World of Trucks Events: A Temporary Pause to Build Something Better

Our dearest community,

Over the years, World of Trucks events have become a very special part of our shared journey. Whether it was exploring new maps and economies during Cruising events, contributing to continental goals in Trade Connections, building new landmarks in Operation Genoa Bridge, or taking part in magical seasonal experiences like the Witches of Brackenreach or Woven Wonders of Winterland, each event has offered something new, something fun, and brought the community together in its own unique way.

A Temporary Pause for a Stronger Future

Today, the team at SCS Software would like to share with the #BestCommunityEver that World of Trucks events will be taking a temporary pause. This decision is an important step for the future of these community experiences.

This pause allows the team to invest time into improving the underlying systems and infrastructure that support events. This means reworking how events function behind the scenes and how they are experienced in-game. The goal is to build a stronger foundation for all future events.

Bringing Events Directly In-Game

As part of this work, the team wants to bring much more of the event experience directly into the game itself. Planned improvements include the ability to:

• View and redeem rewards without leaving the game
• Earn and view achievements seamlessly
• Follow event progress and community milestones
• All directly in-game

These changes will make participating in events more intuitive and rewarding. The team believes this integration will enhance the overall experience for everyone involved.

Looking Ahead

The team has even more ideas in development, but is not quite ready to share them just yet. When the time is right, they will return to running favourite events and share more about what lies ahead.

You can think of this as the first step in building a stronger foundation for future events. One that will allow the team to create experiences that are more engaging, rewarding, and flexible. This new foundation will support a wider variety of formats, ideas, and durations.

What to Expect in the Meantime

While events are on pause, the team will continue bringing new content, updates, and improvements across both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator. Development on map expansions, vehicle updates, and other features continues as usual. For more on what’s coming, check out our latest development roadmap.

A Thank You to the Community

Thank you, as always, for your support, feedback, and passion. It truly means a lot to the team. The World of Trucks events pause is temporary, and the team looks forward to returning with something even better.

We’ll see you on the road.
