Looking forward to trucking in the reworked Benelux in ETS2? Although it is a little early for that, as this project is still a work in progress, we are happy to show you a glimpse of the work our map designers have done so far. Today, we would like to share our work on the Port of Rotterdam! The port is located in the second-largest city of the Netherlands, and from its beginnings as a fishing port in the 15th century, it turned into the biggest seaport in Europe! The area it covers is impressive in itself - over 40 kilometres long and 10 kilometres wide. The port accommodates around 130,000 river ships and approximately 30,000 oceangoing ships every year. In 2022, the p…

Earlier this year, we announced our Scandinavia Refresh project for Euro Truck Simulator 2, aiming to bring major improvements to one of our earliest DLCs.

Before we get into the details, please keep in mind that everything you see here is still very much a work in progress and is subject to change. That said, let’s have a closer look at some of the refreshed road networks, shall we? When the original Scandinavia DLC was first created, most of its junctions were built using the s…

As we continue to work on the upcoming Iowa DLC for American Truck Simulator, we’re excited to share more about a new and important industry that will be featured in this upcoming map expansion. Let's take a closer look, shall we? Did you know that Iowa is the largest producer of ethanol in the United States, making around 4.5 billion gallons each year? That’s nearly a quarter of all the ethanol produced in the country! So, what is ethanol used for? A lot more than you might realize, including solvents, perfumes, toiletries, disinfectants, preservatives, and polishes. It’s also used in the manufacturing of plastics, rubber, and pharmaceuticals, and it is increasingly be…

The first preview from the upcoming Illinois map expansion for American Truck Simulator has just arrived! Today, we would like to show you some truck stops that our map designers have been working on, so let's take a look. Truck stops are an essential part of the trucking industry, serving as more than just places to refuel. They offer long-haul drivers a convenient place to take a break and fulfill the mandatory rest period required after eight hours on the road. These first three truck stops are all located in close proximity to the city of Bloomington, right in the center of the Prairie State. Each one is inspired by their real-world counterpart and our map team is ma…

Happy Easter to everyone celebrating! This holiday is widely celebrated around the world and is often connected to an Easter egg hunt. Since we wanted to celebrate with you, we prepared a little egg hunt for you as well! In a traditional Easter egg hunt, which is a popular celebration during Easter, people typically hide eggs for others to find. When it comes to games, Easter eggs can encompass a wide range of elements, from hidden jokes and references to movies, celebrities, memes, and other clever surprises. These are usually hidden so not everyone discovers them too easily and feels rewarded if they stumble upon one of them. Our game is not any different - our map de…
