Euro Truck Simulator 2

Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2) is a highly acclaimed truck simulation game developed and published by SCS Software. Released in late 2012, it has become a staple in the simulation genre, allowing players to drive various licensed trucks across a scale rendition of Europe, delivering cargo and building their own logistics company. The game is celebrated for its realism, attention to detail, and a vast array of expansion packs that have continuously added new territories and features over more than a decade.

The brand originated in Prague, Czech Republic, where SCS Software was founded. Unlike many major gaming titles that are eventually acquired by large multinational corporations, SCS Software has remained a fiercely independent developer and publisher. This independence has allowed them to maintain a close relationship with their community and focus on long-term support for their titles. The development, digital manufacturing, and distribution management all remain centered in their Czech headquarters.

As of 2024 and looking toward 2026, SCS Software remains the ultimate owner of the Euro Truck Simulator intellectual property. The company is a private entity owned by its founders, most notably Pavel Šebor. Their business model relies on direct digital distribution through platforms like Steam, ensuring that the brand's creative direction and financial ownership stay localized within the Czech Republic without external corporate subsidiary structures.
