It was actually a relief to not have daily blog updates.   Can't wait!!

So excited for this! I can't wait to go as FAR NORTH as we can go!

Ferries and Moveable Bridges of Louisiana

This time they look smaller than in Oregon and Washington.

November 27th release for Nordic Horizons.  Again, I wish they released this BEFORE the Thanksgiving break, but in typical SCS fashion, they like to release these AFTER holiday breaks so people don't have time to play.

Very much so. Also much older infrastructure.  Louisiana is poor.

Meet the Iceland Team

Back in 2012, SCS had 12 people working on a whole game, and now they can afford to use 2/3 of that number just for a small map DLC. I wonder how many people are working on the vehicles.

I always like these teams blog posts.

Cities of South Dakota

At least they have some natural scenery on the background .

[RainySunshine]

South and North Dakota have a lot of beauty. It's just so remote and hidden . . . think of it as like Wyoming or parts of Montana.

Sturgis is also located in South Dakota! Home to the biggest motorcycle ride event in the country! I see Spearfish in the photos, which is near Sturgis. I wonder if the historic western town will appear in the game?

For a second I got excited thinking NHorizons was coming out today for some reason.

ATS 1.57 is already out! No wonder that the beta test was so short, with that small amount of new content... aside from preparation to Louisiana DLC release .

[FoxTail]

That means Louisiana has to be very close. Probably shortly after Nordic Horizons?

[Anyponedrawn]

Very close! Louisiana will release this year. It has to be before the Christmas Wonderland event.  So we will have the Nordic Horizons World Of Trucks Event, the Louisiana WoT event, and shortly after the Christmas WoT event.  There will certainly be some overlap.

Two weeks, I guess?
To give us enough time for exploring the new Scandinavian roads .

So we will have the Nordic Horizons World Of Trucks Event, the Louisiana WoT event, and shortly after the Christmas WoT event.

Also, is there a chance to see some new (or, at least, updated) truck this December?
Yes, we already have the full set of American truck brands, but who doesn’t want to try Volvo VNL 2025, or the current version of Peterbilt 579?

This has to be one of the most lifeless news reporters and reports I've ever witnessed.  Apparently Canada just noticed they are coming to American Truck Simulator!  This is a news report from CBC!  The reporter as I said is lifeless and shows zero excitement (terrible work) but we see some SCS faithful and some other's opinions.
