways for the entire family: countless hours of interactive game fun and excitement – unique in this form. Once you have downloaded the app from the store, another 600 MB will need to be downloaded. Downloading this data volume may cause additional cost depending on the tariff of your mobile network operator.
