Cytat:Although most people in the company are currently occupied with putting finishing touches to Scandinavia and working on ATS, we haven't forgotten about this project! (And in fact there is more stuff brewing across a couple of small 1-2 people teams in our office!)

A small team has been working on building and implementing coaches on top of our technology during the past two years. We have been building the vehicles, chasing licences, and exploring technical aspects of adapting the ETS2 world - the gameplay aim is to have the focus on multi-stop routes that would be quite different from standard delivery jobs currently available in Euro Truck Simulator 2.

Euro Coach Simulator
With coaches, you are not transporting some inanimate objects, so the focus on gameplay is passenger comfort and adhering to route schedule. We have been doing some prototyping iterations on how to translate this into a working gameplay element, and no doubt for a long time already you have been bumping into bits in the ETS2 world for which there is no use for cargo deliveries, but which look inviting should you drive around in a bus or a coach.

What is the vision for the project? For a short while, we have been toying with the idea of building it into a standalone game. But in the end we have realized that we do not have enough focus to do a full-scale production of all-new original content. With inevitable extensive reuse of material from Euro Truck Simulator 2, it is more fair to think about coaches as appearing in the form of a DLC, benefitting from the constant updates to the base ETS2 game and sharing the same ever-growing game world as the playfield for passenger as well as cargo transportation.

Keep an eye out on progress updates on our blog in future!
