The game promotes fast but safe driving, enabling you to recreate a realistic driving experience while visiting all four corners of the European continent. While other simulator games were focused on racing, this franchise remained consisted in asking its players to be careful drivers, to have endurance, skill, and to deliver their cargo to over 60 European cities that are connected with thousands of miles of realistic road networks and feature hundreds of famous structures and landmarks that every real trucker experiences on their long journeys.
In its original release version, Euro Truck Simulator 2 supported freeform driving across several European countries, including the UK, Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, and others. Released in 2012 and requiring a very modest PC configuration, this game skyrocketed in popularity and solidified a successful franchise that remains popular to this day. Euro Truck Simulator 2 marked a tipping point for the genre of trucking simulation games.
