Arkansas - Hot Springs

Are you ready for another preview of the upcoming Arkansas DLC? Today, we want to show you some glimpses of the beautiful city of Hot Springs that truckers will be able to explore in this map expansion coming to American Truck Simulator!

Hot Springs, Arkansas, nestled in the Ouachita Mountains, boasts a captivating history intertwined with its natural thermal springs. Revered for their healing properties, the springs drew European settlers in the 19th century, transforming the area into a bustling resort town. The late 19th and early 20th centuries marked its peak, with Hot Springs earning the moniker American Spa.

Today, Hot Springs remains a haven for relaxation, anchored by the splendid Hot Springs National Park. Perfectly restored bathhouses now provide modern spa experiences in the Bathhouse Row, the city's historic and well-preserved downtown. Beyond its thermal springs, Hot Springs draws adventurers with plenty of outdoor activities, from hiking through the national park to leisurely cruises on nearby lakes. An array of events and festivals throughout the year ensures there's always something to captivate visitors in this enchanting Arkansas gem.

Truckers are in for a treat as they traverse the city's historic streets, passing by iconic landmarks steeped in history and charm. The journey might begin with a glimpse of the majestic Arlington Hotel, the city's most iconic historical landmark that has welcomed guests for over a century. Then you can spot the Fordyce Bathhouse Visitor Center and Museum, and the Maurice Bathhouse, a testament to Hot Springs' heyday as a premier spa destination. 

Not to be missed are the picturesque Central Baptist Church, the stately Hot Springs High School, the former U.S. Navy Hospital, and the historic First United Methodist Church. But that’s not all, you will surely discover more landmarks in this city once the Arkansas DLC is released! This beautiful spa resort is full of historical monuments, fountains, promenades, parks, and many depots for you to deliver into.

Keep in mind that this DLC is still a work in progress. If you are excited about the Arkansas DLC, make sure to add it to your Steam Wishlist! Stay tuned for more updates by following us on our TwitterFacebookInstagram, and YouTube

Nebraska - Lincoln & Omaha

Today, we are happy to share with you a look at two of the biggest cities (by population) that will be featured in our upcoming Nebraska DLC for American Truck Simulator. While both of them share some similarities, each are unique in their own way. Let's take a closer look, shall we? 

Omaha

Welcome to Omaha, Nebraska, a bustling city with a variety of industries, landmarks, and sights waiting to be explored by truck drivers traversing America's heartland. Situated at the crossroads of major highways and surrounded by key industries, Omaha offers a unique blend of urban excitement and Midwestern charm for drivers passing through or making a stop.

As the largest city in the State, Omaha will offer drivers a range of depots to deliver to and from. You'll find several different industries such as a large Cement Plant south of the city and a mill which may be a little tricky for some truckers to find. You'll also find a lovely view of the Missouri River & Omaha's Zoo from the Train Yard, which is located in the urban area of the city, where several other in-game depots and companies are based.

Drivers navigating around the city will be able to travel on some pretty major Interstate and Highway routes including the I-80, I-680 and US-75. As you navigate Omaha's streets, keep an eye out for a number of landmarks that showcase the city's vibrant culture and heritage! Whether you're passing through or making a pit stop, Omaha welcomes truck drivers from across the US to come and visit. 

Lincoln 

With its blend of Midwest charm, rich history, and diverse industries, Lincoln beckons visitors from across the State and beyond. As the Capital City of Nebraska, it has a lot to offer for truck drivers. In the North of the city you'll find a Vehicle Factory to deliver to and from, and in the East, you'll find a variety of industries and in-game companies including a Rail Yard and Agriculture Depot. 
 


As you  navigate Lincoln's streets, you'll encounter a mix of modern architecture and historic landmarks, along side the famous Memorial Stadium located in the heart of the city. You'll be able to experience all of them up-close as you travel on the US-6, which travels right through the centre of the city. 


From its bustling highways to its cultural gems, Lincoln offers something for every traveller on the road. We hope you'll take the time to explore all that this Capital City has to offer. Be sure to let us know what you're looking forward to seeing the most!
