Euro Truck Simulator 2 is an open world truck simulator game developed and published by SCS Software for Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS and was initially released as open development on 19 October 2012.[1] The game is a direct sequel to the 2008 game Euro Truck Simulator and it is the second video game in the Truck Simulator series. The game is non-linear with basic premise of the game being that the player can drive one of a choice of articulated trucks across a condensed depiction of Europe, picking up cargo from various locations and delivering it. As the game progresses, it is possible for the player to buy more vehicles and depots, as well as hire other drivers to work for them.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 is a truck driving simulator with business management elements. Players drive trailer-hooked trucks in an open world rendition of Europe, delivering loads to a designated locations in order to be compensated with money and experience points. The payload must be delivered to the destination within a given amount of time, and with the least amount of damage to the goods as possible, in order to net the most money and experience points possible.[3] Players will have to spend money on refuelling, toll costs in certain countries, and maintenance costs if damage is incurred
Trucks
Edit
The game includes two new truck companies, Scania and Renault, with MAN returning from the original game. Initially, DAF, Iveco, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo trucks were not officially licensed and had their names changed to DAV, Ivedo, Majestic and Valiant respectively. Later updates included the official branding for the DAF XF,[4] Volvo FH, Iveco Stralis,[5] Scania Streamline[6] and Mercedes-Benz Actros.[7]

In 2017 the new Scania S and R were introduced.[8] The MAN TGX Euro 6 was added as a playable vehicle on 8 February 2019,[9] followed by the Renault T on 26 September 2019.[10] On 6 April 2021, Renault Trucks unveiled their new T-High range of trucks through a joint venture with SCS Software, becoming the first time a new truck has been announced through a video game.[11] About three months later, on 10 June 2021 SCS Software announced the release of the new DAF XG and XG+ models, a day after their official reveal.[12] Then, on 6 December of that year, the company announced the release of the EfficientLine 3 model of the MAN TGX, followed by the release of the new model of the DAF XF a few days later on 14 December.

 The political status of Kosovo is disputed. Having unilaterally declared independence from Serbia in 2008, Kosovo is formally recognised as an independent state by 97 UN member states (with another 15 states recognising it at some point but then withdrawing their recognition), while Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory.
