Guide How to Download and Setup Promods 2.80
New Promods 2.80 is major release so it contains not only compatibility but also integration with new map DLC Nordic Horizons and refreshed Scandinavia. You can enjoy new version on the latest ETS2 1.57 but now all map DLC are required. In the guide below as always you will find step by step instruction, but please watch carefully and don’t ask about archives on the Youtube.
Nordic Horizons DLC will come soon, possible challenges
Promods 2.80 out now
Cruising Nordic Horizons Event is still live
The World of Trucks event – Cruising Nordic Horizons started with new DLC for ETS2 and if you’re still not joining – it is the chance to discover nice cities, roads and landscapes of Northern Europe and get some in-game perks like truck skit or cabin decorations. Rules of the event is pretty clear if you ever attended to SCS events – bring cargo with External contracts for or from cities of the new DLC.
Me personally already finished my goals as well as Community – goal reached couple days before. But you have time until February 1st of 2026.
Cruising Louisiana event is still goes on
As always with the new DLC for American Truck Simulator we get World of Trucks event and this time it’s #CruisingLouisiana – typical but still attractive since we can discover new state and get another trophy on ours Wotr page.
Rules and rewards are pretty equal as for other “Cruising” events so if if you played it once just apply to the new names or read details in SCS Blog.
Christmas 2025 World of Trucks Event
Traditionally in December we get a new event from SCS Software and as last couple years we will do deliveries to Winterland – fictional country with frosty roads, snowing and magic locations. #WovenWondersOfWinterland in 2025 getting a massive update – now in mystical area we have AI traffic so hauls will not look like we are the only truck in this area.
Details, rules and rewards as always explained on SCS Blog. As always I wish you happy trucking. Drive save on frosty roads.
Illinois the first map DLC in 2026
Upcoming expansion for American Truck Simulator of Illinois State is probably will the first map DLC in 2026, in Spring. Illinois is important part of Midwest and American roads system. We have numerous teasers from SCS media channels and I collected all available footages for this moment. It is all work in progress for now and not all details of new map DLC are clear but at least we know that following cities will be presented: Bloomington, Champaign, Chicago, Effingham, East St. Louis, Marion, Moline, Peoria, Rockford, Springfield, Quincy.
After Illinois we will see another state DLC – North Dakota and the next step hopefully will be in Canadian British Columbia expansion.
Guide How to Download and Setup Promods 2.77
New Promods 2.77 is mostly compatibility release and it doesn’t friendly to new map DLC Nordic Horizons, overlap it and even if you purchased it you will see Promods content instead of vanilla. But if you are ready for this trade off or still have no Nordic Expansion you can enjoy new version on the latest ETS2 1.57. In the guide below as always you will find step by step instruction, but please watch carefully and don’t ask about archives on the Youtube.
