Today, we're excited to share our first blog post focusing on one of the many cities which will be found in our upcoming [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2780810/Euro_Truck_Simulator_2__Nordic_Horizons/]Nordic Horizons DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2[/url]. Let's make the journey to our first destination in Northern Finland!

Best known as the official hometown of Santa Claus, this northern city attracts visitors from all around the world, with its unique blend of wilderness and modern comforts. As one of the larger cities in Finland, there is plenty to explore and discover as a visiting truck driver.

As you approach the city from the North-East, you'll discover the crossing of two majestic rivers – The Ounasjoki River and Kemijoki River. Be sure to enjoy the view as you travel past them.

Truckers will of course be able to enjoy seeing both of these, and more, on their travels through the city!

Also known as the nightless night or polar day, the midnight sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs in locations north of the Arctic Circle. Simply put, the sun never sets between the months of June and July, as the earth is rotating at a tilted axis relative to the sun, and during summer, the North Pole is angled towards it! This has also been replicated in this DLC, so you'll experience it for yourself, virtually, no matter where in the (real) world you are.

We look forward to sharing more on unique industries found in this DLC in the future.
