The Oregon Trail (2021)

In 2021 update to The Oregon Trail, players embark on exhilarating journeys to Oregon, facing historically accurate challenges with a modern twist. As they pick their traveling party and stock up on supplies, they'll encounter tough choices, new dangers, and unexpected situations. From surviving blizzards to transporting volatile gunpowder, each decision impacts the party's fate and future events. Please note that the stories of Indigenous individuals have been improved, meaning they are not 'bad guys' in this telling of the game but recognized as full peoples with their own storylines and possible side quests.
