Euro Truck Simulator 2 – Eastern European Expansion announced.

[AFG_gallery id=’281′]

SCS Software are happy to announce that they are working on the first official add-on for Euro Truck Simulator 2.

This map expansion is centering on Eastern Europe with special focus on Poland, so they took the opportunity of a press-day taking place at our Polish publishing partner CDP to let the word know about it yesterday.

Quote:

We have been working on the expansion for some time already, we have bits and pieces to show already, but there is still a lot of work left to complete the new part of the map.

Why go East for the first map expansion? With all respect to our truck sim games’ fans across the globe, Polish fan community is one of the most active and most supportive. Cooperation between CDP and SCS in Poland is also exemplary. So we felt that this region is a great candidate for testing out if creating map expansions is going to become a viable business for SCS Software. It would be great if the market can prove that growing the world of Euro Truck Simulator 2 is not lost time for us.

Once ETS2 EEE is completed, we’ll have to decide where to go next… Scandinavia? Rest of France with an option to go toward Spain? Italy? Balkans? Continue East towards Russia? We will have to try to come up with a method to understand the highest potential and set the priorities right…

Final note: This map add-on/DLC will not be free (we are pondering ~EUR 10 price point), but it’s an optional expansion. Throughout the year 2013, we are going to keep improving the core game with free updates for everybody with fixes and many improvements, including for example all new trucks models, or new AI code. So while the 1.3.x patch is very near, stay tuned for further patches coming down the road. And some surprises on top of it all ;-).
