Euro Truck Simulator 2 News

Everyone probably knows what's coming - at least everyone who saw any part of our hint and tease campaign on social media coordinated with Renault Trucks. So let's say it out loud - the wait is over! There were many hurdles to overcome to get here, but from this moment on, the Renault Trucks T Range is officially available in Euro Truck Simulator 2!

We absolutely loved your reactions since the first teaser post and we'd like to confirm that, as many of you had wished, the T Range in the game has a wide variety of configuration options. It comes with 2 cabins, 6 chassis, 6 engines, 7 transmissions, 5 interiors and a load of accessories! The T Range will be the third member of the Renault Trucks family in our game. Just as it is a true game-changer in the real-world, we foresee many Renault Trucks fans making the T Range their primary truck right away!









The T Range comes as a free addition for every owner of the game; if you update the game on Steam (which may or may not require a restart for some users), it will automatically be downloaded. Be sure to opt-out of any beta branches first!

The screenshots and video here are just appetizers for those who can't play right away, as we're sure that those who can will be sitting in their very own brand-new T Range pretty soon! Those still not persuaded to try it out should watch our stream (on Twitch and Steam) with Alex (LondonLad) and Oscar at 15:00 UTC (17:00 CET) and they'll change your minds!

From cities filled with culture, industries, and history to tiny villages nestled in the mountains. The Trakya region of Turkey is the gateway to Istanbul, which is Europe's largest city by population, and also the largest city among our sim-games. As you travel towards the city you will begin to see a mix of past and present infrastructure, such as historical landmarks found near rising modern apartment buildings.



With people comes the need for work and industry. With manufacturing being one of the country's biggest economies, you will be sure to find a range of interesting and unique deliveries to and from these cities.



We are excited to bring these new regions to the world of Euro Truck Simulator 2 for you to explore. Make sure to add Road to the Black Sea to your Steam wishlist to be the first to know when it releases! But until then yolunuz açık olsun.

We know how much drivers in our community love customising their trucks. From creating company paintjobs to cabin accessories, we love seeing how you personalise your rigs!

That's why we are excited to announce the release of a brand new tuning pack for the Actros Truck. With almost an endless range of tuning options, this pack allows you to create your Actros just the way you like it.



With this new pack you are able to customise your mud flaps, bumpers, bull bars, grilles, logos, windshields, visors, fenders, door handles, side skirts, exhausts, dashboard sets, lights and much more!



We can't wait to see how your Actros looks using this latest tuning pack, so be sure to tag us on social media with your photos. Which parts of your truck will you tune-up first?

We have been super busy in the recent days. Our On The Road team had to split up to visit five different countries on three continents in the past two weeks! Finally we are back in the office today to prepare the summary of both the Goodyear event and the community screenshot contest.

It is clear that our World of Trucks events engage and entertain the player community, we have been in fact surprised by the level of participation. We were glad to see that nobody complained much when we extended the event to give people more time to complete all the event jobs. The numbers are in, and so many people finished 10 jobs and earned the achievement!



For the community screenshot contest, there were over 2,000 valid entries (and much more photos actually, as many of you posted more than one). Many of the shots were absolutely stunning! Same as with our previous competitions, judging those entries was a pretty hard task because there's always way more beautiful pictures than there are slots for the winners.



Nevertheless, it had to be done and here are the winners! Feel free to express your love for these pictures too; the names are hyperlinked, so you are welcome to click on their names and give them a like!

All the winners above will be contacted shortly via the same platform they entered through; if you're one of them, do check your messages and choose your reward from our e-shop!

Thank you all for participation in Goodyear event. Until next time!

We are always excited and humbled at the same time when we hear that our games have profoundly and positively affected the lives of our fans. Marcus Armstrong sent us his story:

To everyone at SCS Software, especially those dealing with Euro Truck Simulator and American Truck Simulator. I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone involved, even though you have kind of lost a player.

I use to be an avid fan of the series playing Euro Truck Simulator, UK Truck Simulator and then both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, investing in steering wheels, Track IR and gear sticks for my PC.

Two years ago the company I worked for had been turning in a direction I was not overly comfortable with. I felt that it was moving away from its core values and what defined it as unique and I started considering an exit strategy. This exit strategy becomes more important when, out of a team of three, one of us had to take voluntary redundancy.

As the youngest team member in my mid-thirties, I decided that I would be in the best position to get started a new career, a career in different industry as I was a little burnt out doing what I was doing. I needed to be able to get into an industry where I could retrain quickly and earn what I was earning before, or more. I ended up, within a two month period, passing both HGV Class 2 and then Class 1 license. By the third month, I had a job with R.T. Keedwell which I have been doing for the last couple of years, driving a Mercedes Actros MP4 (which I am currently writing this from a truck stop for the night, good ol' Hotel Mercedes).



So why am I thanking you guys and gals at SCS? Well out of several industries I had been trained in; Web Dev, 3D Animation, Administration and Finance, it was ETS2 and ATS which I had enjoyed playing so much that I decided to take out a loan to cover the training costs and then base not just my career on, but my lifestyle as well, I am a Trucker (even grew the beard). I'm currently racking up 2500km a week driving all over the UK where no two days are quite the same and I meet countless people from the companies we haul for and other drivers.

SCS, you gave me the inspiration to venture out into a career I had never would have thought of and now love doing. So again, a huge heartfelt thank you and keep up the good work!

Thank you, Marcus, we are so happy for you! We wish you all the best and safe returns from your hauls.

Marcus is actually an Actros driver as you could notice from the text and photo. What a lucky coincidence - conveniently, we happen to have a very related project in the very final stages of development. More information will be available really soon.
