Bern railway station serves the municipality of Bern, the federal city of Switzerland. Opened progressively between 1858 and 1860, rebuilt several times since it lies on the Olten–Bern and the Lausanne–Bern lines and is near the end of the Lötschberg line; the station is owned by the Swiss Federal Railways. Train services to and from the station are operated by the Swiss Federal Railways, the Bern-Lötschberg-Simplon railway and the metre gauge Regionalverkehr Bern-Solothurn. Trains calling at the station include TGVs, ICEs, international trains to Italy. Bern is the nearest station to the University of Bern in the Länggasse quarter. There is a rooftop terrace on top of the station, accessed by lift from the subway by Platforms 12 and 13, with views over the city and to the Bernese Alps. Access to Bern Airport from the station is via rail to Belp station and by connecting bus, but the first and last buses each day run directly between Bern station and the airport, it has an IATA Airport Code, as American Airlines codeshares on the Swiss Federal Railways service from Zurich Airport in Zürich.

Between 1999 and 2003, the station was renovated and redesigned. Presently, the site contains Rail City, a shopping center open for longer opening hours than most other shops in the city, on Sundays and public holidays, when most other shops would be close; the station has four meter gauge RBS platforms. Curiously, there is no platform 11, but there is a through railway track with no platform face between platforms 10 and 12; the station interchanges with many local bus and trolley bus routes and regional bus services. Amid projections of increasing passenger numbers, plans for a major expansion and development of Bern Station focusing upon new underground areas, were mooted during the 2010s. Swiss Federal Railways, Regional Bern-Solothurn, the city of Bern are the key backers behind this development. On 26 June 2017, authorisation to proceed with the planned station expansion was issued and construction activity commenced during the following month; the renovated station is expected to be completed by the end of 2025.

During 1848, in conjunction with various other changes institutes as Switzerland transitioned to a new federal government system, it was declared by the Federal Council that the city of Bern had been selected as the nation's new capital. As a consequence of this decision, Bern experienced a construction boom promptly thereafter. Amongst the projects commenced was a sizable railway station, built to accommodate the large volume of local and international traffic, anticipated. Throughout its life, Bern railway station has been the second biggest station in Switzerland. Over the course of time, Bern station has been progressively expanded and new services added, it forms the central hub for the city's S-Bahn network, as well as being a major interchange providing connections throughout the metropolitan area, covering an area containing in excess of one million people. Projections have been produced which anticipate that, by 2030, passenger numbers using the station are set to rise to between 260,000 and 375,000 people per day.

During the early part of the twenty-first century, a team of Swiss Federal Railways, Regional Bern-Solothurn, the city of Bern formed for the purpose of further developing Bern Station to better satisfy the needs of the expanding fare-paying members of the public. In accordance with this aim, in the 2010s, a concept emerged for the station's expansion, which encompasses the construction of a new underground station, along with supporting underground and outdoor works, to accommodate the increased demand. A new pedestrian underpass was proposed, claimed would result in a reduction in the time taken to transfer between the station's platforms; this underpass shall feature two new station entrances at Bubenberg Centre and Länggasse half of all passengers are expected to use these new entrances. The new lower station area is planned to accommodate a total of four tracks, which are to be run underneath six individual tracks of the existing station, it shall principally comprise a pair of large underground halls, each being furnished with a single 12 meter-wide central platform and two tracks.

Pedestrian access to and from the platforms is to be achieved via both escalators and elevators, allowing for a quick transition to the older platforms where the main line long-distance and S-Bahn services shall continue to stop at, or to exist the station into the city itself. Various adaptions and changes to both the existing station and its surrounding area are planned. Larger underground car parking areas are to be constructed at Eilgut, as well as underground spaces for the installation of miscellaneous railway systems and emergency access routes; the station's decorative Perron ceiling is to undergo restoration, while various track works and the installation of new signal boxes shall take place. A considerable emphasis has been placed upon the facility's aesthetics.

Chromatic Games Trendy Entertainment Inc. is an American video game development studio, founded in 2009, by Augi Lye and Jeremy Stieglitz. It is located in Florida. Trendy Entertainment is a developer of Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Windows, iOS, Android platform games. Trendy Entertainment developed the indie title Dungeon Defence in 4 weeks using the Unreal Engine, released on February 4, 2010; the game formed the basis for Dungeon Defenders, released on October 19, 2011. Dungeon Defenders was financially successful, having sold more than 600,000 copies within two years of its release; this drew a large US$18.2 million investment into Trendy by Insight Venture Partners, gaining majority control of the company. Stieglitz stated in a interview that Insight was not as much interested in the video game development side, has affected their approach to developing games. A June 2013 investigation by Kotaku magazine found the company to be a poor employer, citing a sexist work environment that demanded excessive work hours.

The company removed Stieglitz from their upcoming Dungeon Defenders 2 game shortly after publication of the report, instead created an imprint division, NomNom Games, placing Stieglitz as its president by September 2013, starting the development of Monster Madness Online, a massively multiplayer online game in the spirit of Dungeon Defenders. Stieglitz remained at Trendy until around April 2014, where he wrote to Insight and Trendy's management that he could not trust some of the people working under him as a result of fallout from the report, asked that either these people be removed, or find a way to have him leave the company. Trendy and Stieglitz came to an agreement to have him work for a few additional months, through August 2014, while agreeing to cut his non-compete agreement from three to one years. Following his departure, Stieglitz co-formed Studio Wildcard in September 2014, bringing in a number of Trendy developers who went on to develop Ark: Survival Evolved. Ostensibly, Studio Wildcard had stated that Stieglitz was only consulting on their studio during this period.

However and Insight argued that Stieglitz was breaking his non-compete after discovering his role in co-founding Wildcard, further, had been trying to lure talent from Trendy, had used some of the proprietary information from Trendy's work into Ark. Trendy and Insight sought US$600 million from Stieglitz in the suit, but by April 2016, Stieglitz opted to settle out of court, agreeing to pay Trendy US$40 million rather than fight the lawsuit, given Insight's financial backing; the company rebranded itself as Chromatic Games in March 2019. This change followed by a buyout of the studio from its investors by the original co-founder Augi Lye, as well a transition of staff, with some veteran developers departing while new hires were brought in, bringing the total company size to 30. Under the new structure, Lye became CEO, Joshua Javaheri, Trendy’s employee zero, became the Studio Director. Colin Fisher, a developer for Dungeon Defenders II, became the studio's creative lead before departing in July 2019.

Further the name change was divest itself from the situation around Stieglitz in 2013, as well as to show the company's refocus on ongoing development for Dungeon Defenders II and working towards a new title Dungeon Defenders: Awakened. Official website
