A new chapter in the SCS On The Road series is here! The latest episode takes the SCS Software team to Munich, Germany, for an exclusive visit to the MAN Bus Forum. The mission: to gather crucial reference material for the highly anticipated Coaches DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2.

A Deep Dive into the MAN Lion’s Coach

The episode follows a specialized team from SCS Software, including Nemiro (Head of PR & Marketing) and Oscar (Chief Partnership Officer), alongside experts from the Vehicles and Sound departments. Their focus was a meticulous examination of the MAN Lion’s Coach to capture high-quality photos, video footage, and authentic audio recordings essential for in-game authenticity.

Expert Insights from MAN

The visit was enriched by a guided tour from Florian Rott, Product Marketing Manager at MAN Truck & Bus SE, who provided detailed insights into the design and features of this modern coach. This collaboration ensured the team gained a comprehensive understanding of the vehicle.

Building the Foundation for the Coaches DLC

Such on-location visits are fundamental to SCS Software’s development process. The gathered media references and sound samples are the building blocks that allow the studio to recreate vehicles like the MAN Lion’s Coach with an unmatched level of detail in Euro Truck Simulator 2. This dedication to realism is what allows players to enjoy a truly immersive driving experience.

SCS Software extends sincere gratitude to MAN Truck & Bus SE for their hospitality and support during a productive, albeit chilly, visit in Munich. The wealth of knowledge gained about the MAN Lion’s Coach Euro Truck Simulator 2 integration will directly benefit the upcoming DLC.
