Roextended 5.4 released for ETS2 1.62
Roextended Free and Premium 5.4 for ETS2 1.62 was released and available as always on Roextended.ro.
Changelog:
- fixed all reported bugs
- updated materials to ETS2 1.62
100% discovered study 11.07.2026
ATS and ETS2 1.62 are here, and I’m always getting ready to cover the entire vanilla maps with all DLC at 100%. The hero of this version is ETS2: this November we get the new Iceland DLC and a new way to explore the maps, by bus.
America is taking a break. On 1.62 it’s still 100%, so the ATS guide below is current, and the next big step will probably arrive in early 2027 with the British Columbia DLC.
The European guide is a bit outdated now. I created it for 1.60 and skipped the minor changes in 1.61, as well as the changes in 1.62, until Iceland rolls out on November 10th.
Promods 2.85 for 1.62 is also in the oven. I believe it will be integrated with vanilla Iceland and will later merge its own content into the new ETS2 expansion. I hope the Promods team won’t release a version without the Iceland DLC, as they did before with Nordic Horizons, just to ship a new version faster. Unfortunately, the community is pushing them, especially TruckersMP fans, so we may see two different versions again, which would obviously affect combo setups and create a mess again.
Below you can find 100% for ATS and ETS2. As well as 100% on ProMods 2.84.
Also let me remind you that my guides are less useful since starting of 1.61 we got Proximity Exploration feature and you can get your 100% with your truck or car (or later coach bus) without profile modifications and all this stuff.
ATS 1.61 – 100% Explored map with all DLC including South Dakota (October 2026, Actual on 1.62)
ETS2 1.60 – 100% Explored map with all DLC (July 2026, all map DLCs 99% on 1.62 before Iceland)
Promods 2.84 on ETS2 1.61 – 100% Explored Promods map (October 2026, including Vanilla, all DLC)
I do these discovery since 2017 and I discover whole map almost on every game versions including all expansions and reworks.

Hidden Roads Study – November, 4 2026
Since 1.62 is here we have to do a recap what’s going on with hidden (or secret) roads in ATS and ETS2.
European guide was not updated since June 2026 and it is still actual until Iceland DLC we expect on November 10. But I’ve updated American guide added South Dakota as well as fixed some missed roads. Also updated flag of Utah in the video.
Please note that Proximity Exploration feature released in 1.61 can help you to find most of the secret roads without any guides. You can turn on or off the feature but anyway it is the biggest change in the game on this topic since 2022, when hidden roads came as markable objects in version 1.44. For sure some roads are real secret and even with this feature you need to go around all roads to find the location of unmarked path. So for some time I will continue to update my guides.
The next big update will be I after Iceland in ETS2 and British Columbia in ATS.
If I find any new roads or you suggest one I will not update it instantly since I skip mid-tier guide videos because of low views on YouTube. The same issue affects 100% discovery guides and map combo content. I know there’s interest from my audience, but without YouTube helping push this type of content, it quickly gets buried.
You can always check the complete list of cities with hidden paths here: https://trucksim.top/y9t6. It probably won’t reveal the exact secret road locations, but it can help you figure out if you missed any areas.
ETS2 (updated 06.01.2026, actual on 1.62 with all map DLCs before Iceland, 114 roads so far)
ATS (updated 11.02.2026, actual on 1.62 with South Dakota DLC, 290 roads so far)

Map Combo Study 11.02.2026
We finished with map combo in games version 1.61 and getting ready for the new release as well as new DLCs. But until that we still have time to enjoy the long distance journey on Europe and America.
ETS2 1.61
Giga map combo I’ve finished last week for ETS2 1.61 took more time that I expected , and it has taken more time than I expected but it became a solid update with 74 maps. I reduced count of maps in the final setup to release it faster and maybe will do some corrections on it but not sure.
ATS 1.61
Bigger American combo is also actual and can be satisfy you until we are waiting for 1.62. While in Europe we will see Iceland and Coaches DLC this November, in ATS there is no significant changes of the map with new version.
Don’t forget about Beginner’s Guide which help new comers to dive to combos world. It will save you time, prevent recurring issues, and help you create a stable and enjoyable setup from the start.

ETS2 Coaches DLC will be released November 12
The wait is almost over. SCS has confirmed that the Coaches DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2 releases on November 12, 2026. Since our last roundup, SCS has shown new vehicle features, explained coach ownership and jobs, and revealed a third job type. Here’s everything that’s new.
July 17, 2026: New Vehicle Features
SCS showed the systems coaches have that trucks don’t:
- Destination display: a panel at the top of the windshield showing the final stop. It’s a removable accessory and visible from inside the cabin.
- Sun visors: coaches have big windshields, so the visors are split into left and right halves that you control independently, with animations and sounds.
- Rear-view camera: built into the dashboard, it replaces the navigation display automatically when you engage reverse. That should help a lot at tight bus stations.
- Interior lighting: ambient lighting in a colour of your choice, plus a main ceiling light you can switch on and off, useful when picking up passengers at night.
August 21, 2026: Vehicle Ownership and Job Schedule
- Buying a coach: coaches are sold through the Online Dealer and kept in their own garage, so they don’t take up your truck garage slots.
- Shared money: finances are shared between truck and coach modes. You can earn through Quick Jobs or regular truck jobs first, and loans are available if you want to start sooner.
- Customisation: chassis, engine, and transmission variants, plus seat upholstery and curtains, depending on the model. Some parts and accessories unlock through progression.
- Free roaming: an owned coach can go anywhere on the map and visit viewpoints, with fuel, fatigue, and other familiar systems working as they do with a truck.
- Contract Jobs: unlocked by owning a coach. You browse passenger services in nearby cities, drive to the station, confirm your line, and the game jumps to the scheduled departure. Many routes have multiple stops, and harder routes pay more money and experience.
October 2026: Scania Touring Gameplay Preview
The Scania Touring finally got its own gameplay video. It showed how driving style affects passenger reactions, with sharp turns and hard braking raising G-forces and drawing responses from passengers. It also featured passenger chatter behind you and the adjustable sun visor.
October 7, 2026: Tourist Jobs
A third job type for a more relaxed pace. You take passengers on a day out from a bus station to a landmark: natural scenery, city centers, or even industrial depots with guided tours. Some destinations have opening hours that affect arrival times. Whether the landmark is locally or globally known sets the trip length. At the end you get a viewpoint with a short cutscene, often with a short description of the place. The schedule is more leisurely than Contract Jobs.
November 1, 2026: Release Date and Trailer
SCS announced November 12 with an official trailer. The three launch coaches are the Scania Touring, Volvo 9700 DD, and MAN Lion’s Coach. The trailer highlights the G-force indicator, smooth driving, and the three job types: Quick Jobs for early money, Contract Jobs with your own coach, and Tourist Jobs. SCS also says Coaches will keep growing after launch, with more licensed coaches, customization options, and features.
Updated “What We Know”
- Release date: November 12, 2026
- Launch coaches: Scania Touring, MAN Lion’s Coach, Volvo 9700 DD
- Jobs: Quick Jobs, Contract Jobs (own coach required), Tourist Jobs
- Ownership: Online Dealer purchase, separate garage, loans, progression-unlocked parts
- After launch: more coaches, customisation, and features planned
Iceland releases two days earlier, on November 10, so it’s a busy week for ETS2.
Iceland DLC for ETS2 is coming in about 2 weeks
- The Iceland DLC launches on November 10, 2026, announced alongside a new trailer in SCS’s Steam announcement. That’s about two weeks from now and right after 1.62 hits stable.
- The map has 14 cities and settlements, including Reykjavík and Akureyri, connected by the Ring Road.
- Landmarks include Jökulsárlón, Goðafoss, Gullfoss, Seljalandsfoss, Víkurfjara, Geysir and Þingvellir.
- Some routes cross narrow single-lane bridges where you have to give way to oncoming traffic.
- Freight goes to custom-made farms, quarries and a silica factory in Húsavík.
- The Northern Lights can appear under the right conditions, and daylight hours follow Iceland’s real-world timing.
SCS Software has confirmed that the Iceland DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2 launches on November 10, 2026, just after the 1.62 update. After more than a year of previews, here’s the full picture.
What’s in the box: 14 cities and settlements, including Reykjavík and Akureyri, linked by the Ring Road. Expect famous stops like Jökulsárlón, Goðafoss, Gullfoss, Seljalandsfoss, Geysir and Þingvellir, plus narrow single-lane bridges where you yield to oncoming traffic.
New work: custom farms, quarries and a silica factory in Húsavík, along with Keflavík’s fishing-town depots.
Atmosphere: the Northern Lights can show up in the sky, and daylight hours follow the real Icelandic calendar.
How we got here: announced June 2025, followed by previews of churches, the Ring Road, coastline, Keflavík, Akureyri, depots, fjords, scenic viewpoints and a first gameplay drive from Seyðisfjörður to Goðafoss.
Leaked Map:
Cities visible in the photo
- West and Westfjords: Ísafjörður, Patreksfjörður, Hólmavík, Ólafsvík, Borgarnes
- Southwest: Keflavík, Reykjavík, Selfoss
- North: Blönduós, Akureyri, Húsavík, Þórshöfn
- East and southeast: Egilsstaðir, Höfn
What else the map shows
- Route 1 (the Ring Road) runs around the whole island. The map also has secondary roads such as 30 to 41 in the southwest, 54 to 62 in the west and Westfjords, 85 in the northeast, and 92 and 93 in the east.
- Anchor icons mark ports or ferry points near Patreksfjörður, Ólafsvík and the south coast near Selfoss.
- Camera icons are scattered along the coast and the Ring Road. Together with the “Tourist Jobs” tab at the bottom, they look like sightseeing and viewpoint spots.
- There are fuel stations and service points in nearly every town, plus a few stops along the quieter southeast stretch toward Höfn.
- The Westfjords are a maze of fjord roads, which matches the “fjords define how roads are built” angle from SCS’s fjords preview.
- The Highlands in the center are empty, so the map sticks to the coastal and Ring Road network.
