Scania Truck Driving Simulator is joining the original Euro Truck Simulator and Bus Driver on Mac App Store. Finally Apple Mac players have a chance to play the game, too. Our focus is 100% now on porting Euro Truck Simulator 2 to Mac OS.
After almost three years of development, we have just released ETS2 both in retail and digital editions across Europe. Get the demo from the official website at www.eurotruckismulator2.com!

The game is due to start appearing in retail stores across Europe later this week, and we are happy to announce availability of the Trucks & Trailers demo. You can find more info on the official Trucks & Trailers website.
