1.28 Open Beta

Open Beta 1.28 for Euro Truck Simulator 2 is now ready for you to try!



This update will bring the highly desired functionality of double trailers into the game. For their initial introduction, we will make transportation jobs with double trailers only available in the countries of Scandinavia, where we know them to be legal. We will be looking into additional territories or stretches of the road around Europe where local regulations allow for them to be operated, to expand your transportation choices in the future. For those interested in the details, you should look here and here. Nonetheless, we are sure it will be amazing to drive doubles through narrow roads and steep hills of Scandinavia for now.









Another highly visible feature coming with 1.28 is the option to use alternate backgrounds for the game's main menu.



New light flares have been a big change that was worthy of its own dedicated announcement and you can take a look at it here.

We're looking forward to what modders have in store for our latest Open Beta, we're sure it will be amazing as usual. One of the reasons for providing early access to our betas is to make sure that modders can test-drive their creations and adapt to any new stuff or technology changes before the final official update hits the servers.

Update info and DAF XF 105 improvements

We know that our fans are waiting for any new information about the status of the upcoming update for our games. We finally believe that the extensive internal testing of the new content for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator is almost complete. An Open Beta stage is planned next, but we do not want to release a build of the game with any known issues even into beta. At this point, we are still tweaking the last little things so we can invite you all to test new content as soon as possible, hopefully early next week.

In addition to new features, you can look forward to improved DAF XF 105 in the next update for Euro Truck Simulator 2. We have revisited the truck model and made quite some changes to the Exclusive and Standard interior. In the exterior, the changes touched stock sun shield for Super Space Cab and Super Space Cab Plus.


We're constantly striving not only to deliver new content but also to improve the existing one that we can proudly offer the highest standard of truck simulators to our fans.
