The 1.62 update for Euro Truck Simulator 2 is out of open beta and live for everyone on Steam as of November 5, 2026, SCS Software announced. It adds three new DAF XG+ editions, replaces the truck garages across the whole map, and brings the studio’s improved interior materials to another truck.
What 1.62 Adds
- DAF XG+ Emerald, Sapphire and 30 Years in Czechia Editions. The Emerald and Sapphire Editions come with green and blue paint jobs, exclusive exterior accessories and their own interiors. The third celebrates three decades of DAF in the Czech Republic, with an anniversary design and dedicated upholstery and stitching.
- New garages everywhere. New truck garage models replace the old ones across the base map and every map DLC, with more detailed interiors and exteriors. SCS says it worked to keep their performance cost in line with the older models.
- Improved Material System for the Iveco S-Way. The S-Way is the latest interior to get the upgraded materials, with better lighting and a focus on how different surfaces react to light.
- Goodyear Tyres Pack update. Its paint jobs now carry Goodyear’s current logo and slightly adjusted colors.
- A longer Escape station. The in-game radio’s stream-safe station drops tracks that were causing copyright problems and adds 11 new songs, so content creators get a longer playlist that is safe to broadcast.
SCS ran 1.62 as an open beta from October 22 and thanked the players who reported issues on its forum before the full release.
What This Means for Players
If you drive with mods, check that each one lists 1.62 support before you load your profile: game updates can break mods until their authors catch up. Our list of the 100 best Euro Truck Simulator 2 mods links each mod’s page, which is where authors post their update status.
Two paid expansions follow later this month. The Iceland DLC arrives on November 10, and SCS showed off its version of Reykjavik in a separate post on November 4. The Coaches DLC, with its passenger jobs, follows on November 12.
