Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2) is a truck simulator game developed and published by SCS Software. It was released on October 18, 2012 through the SCS Software Store and released on Steam on November 14th, 2012. The game is a direct sequel to the Euro Truck Simulator from 2008. In October 2023 it reached the highest peak of 69,695 players [1]. The latest version update for Euro Truck Simulator 2 is 1.54.1.0.
A new gameplay system was introduced in Euro Truck Simulator 2. The player is required to create a profile and choose a city as their headquarters. You will then choose your difficulty level (the higher, the more realistic). Before you start your multi-million dollar logistics company, you will first have to complete quick jobs using provided trucks. Before purchasing your first truck, you must earn at least €100,000 or obtain a loan from the bank. As you complete various jobs and level up, you will unlock skills. Skills can be used to upgrade fuel efficiency and long distance cargoes as well as unlocking hazardous, fragile, and important deliveries earning you more money. Eventually, once you gain enough, you can buy a new garage or upgrade your original, which will allow you to store more trucks. From this point you can hire NPC drivers from a recruitment agency and provide each with a truck from a truck dealer to earn even more cash.
For people on Steam, various Achievements can be unlocked while playing.
The game includes many countries featured in previous titles. The map and simulated European roadway are more detailed than in previous games, and features more cities. New countries, such as Luxembourg and Slovakia are introduced.
The maps of Germany and the United Kingdom are derived from German Truck Simulator and UK Truck Simulator, respectively. These areas notably lack the quality of regions featured in more recent DLCs, such as the Scandinavia DLC and the Italia DLC. On May 23, 2018, SCS announced on their blog plans to rework parts of the old map, starting with northern Germany.[2] Following the release of version 1.40 on March 24, 2021, Germany has now been fully reworked to modern standards. On August 1, 2021, SCS announced that they will plan to rework old parts of Austria, after rework of Germany.[3] Following the release of version 1.44 on May 12, 2022, all parts of Austria have now been fully reworked from scratch. On September 6, 2022, SCS announced that they will plan to rework old parts of Switzerland, after rework of Austria.[4]
Currently in development.
Some of the trucks got licensed later than the rest when the Going East! DLC came out. There are seven truck brands available in the game:
There are numerous DLCs available for this game. Most of them are paint job packs, but 13 are map expansions, including new companies, new cargo and new cities. Others contain truck accessories and additional customizing options, or new trailers.
