With the upcoming 1.51 update for both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, one of the first and most prominent changes players will encounter is a complete redesign of the Title Screen.

Whilst keeping in line with our recent user interface rework, we wanted a design which is easy to navigate and understand for all players. First and foremost, one of the main difference you'll notice about the new Title Screen is the focus on a truck in the centre of the screen.

On the left side, you'll find the menu which allows easy access to the more important features of the game, such as Options, your Profile Manager, or other sub-menus such as the DLC Browser or Mod Manager which are now located under the 'Extras' part of the menu. You will also find the current version of the game displayed in the bottom left corner. If an update is available for the game, text above the version of the game will appear to notify you of that.

On the right side of the menu, you can find a widget featuring your currently selected profile and current trucker level. Hovering over this widget allows you quick glance at your profile statistics. In some cases, additional widgets may appear on the right side, for example, if your current profile is not connected to World of Trucks or if you are using a 'Open Beta' version of the game. 

On the bottom right, you'll find our carousel of small banners, which gives players quick and easy access to the latest news from our official blog and features graphics presenting our newest releases.

Functionally, we have also made navigation more comfortable with a gamepad or a steering wheel, requiring less time reaching for a keyboard from the moment you launch ETS2 or ATS. This design also leaves us space to make tweaks and changes where needed, as-well as make additions in the future.

We hope you that enjoy this new look and overhaul of the Title Screen in the upcoming 1.51 update. Be sure to keep an eye our on our social media channels (X, Instagram, Facebook) for more news on other changes and additions found in this update. Until then, keep on truckin'!

ETS 2's long-awaited 1.51 update has finally met us and has added a whole new atmosphere to the game. I recently had the chance to try it out and I must say that the stylish design and ease of use that comes with this version seem to increase interest in the game even more.

 

With the 1.51 update, the design changes made to the menus are not only visually pleasing, but also make the game much more user-friendly. It's a great detail to have everything at your fingertips, especially when you're on long journeys. The fluidity of the controls and the improvements in in-game transitions are also remarkable.

 

With this version, you feel that the gameplay has become smoother. Especially if you're on long journeys like me, you'll enjoy these small but important improvements even better.

 

Those who have tried 1.51, what were your favorite features? Also, are there any points that you still find lacking or expect more improvements? I'm looking forward to your comments!
