Hello truckers!
It's been a few weeks since we launched Alaskan Road Truckers, and we decided to take a moment and look back at the road behind us and give you all a sneak peek at the road in front.
We've come a long way already, and we're not stopping here. In case you've missed some of our updates or want to know what we're working on right now - here we go!

[h3]Trucking Legends[/h3]

Our most recent update was titled [b][url=https://steamcommunity.com/games/849100/announcements/detail/3906371681114520760]Trucking Legends[/url][/b]. It launched last week and changed up some of the ways players can experience the game.
In addition to the standard mode, players are now able to select Casual and Legend options when starting a new game. These tweak the difficulty of the core Alaskan Road Trucker experience. Casual mode makes the game a little easier, with resources being consumed less quickly and weather being easier to manage. Legend mode, however, tests your trucking skills to the limit.
With harder missions, a tougher Winter start, and punishing weather, if you want to prove yourself out there in the harsh Alaskan Wilderness, this is the mode for you.
[h3]Patches, Patches, Patches![/h3]

Of course, we've not just added new content to the game. There's been a ton of patches released since launch all aimed at fixing and improving the issues that matter to you - our players. Your feedback and reports have helped us aim our efforts in the right direction, and we've come a long way.
That doesn't mean we're satisfied and sitting on our laurels. We are continually refining Alaskan Road Truckers, working on areas such as AI, controller issues, game-feel, optimization, and game balance. In the coming weeks and months you'll see many updates from us - all aimed at improving the core game experience.
[h2][b]Where We're Heading[/b][/h2]
[h3]Fancy Trucks and Looks[/h3]
One thing we know is important is making your truck feel like it's yours. We've already released some new cosmetic options for trucks and of course, there's the [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2600800/Alaskan_Road_Truckers_Mother_Truckers_Edition/]Mother Truckers Edition DLC[/url] but we're also looking at making more.
Being a badass is part of the trucker experience and our next set of cosmetics will reflect that, with a rough 'n' ready look that'll show off your rugged style in spades.
[h3]Ice Roads are Coming[/h3]

The big update that we're focusing on right now will add more depth to the game, as well as more challenge. We spoke about it before in our [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/849100/view/5779865497754063927?l=english]Roadmap [/url]but we're getting closer and closer to unveiling the Ice Roads Expansion for Alaskan Road Truckers.
This expansion will put you and your truck on the edge of danger as you fight for survival against the harshest of elements. Only the toughest, bravest, and most skilled truckers will be able to succeed in these brand-new missions. With all new looks, routes, and terrain to conquer - this will take Alaskan Road Truckers to the next level.
[h3]And more...[/h3]
Our plans don't end there, we're working on more content, more ideas, and more everything. From launching on console to further expansions and DLC, we've got big plans, and we can't wait to take you along for the ride!
