Over the last few months, truckers from across the globe have taken part in our World of Trucks events for Euro Truck Simulator 2 & American Truck Simulator; Cruising Nebraska & Trade Connections Switzerland. Showcasing both our latest map expansion and the reworked country of Switzerland, our #BestCommunityEver worked hard to successfully complete both of these events before their end date.
We want to thank all of you for your participation & dedication during both these events, and we hope you enjoyed exploring Nebraska, and rediscovering the beauty of Switzerland! We've especially enjoyed reading and sharing some of the messages, pictures, videos and more from you on the road in ETS2 & ATS whilst taking part in these events.
As always, we've created a small infographic which shows some of the statistics from both of these events, which include the number of jobs completed/tonnes of cargo delivered and miles travelled.
Incredible work truckers! We cannot thank you enough for your support during the release of Nebraska, and for your positive comments on the reworked area of Switzerland. It really does bring a lot of joy to our team to see how much you enjoy participating in these events. We hope you ride with pride with your newly acquired in-game items which you have earned. Don't forget to claim them through WorldofTrucks.com.
We look forward to bringing you more World of Trucks events in the future. Let us know in the comments or on our Social Media channels (X, Instagram, Facebook) what events you'd potentially like to see in the future! We really appreciate your ongoing support and look forward to more exciting adventures on the road together. Until then, keep on truckin'.
We have the first piece of news for our #BestCommunityEver from the upcoming 1.51 update! Following your feedback, we have decided to update the vegetation in our Texas map expansion to better reflect reality. So let's take a look at what will change in the 1.51 update for American Truck Simulator!
We aim to reflect our community's wishes and listen to their feedback. That's why our map designers, in collaboration with our vegetation department, have replaced the older pines with more accurate loblolly pines, which are native to this area.
The loblolly pines were initially created for the Arkansas DLC but also naturally grow in Texas. To enhance realism and ensure a smoother transition when driving between these states, truckers will now encounter an abundance of these trees throughout the entire eastern part of Texas - along roads, in forests, and within towns.
These pines can reach heights of up to 125 feet, with trunks measuring up to 4 feet in diameter. They boast a dense, rounded crown of dark, blue-green foliage.
We hope you will appreciate our teams' attention to detail, going back to previously released map expansions and updating them based on your feedback to correct any imperfections. Until this update is released, make sure to follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube to catch all the latest ATS information. We will see you on the virtual roads!
Today, we would like to share some very exciting news with our #BestCommunityEver. We have partnered with Schmitz Cargobull to bring their well-known trailers into Euro Truck Simulator 2! The Schmitz Cargobull Trailer Pack DLC is now available on Steam.
You can now pair your truck with this renowned German brand, established in 1892 and easily recognized by its iconic blue elephant logo. Schmitz Cargobull is known for its innovative designs and high-quality trailers, making it a trusted name in the logistics and transportation industry. With a global presence, the company continues to set standards for efficiency and reliability in trailer manufacturing.
The Schmitz Cargobull Trailer Pack includes eight new branded trailers and also five cabin accessories that you can decorate the interior of your truck with!
As always, each trailer offers a wide range of customization options. You can choose from various chassis, bodies, side protections, rear bumpers, rear doors, storage boxes, and water tanks.
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank our partners at Schmitz Cargobull, as they have been amazing while working with us on bringing their trailers to life in the world of ETS2 by consistently sharing data, providing feedback, and answering our questions.
Γειά σας! Today we're happy to share with you a new post on our upcoming Greece DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2. This blog focuses on the city Trikala (Τρίκαλα) and what you can expect to see on your future travels to this area. Ready to take a look? πάμε!
This city certainly has a lot history! Built upon the ancient town of Trikki, founded around 3.000 BC, Trikala's centre is a labyrinth of narrow streets and historical neighbourhoods. For this reason, truckers won't be able to travel through the city. However, our team has recreated the northern and eastern outskirts of the city where drivers will find plenty of delivery contract options.
Located in the outer eastern area of the city is the industrial area, where drivers will find a range of industries including logistic depots, warehouses and a supermarket to deliver to and from. Each one of them is detailed to match their real-life counterparts. In these areas, you'll also be able to enjoy views of the nearby mountain range.
In the Northern area, you'll find the agriculture sector of the outer city, including grain silos and other related industries. You'll also find a brand new industry in Trikala, but we will keep that surprise for another blog in the future.
We look forward to featuring more of the cities, industries and even more from our upcoming Greece DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2. If you like what you see, be sure to add Greece to your Steam Wishlist, as it really supports us and our future releases. We thank you for your support. Until next time, keep on truckin'.
