We're back with another episode of our SCS On The Road series! This time, we're joined by Polish YouTuber and content creator Wujek Bohun, who we recently had the pleasure of welcoming to our offices for a tour and a chat! You may have already seen his own video from the visit on his YouTube channel, but today we're excited to share our interview with him in his own studio!


In this episode, we sat down with Wujek to learn more about his journey as a content creator, how he first got started on YouTube, and the experiences that shaped his career along the way. We also took a trip down memory lane as he shared his earliest memories of video games and how his passion for them has developed over the years. 

Of course, we couldn't miss the opportunity to talk about Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator! From his favourite DLCs to some of the features and improvements he'd love to see in the future, we covered plenty of interesting topics. We recommend turning on the subtitles on YouTube, as this interview was recorded in Polish. A big thank you to Wujek Bohun for taking the time to visit us and sharing his story! We hope you enjoy this latest episode of SCS On The Road, and don't forget to drop a like and subscribe if you liked it. Until next time, keep on truckin'!

October has come to an end, and we're excited to share the results of this year's efforts! Throughout the month, our #BestCommunityEver came together once again to support an important cause, helping us turn our shared passion for trucking into something that reaches far beyond the virtual roads.We're incredibly happy to announce that, thanks to your support of our Pink Ribbon Charity Packs for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, we have raised 32,000 USD!This achievement wouldn't have been possible without you. Every charity pack purchased, every screenshot shared, and every bit of awareness spread throughout the community helped contribute to this result. It's always inspiring to see how our players come together when there's an opportunity to support something meaningful.As with previous years, 100% of the proceeds from the Pink Ribbon Charity Packs will go towards supporting the Alliance of Women with Breast Cancer, helping them continue their valuable work for people in need.Of course, breast cancer awareness shouldn't be limited to a single month of the year. Pinktober gives us a special opportunity to bring more attention to the subject, but staying informed, encouraging regular check-ups, and supporting those affected should remain important throughout the year. Every conversation and every effort to spread awareness can make a difference.To everyone who took part in Pinktober 2026, whether by purchasing a charity pack, sharing your creations, or simply helping spread the word, thank you! Your generosity has once again shown just how much good a community can accomplish when it comes together.We're proud to have you with us, and we hope to see you back for another Pinktober campaign in the future.

Velkomin til Reykjavíkur! Today, we're heading to Iceland's capital, Reykjavík, for a closer look at its recreation in our upcoming Iceland DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2, which releases on November 10th, along with new Special Transport routes coming to the island. Ready to explore? Let's hit the road!


Located on the Seltjarnarnes peninsula, Reykjavík is the heart of Iceland and home to some of the country's most recognisable landmarks, offering a mix of urban life, beautiful waterfront views and surrounding natural landscapes. Bringing Iceland's capital to life within our game's map scale presented some interesting challenges for our map designers. With the city centre situated on a peninsula, surrounded by numerous suburbs that make up the Greater Reykjavík area, space was limited. Our team had to carefully balance the city's road network, industries and famous landmarks whilst ensuring enough room remained for the surrounding landscape and destinations.


Of course, we couldn't miss out on recreating the well travelled Route 41, which connects Reykjavík with Keflavík! Winding its way through the capital, this important route takes drivers past various industrial areas and plenty of points of interest, eventually leading towards the city's iconic waterfront. You can also travel along a short section of Route 49, which connects the city to Iceland's famous Ring Road, known locally as Hringvegur. 
Of course, a capital city needs its industries, and Reykjavík is no exception! Truckers will find a variety of depots spread across the city and its surrounding areas, each representing an important part of Iceland's economy.


Among the industrial locations you'll discover is the Straumsvík aluminium smelter, Iceland's first and longest-operating aluminium reduction facility. Further east, near Route 36, you'll also find a farming area in Mosfellsdalur, offering a different kind of delivery experience away from the busy capital.
Closer to the city, you can discover the coastal town of Garðabær, which are a part of Reykjavík's suburbs. Here, you can find an IKA store and a logistics hub. Towards the waterfront, you'll reach Sundahöfn, one of Reykjavík's most important industrial and harbour areas, featuring a large container port and a recycling company offering delivery opportunities.


Transport is a vital lifeline for many of Iceland's residents, helping to keep communities connected and essential supplies moving across the island. Near Reykjavík, you'll also find an oil storage facility, which plays an important role in supplying fuel to the capital and its surrounding region.


Truckers looking to take a break or make a new home in the capital will also find a Volvo truck dealership, a service station and a garage available to purchase in this area. However, there's much more to Reykjavík than just its industries! Our map designers have also worked hard to recreate some of the capital's most famous sights, particularly along its beautiful waterfront.


One of the most recognisable landmarks you'll encounter is the spectacular Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre. Situated right beside the harbour, this striking modern building is famous for its distinctive glass architecture. Just opposite, you'll also spot the Central Bank of Iceland, along with other familiar sights such as the harbour's iconic yellow lighthouses and the statue of Ingólfur Arnarson, traditionally recognised as Reykjavík's founder.


Further along the shoreline, keep an eye out for the Sun Voyager, a beautiful steel sculpture inspired by the form of a Viking ship, overlooking the sea. From here, you'll also be able to admire Reykjavík's unique skyline, dominated by the unmistakable tower of the Hallgrímskirkja church. This iconic landmark can be spotted from several locations around the city, including from a distance as you approach the capital.


Near the harbour, you'll also find a recruitment agency and a coach terminal, the latter having been relocated slightly from its real-world position to better fit within our map's scale.Whether you're arriving in Reykjavík for a delivery, searching for your next job or simply exploring the capital, we hope you'll enjoy discovering the many details our map designers have included. But there's more to Iceland than its beautiful cities and scenery. For those looking for a bigger challenge, we've got a big delivery in store! BIG in Iceland - Special Transport Routes Looking for an even bigger challenge on your Icelandic adventures? We're excited to reveal that 4 new Special Transport routes will be available across the island for owners of the Euro Truck Simulator 2 Special Transport DLC! 


These routes will take you across Iceland's unique road network, hauling some of the largest and heaviest loads with the assistance of professional escort teams. You'll have the opportunity to transport cargo such as large reservoir tanks, silos, boats, enormous tyres and underground loaders.


We're also excited to introduce a brand new cargo to haul, The Articulated Dumper! A massive piece of machinery previously only available in American Truck Simulator! Here's where you'll be able to take on these oversized deliveries:

• Selfoss to Selfoss
• Keflavík to Selfoss
• Blönduós to Akureyri
• Ólafsvík to Hólmavík

Each route will bring its own challenges, so be sure to follow your escort vehicles, watch your surroundings and take extra care when navigating these enormous loads across Iceland!


We hope you've enjoyed this look at Reykjavík and the new upcoming Special Transport routes! If you're excited to explore the Land of Fire and Ice on November 10th, be sure to add the Iceland DLC to your Steam Wishlist and follow us on our social media channels. Until next time, keep on truckin'!

The eerie mists have lifted, the candles have burned low, and the portals to Brackenreach have closed once again! Our Return to Brackenreach World of Trucks event has officially come to an end, and what a spooktacular adventure it has been!


We'd like to thank every single driver who took part in this year's Halloween celebration and helped uncover the mysteries hidden within the marshes and moonlit roads of Brackenreach.
Together, our amazing community completed an incredible 1,630,883 deliveries, surpassing the community goal! Your dedication and teamwork once again proved that our #BestCommunityEver can rise to any challenge, even those from beyond the veil!


Of course, no Halloween adventure would be complete without a few treats! Drivers who completed their personal goal of 15 or more deliveries earned the mystical Wisp Lantern cabin item. Thanks to your combined efforts in completing the community goal, those who achieved their personal goal also unlocked the fabled Key to Brackenreach hanging cabin item!


But that's not all! We also recorded 120,116 visits to the mysterious Witches' House. Those brave enough to discover this hidden location unlocked the Ember Grimoire cabin item, along with last year's Spooky Horn vehicle accessory, both awarded as Steam inventory items.


We've truly enjoyed seeing your fantastic screenshots and videos shared under #ReturnToBrackenreach. From eerie roads shrouded in mist to beautifully decorated trucks, your creativity and enthusiasm helped make this Halloween celebration one to remember!


As the last trucks make their way home and Brackenreach falls quiet once more, we hope you enjoyed your spooky adventures! Who knows what mysteries might await beyond the veil in the future?

Sometimes, the next great trucking adventure begins where the road ends! Today, we're setting sail for Iceland as we take a closer look at the ferry connections featured in our upcoming Iceland DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2 which releases on November 10th! Ready to come aboard? Let's take a look at what's in store! 


Unlike most destinations in Euro Truck Simulator 2, reaching Iceland isn't quite as simple as following the road. With the North Atlantic separating the island from mainland Europe, truckers will need to take to the seas. To make this journey possible, our map designers have included several ferry connections from existing European ports, along with an additional crossing to help you explore Iceland once you've arrived. 


The first connection takes truckers from Hirtshals in Denmark to Seyðisfjörður, a picturesque village nestled among the mountains and fjords of eastern Iceland. This route is based on a real-world ferry service operated by Smyril Line. 


Another option will take truckers from Rotterdam's Europoort in the Netherlands to Þorlákshöfn, located on Iceland's southwestern coast. In reality, this route is operated by Smyril Line Cargo as a freight service, but we've adapted it into a regular ferry connection for players to use with their trucks and trailers. 


We're also introducing a connection between Ålesund in Norway and Seyðisfjörður. While this route doesn't exist in real life, we've included it to provide more travel options and connect some of our newest map content. There's also a little history behind this choice, as Norway and Iceland share a maritime heritage dating back to the ninth century, when settlers sailed from Norway to Iceland. As part of this addition, the previously inaccessible ferry port in Ålesund will also open to players! 


But the ferries aren't just for reaching Iceland! Truckers can also travel between Stykkishólmur and Brjánslækur, across the beautiful Breiðafjörður bay. This real world crossing passes through an area famous for its countless small islands and rich birdlife. It also offers a useful alternative to navigating the winding stretches of Route 60 in the northwest of the island. 


Speaking of water, we're also gradually adding locations with transparent water to Euro Truck Simulator 2, which will make their first appearance in the Iceland DLC. This allows players to see rocks and terrain beneath the water's surface, particularly in shallower areas. We've also added water foam effects in certain locations, such as fast-flowing rivers. These improvements will be visible across dozens of locations in Iceland, adding a little more detail to the surrounding environment. 


However, there's one thing to keep in mind before setting sail! Transporting your truck and trailer by ferry can come with a rather hefty price tag, so be sure to plan your journeys and finances accordingly. And of course, if you'd rather skip the sea voyage, you can always make use of Quick Travel to reach your garage in Iceland.


We hope you've enjoyed this look at the ferry connections coming to our Iceland DLC which releases on November 10th! Don't forget to add it to your Steam Wishlist to be notified of its release. We can't wait for you to explore the land of Ice and Fire! Until next time, happy trucking!

Today, we're taking a closer look at some of the viewpoints you'll be able to visit in the upcoming Iceland DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2, where you can take a break from the road and enjoy the surrounding scenery!Viewpoints in our games highlight notable places recreated by our map designers to represent their real-world locations. If you've visited one before, you'll know how it works: simply drive up to the viewpoint and activate the trigger to start a special cutscene, taking you around the area and showcasing its most interesting features.As you might expect, Iceland will feature plenty of viewpoints, with many of them highlighting the country's remarkable natural beauty. We've got quite a few prepared for you to discover, but we don't want to spoil all the fun of exploring them for yourself. So, today, we're sharing just a selection of what awaits you on the roads of Iceland!One of the first viewpoints we'd like to show you is the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall in southern Iceland, located right next to the Ring Road. This beautiful waterfall cascades around 60 metres down a cliff face, landing in a small pool below.If you venture southwest from Reykjavík to the Reykjanes Peninsula, you will come across another one - the Blue Lagoon - a popular health and geothermal spa. The Blue Lagoon was formed by chance in 1976 during the construction of the Svartsengi Geothermal Power Plant. The plant's excess geothermal seawater flowed into a nearby lava field, gradually forming the lagoon we know today. Its distinctive milky-blue colour comes from its high silica content, which reflects sunlight in a unique way.When you travel east of the capital city instead, you can find the Gullfoss Waterfall, also known as the "Golden Falls", one of Iceland's most famous waterfalls. Gullfoss stands out for its two-tiered drop, glacial source, and canyon setting, and it ranks among the most visited stops on waterfall tours.In eastern Iceland, make sure to see the Stuðlagil Canyon, a remarkable basalt rock formation in Jökuldalur Valley. It became visible in 2009, when a hydroelectric project lowered the water level of the Jökulsá á Dal River, revealing its impressive basalt walls. The canyon is known for its striking rock formations and the vivid blue glacial river flowing through it.Near Akureyri, don't miss the Goðafoss Waterfall, one of the most iconic places you can see in the Land of Fire and Ice. It takes its name from a legend dating back to around 1000 AD, when Iceland adopted Christianity. According to the story, chieftain Þorgeir Ljósvetningagoði threw his pagan idols into the waterfall to mark the country's peaceful transition to the new faith. There are plenty more viewpoints waiting for you to discover, including Þingvellir, Geysir, Jökulsárlón, and many more. But we'll leave the rest for you to explore and enjoy for yourself! If you're looking forward to discovering these places, be sure to add the Iceland DLC to your Steam wishlist!Don't forget to follow us on X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky, and TikTok to receive all the recent updates straight to your feed. You can also subscribe to our newsletter to stay informed. Until next time, happy haulin'!

The new garages feature updated visuals both in the interior and exterior, with greater attention to detail and a more modern, immersive feel. We hope this will make upgrading your garage feel even more rewarding.Of course, performance was also an important consideration. Bringing these new garages to the game while keeping their performance cost in check compared to the older models was no small task, but we hope we’ve found the right balance between improved visuals and performance. You can read more here.Improved Material SystemWe are continuing to expand the Improved Material System with this update, bringing it to more truck interiors. The Iveco S-Way is the latest addition to the lineup, benefiting from enhanced lighting and improved visual quality, with a particular focus on how different interior materials react to light.We hope you enjoy the new beautiful visuals!

Get the Irn Bru chilled, grab yourself a Tunnock’s, and get ready for a wee trip north of the border! Today, we’re buzzing to give you your first proper look at Edinburgh as part of our ongoing UK Rework project for Euro Truck Simulator 2. So, nae messing about, let’s get stuck in and see what’s changed in Scotland’s historic capital. 


Edinburgh is a city packed with history, character and some of Scotland’s most recognisable architecture. From its historic Old Town to its famous castle, the Scottish capital has a distinctive look which our team has been working hard to capture in-game. 


Of course, no recreation of Edinburgh would be complete without Princes Street! Around this famous shopping street, players will be able to spot several of the city's most famous landmarks, including the Scott Monument, the iconic clock tower of The Balmoral Hotel, and Edinburgh Castle overlooking the city from Castle Rock. 


Another landmark players may spot on their travels is Arthur's Seat, one of Edinburgh's most famous natural sights. Rising above the city, it can be seen from many areas around the capital and beyond.

However, our team wanted Edinburgh to feel like much more than just a collection of famous landmarks. As you travel through the city, you'll encounter a mixture of busy commercial streets & residential neighbourhoods. 


You'll also find plenty of history around the city too, including churches and statues of notable figures placed throughout the city. One such statue can be found at Picardy Place, where Sherlock Holmes keeps a watchful eye over the surrounding streets! We felt this was a rather elementary detail worth including in our recreation.


Head to the waterfront and you'll reach Leith, one of Edinburgh's main industrial areas in our rework. The Port of Leith forms an important part of this district, with its docks, yards and surrounding infrastructure. 

Looking for work? Players will find a selection of delivery opportunities around Edinburgh! Head to Leith for jobs at the port or a local construction site, or venture towards the outskirts of the city, where you'll find more locations to deliver to and from.


Drivers will also be able to find their own little rest spot by the seaside, as our team managed to place the Edinburgh garage right beside the coast! You may even spot some friendly furry friends hanging around, as the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home is located nearby.


We're also working to recreate some of Edinburgh's familiar public transport, including its trams and double-decker buses, which will help bring even more life to the city streets. Alongside this, Edinburgh Bus Station is being created with our upcoming Coaches DLC in mind, allowing players to pick up and drop off passengers as part of their journeys to and from the Scottish capital.


We hope you've enjoyed this wee look around Edinburgh and everything our team has been working on for the UK Rework! There’s still plenty more to come, so keep your eyes peeled and be sure to follow us on our social media channels for the latest news, screenshots and updates. Until next time, keep on truckin'!

Tonight the Autumn veil grows thin,
A portal swirls, and from within
The land of Brackenreach you hear
The Witches calling, crystal clear. They beckon you to help once more,
And welcome you upon their shore.
With fire, earth and air they say,
“Three gifts await along the way!” “Driver bold, come cross our land,
With pumpkin magic treats in hand.
From dock to keep, from vale to shore,
Six runs you need—and maybe more!” The tall ship waits beside the quay,
For tides the sisters stir at sea.
Past marshland mist and village glow,
Where grinning pumpkins watch you go. Through Dragon’s Den to Castle Keep,
Where shadows stir and secrets sleep.
The sisters watch as lanterns glow,
And guard the winding road below. As thanks, one wisp will light your way,
Where others lead the lost astray.
A brass key bears the rune of earth,
To show the sisters know your worth. Seek out the witches’ hidden home,
Where embers glow upon a tome.
The Ember Grimoire holds its spells,
To guard the land where magic dwells. Upon return, attend the call,
To spread the spooky treats for all,
Not just to Brackenhelm as one,
But cities, towns and everyone. For Hauloween is in the air,
And there’s no time to flee nor dare
To hide away from all the treats
That wait for you, but not to eat,
NO, they must be hauled, delivered quick,
Then parked away, now that’s the trick! This Halloween, prepare to cross the veil in our Return to Brackenreach - World of Trucks event! The hidden and treacherous roads of Brackenreach have reopened for truckers in Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, whether you are returning or entering the realm for the first time. Adventure and new rewards await, so let's roll!

It is another ambitious challenge, but after everything our community achieved last Halloween, we know that no goal is beyond your reach!As autumn thins the veil once more, the road to Brackenreach reopens. The three sisters who ward this land, mistresses of fire, earth, and air, have not forgotten the truckers who came to their aid last year, and this Halloween their call reaches beyond the veil once more. The marsh mist still hides the wisps that lead the lost, the tall ship still waits at the docks for tides stirred by old magic, and the pumpkins of the village still grin their crooked, knowing grins as you pass. In gratitude, each sister has prepared a special gift, kept safe until the road reopened. Help the witches and villagers once more by carrying Halloween supplies through the portals and along the winding roads to Castle Brackenhelm. Brackenreach remembers. Will you answer the call?Your personal goal?

The Improved Material System continues to make its way across our truck line-up! With the upcoming 1.62 update for Euro Truck Simulator 2 & American Truck Simulator, two more trucks will benefit from this upgrade, bringing further visual refinements to their interiors.


We hope you've been enjoying the Improved Material System and the refreshed look it brings to the interiors of our trucks! It has been great to see your reactions to these visual upgrades, and we would like to thank you for all of the comments, feedback & screenshots you have shared with us so far.

In the upcoming 1.62 update, our vehicle teams have expanded this visual improvement to the cabins of the Iveco S-Way in Euro Truck Simulator 2, and the All-New Volvo VNL in American Truck Simulator!


The improved material system significantly enhances the lighting and visual quality of vehicle interiors, with a particular focus on how different interior materials react to light. This results in a more detailed, readable, and visually pleasing cabin environment. It also makes the differences between materials such as leather, fabric, plastic, and metal much more apparent, even in low-light conditions. 


As promised, we are gradually bringing this feature to more trucks, allowing you to enjoy beautiful cabin interiors across a wider range of vehicles. If you would like to learn more about what the process of implementing this feature on new vehicles looks like, make sure to check out our Under the Hood blog, where we spoke with colleagues working on the improved material system.

We hope you will be happy to see the improved cabin interiors in more trucks with this upcoming update! Remember to stay tuned for more news from our games by following us on our X, Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, and YouTube. We would also appreciate it if you could sign up for our newsletter, so you can be informed. Until next time, keep on trucking!

Today, we bring you news from the upcoming 1.62 update for Euro Truck Simulator 2. As part of this update, we will be introducing new truck garage models across the map!

We already gave the truck garages in American Truck Simulator a refresh with the 1.58 update, and now it is time to give them the same treatment in Euro Truck Simulator 2. As you know, we are gradually reworking older areas of the base map, with the Benelux rework being the latest addition, while the rework for United Kingdom is currently underway. Garages are an important part of the map as well, so after many years, we felt it was time to bring them up to date and better align them with the newer areas of the game.With the release of 1.62, these new garage models will be introduced across the entire base map as well as all of the map DLCs. This means that wherever your journeys take you, you can look forward to seeing these refreshed garages along the way.Garages are also an important part of the truck driving experience. They are not only where you store your trucks and manage your drivers, but also a reflection of your growing company. From the smaller garages to the larger ones, we wanted to make them feel like places you would be happy to return to as your business grows.The new garages feature updated visuals both inside and out, with greater attention to detail throughout. Our goal was to make them feel more modern and immersive, which should make the process of upgrading your garage feel more rewarding.Of course, we also had to keep performance in mind. Bringing these new garages to the game while keeping their performance cost in check compared to the older models created many years ago was no small task, but we hope to have found the right balance between improving visuals and not increasing the toll on performance.With these changes, we hope the reworked garages will feel like a more natural and enjoyable part of your journeys. They are another step in bringing older parts of the game up to today's standards, and we look forward to continuing to refine the world of Euro Truck Simulator 2 in future updates.Remember to give our X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky, and TikTok a follow so you won't miss out on any updates from Euro Truck Simulator 2. Or subscribe to our newsletter to stay informed. Until next time, we wish you safe travels!
