Steam Workshop support & Open Beta
SCS Software is working on update 1.23 for ETS2, and 1.2 for ATS. One of the major features coming with the updates is support for Steam Workshop. Each player will be able to rate any mod, so high quality mods should quickly rise to the top. You will be able to sort mods by rank, popularity, or browse the most recent ones. If you are interested this topic find more information at SCS Blog website.
SCS was looking forward to the public beta where the community for both games will be able to evaluate and test the current implementation. Within just a few days of launching current open beta of Steam Workshop for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, both their games got inside Top 200 list of Steam games with the largest Workshops. Not bad considering the feature is still in beta! So far there is 148 items for ETS2 and 97 for ATS. Some of the mods have been downloaded over 10,000 times. Look HERE for more...

Euro Truck Simulator 2 France DLC
One of the SCS team is preparing a new major DLC expansion for the Euro Truck Simulator 2 game. It will be expanding a little France region we have in the game now to cover the whole country. This also includes a lot of touches to the existing areas (total overhaul of Paris region for example). The changed parts of the world will of course still be accessible in the base game, even if they are upgraded visually. Here is a couple of France DLC images from a more rural part of the world. It's work in progress still (you will notice some placeholders for new trees and shrubs in some of the shots).

American Truck Simulator 64 bit Demo
As you probably already know ATS officially only support 64-bit Windows/Linux/Mac operating system. So if you are still unsure whether to take the risk and buy the game for fear of technical incompatibility, SCS announces the availability of a free American Truck Simulator demo on STEAM Platform. The demo is limited by the number of jobs taken and only contains the state of California, but technically it's identical with the paid game itself. If you purchase the game after playing the demo, you can continue driving where you have left off, as the save game stored in the demo mode is compatible with the full ATS game. I would like to remind you about an exclusive steam-punk paint-job bonus DLC. It can be yours in exchange for "following link" on American Truck Simulator Steam page.
