Greece - Road Network: Highways & Junctions

Let's hit the road and explore Greece's highways and byways! In this blog, we're excited to showcase the intricate road network we've been working on for the upcoming Greece map expansion in Euro Truck Simulator 2.


Truckers will be able to get to Greece through six different border crossings. We have already shown you three of those in this blog. After arriving into the country, players will be able to travel in all directions thanks to multiple highways that we have recreated for this map expansion - the A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, and A8 - which will get you pretty much everywhere you need to go and will also include plenty of interesting and meticulously crafted intersections.


An important transportation hub will be the Igoumenítsa ferry, which acts as a vital point of access on the west coast of Greece, connecting the country with Italy. From there, three major European roads will await drivers and lead them through the rest of the country.


The E55 starts all the way north in Sweden and continues to the south of the Peloponnese peninsula. The E90 connects Portugal with Turkey and crosses Greece from the west to the Turkish border through Thessaloniki and then along the coastline. The E92 connects Greece's west coast with its east coast and goes through many cities, including Trikala.


Hopefully, we managed to get you a little bit more excited about this upcoming map expansion. If you like what you saw here, be sure to add Greece to your Steam Wishlist, as it really supports us and our future releases. Remember to stay tuned for more updates on the development of this DLC and other ETS2-related news by following us on our Twitter, FacebookInstagramTikTok, and YouTube Until next time, keep on truckin'.

1.51 Update: New Title Screen

With the upcoming 1.51 update for both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, one of the first and most prominent changes players will encounter is a complete redesign of the title screen.


Whilst keeping in line with our recent user interface rework, we wanted a design which is easy to navigate and understand for all players. First and foremost, one of the main difference you'll notice about the new title screen is the focus on a truck in the centre of the screen.


On the left side, you'll find the menu which allows easy access to the more important features of the game, such as Options, your Profile Manager, or other sub-menus such as the DLC Browser or Mod Manager which are now located under the 'Extras' part of the menu. You will also find the current version of the game displayed in the bottom left corner. If an update is available for the game, text above the version of the game will appear to notify you of that.


On the right side of the menu, you can find a widget featuring your currently selected profile and current trucker level. Hovering over this widget allows you quick glance at your profile statistics. In some cases, additional widgets may appear on the right side, for example, if your current profile is not connected to World of Trucks or if you are using a 'Open Beta' version of the game.

On the bottom right, you'll find our carousel of small banners, which gives players quick and easy access to the latest news from our official blog and features graphics presenting our newest releases.


Functionally, we have also made navigation more comfortable with a gamepad or a steering wheel, requiring less time reaching for a keyboard from the moment you launch ETS2 or ATS. This design also leaves us space to make tweaks and changes where needed, as-well as make additions in the future.

We hope you that enjoy this new look and overhaul of the Title Screen in the upcoming 1.51 update. Be sure to keep an eye our on our social media channels (X, Instagram, Facebook) for more news on other changes and additions found in this update. Until then, keep on truckin'!
