There are so many beautiful places that sometimes, I wasn't able to decide what to put into the map. Also, I don't always get the opportunity to work on something coastal. My only regret is that there are very few monuments from antiquity left in Greece. unfortunately, time has taken everything away and so we can't have those in our map,“ Aartee says. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4036972/207ffc2c13beac66e6020bde64c4fc7d2002dd75.jpg The team working on the Greece DLC visited the country last year to gather references for their work as you can read about in this blog.

Euro Truck Simulator 2 - 1.50 Update Experimental Beta

by Tiktak

We have some news for our #BestCommunityEver! Today, we're rolling out the Experimental Beta for the upcoming 1.50 update for Euro Truck Simulator 2. Why do we call our upcoming beta experimental? We need to manage expectations right from the start. We are starting the beta cycle this time from a rather early stage. The level of polish and stability is not the same as for our usual Open Betas. We believe in transparency with our community, and we also need to gather a lot of feedback early this time, to understand how well the features perform. That's why we're offering this Experimental Beta as a precursor to the Open Beta, giving you a glimpse of what's to come while acknowledging that it's still very much a work in progress. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4036972/2a8841f274269dfa5afad246cf412d676678a1bc.jpg Behind the scenes, our team is working hard on internal projects and releases, all scheduled for version 1.50 of our games.

Greece - Research Trip

by Tiktak

A few members of our Euro Truck Simulator 2 map set on a journey to Greece a few months back. Their quest? To gather references and inspiration to create the Greece DLC for our #BestCommunityEver as accurately as possible. Now, we interviewed them about their trip and how it benefited them! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/4036972/279b0d63b79097b94a602dfea6fa318a563d02da.jpg The team consisted of Ilona, Michal, Karina, Jakub, David, and Artur. In the course of eight days, they journeyed through Greece, from its southern reaches to the north, exploring islands, coastal stretches, and inland areas. "Our first destination was the drier and rockier Crete. The climate is reflected in the architecture, which is full of balconies and loggias shaded by awnings. Greece struck us as a very diverse, culturally and historically interesting country with lots of monuments and important sites. We mapped some of them in more detail, such as the Corinth Canal, the Meteora Monasteries, and the Rio-Antirio Bridge. As ...
