I see some YouTubers already have the upcoming ATS map expansion in early access.
It’s a major spoiler, but if you want to see Louisiana DLC map, you can look here — of course, the size is no match for Nordic Horizons, but the density of road network is impressive .

They are running out of big states.  I have no idea how they are going to handle the smaller eastern states, especially the northeast.  My guess is they will have to change the scale for this part of the country.

^Change the scale or not, but the states themselves will probably be sold in bundles... If continue to make the next states only as separate DLCs, it would be a big complication of the game code. Also, the number of ATS DLCs is going to match this number for ETS, with all its paintjob packs .

Driving through a state like Delaware would probably take 30 seconds to drive through.  So yeah, they will have to rescale and sell in bundles.  Like an entire Northeast DLC.

This is possibly the reason we don’t have Andorra and Liechtenstein in ETS .

It would be weird to have ATS just ignore having Connecticut, Delaware, and Rhode Island.  They've made it such a big deal to have every state.  To just ignore some states would be unfortunate.

Cities on the Route 66

This Nordic Horizons DLC is easily my favorite DLC of ETS2. It's massive.  You can spend so much time here, just driving and exploring. It's beautiful.

NHorizons is amazing.  That's all I can say so far.

SURPRISE! LOUISIANA is out today! December 4th, 2025!  It honestly snuck up on me!  This is the Cruising Louisiana Event video with all the rules and rewards.

Pelican State is here!

From the far north of Europe to far south of USA in just a week!
I was thinking what should I use for exploring the new state... until they showed the video with yellow Peterbilt. So, yellow Peterbilt it is .

(of course, I would like to see Model 589 in the game already. I hope we will see it next year)

UPD:
As a big contrast with Nordic Horizons, here the cities discovering achievement was unlocked on the third delivery .


I like this location in Baton Rouge — if you catch the train, you can capture the four ways of transportation in one photo. In a couple of minutes from it, there are a good example of negligent city services — the left turn traffic light can be normally seen (from the lane it is intended, of course) only in the night, when it illuminates everything around .

Speaking of flying machines — behold, the second Starfighter in *TS universe (after Greek one), this time on a stick. I am not surprised we see an American fighter jet in Europe first — after all, we still don’t have that small Bell helicopter as ATS cargo, while Europeans are able to carry it for almost ten years.

That painting on the wall made me stop and look one more time, since the cook’s white smile have reminded me the creepy comics by that Spanish artist . But no, the second look made me sure it’s totally different style.
