Let’s hope that mighty engine sound will be recorded well .

P.S. Electric DAF NG may be presented on the stream tomorrow. No Scania upgrades for now.

HECK YES!!! One of my favorite muscle cars!

It's so weird seeing cars the focus on an SCS Software blog post, lol!

[MasterXtreme]

Mopar or no car.  That Dodge Challenger Hellcat screams freedom.

Is there more cars in the Dodge DLC than the others?  We know of a Viper, a Challenger Hellcat, a Ram 1500 pickup, a classic Charger... I feel I am missing something.

One more electric truck!

Again, it’s available only for Quick Jobs shorter than 350 km. I still don’t believe the players care about the electric trucks as long they aren’t available for buying .
One interesting detail I heard on this stream — turns out, the hired driver may leave you company (and send the goodbye letter) if their truck is in poor condition. I have never seen this in the game — seems like you need to give the driver something bought at the used truck market with 0/5 stars condition .

Also, the engine seems to be too screamy, if compare with the electrucks we already have... while slowing down, that sound even resembles the old-fashioned jet engines. The blind spot alarm has a new sound, less aggressive than on the older trucks.
P.S. Unlike the Renault and Scania electric-powered trucks, the electric DAF still has a diesel engine icon in the Truck Explorer . Maybe, the report is already on the SCS Forum while I am typing this.

Give me that V8 power of the Challenger! That's such a cool looking car.

Some interesting art . . . but yeah, like the least important thing.

SCS also said the Halloween event will be very different this year.  I always thought they could use that snow map and turn it into a Halloween, autumn location.  Or spooky place!!

You are probably right.  A unique map just like we have for Christmas.

Going off of this, they've been teasing that on streams recently. We will find out very soon. I think it will be a unique map.

If they go the autumn route, it is just another "Season" they will have completed. One step closed to a changing seasonal world map in certain places? Maybe....

[FoxTail]

Another map? You think so?

It came true!!!!

Witches of Brackenreach Event

Double, bubble, engine rumble,
Through the marsh and forest, tumble.
Fog drifts low and lanterns flicker,
Magic stirs as night grows thicker.

In the swamp where wisps do play,
Haul your load a ghostly way.
Past the roots of crooked trees,
Through the howl of autumn breeze.

Brackenhelm in moonlight glows,
Winding roads where mystery flows.
Cauldron brews and herbs ignite,
Witches sing in veiled delight.

“Driver bold, come cross our land,
With pumpkin magic treats in hand.
From dock to keep, from vale to shore,
Six runs you need—and maybe more!”

Autumn leaves and shadows dance,
Air is thick with spectral chance.
But fear not ghosts or forest groans—
The witches guard these ancient stones.

So light your lamps and clutch the wheel,
For Halloween tonight is real!
Through portal gates you now shall go,
To Brackenreach, where legends grow.

Upon return, attend the call,
To spread the spooky treats for all,
Not just to Brackenhelm as one,
But cities, towns and everyone.

For Hauloween is in the air,
And there’s no time to flee nor dare
To hide away from all the treats
That wait for you, but not to eat,
NO, they must be hauled, delivered quick,
Then parked away, now that’s the trick!

This year the goal is 1,500,000 deliveries! Personal goals consist of completing 15 Halloween deliveries across any trucking territory, including 3 to and 3 from Castle Brackenhelm. Using External Contracts with a World of Trucks-connected profile in Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator, or both, the community goal is to achieve 1,500,000 deliveries of Halloween treats and supplies to or from any city, including the mysterious land of Brackenreach, where your destination will be Castle Brackenhelm.

Oooooh!!! This is exciting! Can't wait to try it out.  I think I will try it from ETS2.

[Soda]

I did my first few deliveries and one was to Brackenreach! That place is a maze!!!! I don't know if the roads change, but the route they give is NOT the route you end up taking.

[flemishcap]

It took me over thirty minutes to get to the castle!!!

[Anyponedrawn]

The upcoming screenshots get me so excited for the new content coming to both games! I just plunked down a chunk of money and am replacing my 12 year old gaming computer. Starting all new. Can't wait to see how it changes my driving experience! I will get more than 30fps!!! That will be neat.

What are you getting?
