American Truck Simulator

About American Truck Simulator

Drive classic American trucks across California, Nevada, and Arizona, taking freight jobs and progressing from a hired driver to the owner of a transport company.

American Truck Simulator is a freight-hauling and business simulation developed by Czech studio SCS Software. Players begin as hired drivers, earning money by completing deliveries safely and on time before building independent trucking companies of their own. Licensed vehicles include classic American trucks from Freightliner, Kenworth, Peterbilt, Volvo, and Mack. Cabins, chassis, paint schemes, and engines can be extensively customized. Cargo ranges from food to machinery and hazardous materials, while trailer types include refrigerated boxes, flatbeds, lowboys, and goosenecks up to 53 feet long. Jobs require attention to weight limits, with possible inspections at weigh stations. Local traffic laws and speed limits apply, and speeding can result in fines. Professional simulation options include air brakes, retarders, and transmission settings, with support for steering wheels and gamepads. Players can purchase garages, hire drivers, and manage their companies for greater profit. World of Trucks is SCS Software’s optional online community service for sharing screenshots and customized avatars and license plates; it is not required to play. The base game launched with California, Nevada, and Arizona, while DLC has expanded the map into states including Oregon, New Mexico, and Colorado. American Truck Simulator supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, and its Steam page lists a Simplified Chinese interface. Console versions were confirmed in early 2026.
