Antwerp Overhaul: Project Benelux

We are delighted to share a detailed preview of Antwerp, one of Belgium’s most storied and culturally diverse cities, currently being revitalized as part of the Project Benelux Rework. Famed for its sprawling maritime gateway and rich historical legacy, Antwerp is set to make its highly anticipated debut in Euro Truck Simulator 2. This expansion introduces a wealth of new environments, meticulously crafted details, and a truly authentic European driving experience.

Antwerp Cityscape

Perched along the majestic banks of the Scheldt, Antwerp’s unique character greets drivers the moment they approach the riverport. This bustling waterfront captures the relentless energy of international trade, providing a scenic yet industrious gateway into the city. Here, players will navigate through a landscape where contemporary infrastructure meets traditional brick architecture.



Venturing deeper into the urban core, truckers will pass the Kipdorp site, currently the location of the most significant archaeological excavations Antwerp has seen in recent history. This area offers a fascinating glimpse into the city’s past, with exposed ancient foundations standing in contrast to the modern world. Nearby, the striking Parkbrug bridge spans the horizon; its avant-garde white steel structure provides a moment of architectural grace and a panoramic view of the city’s skyline.



The journey continues past the central bus station, a vital transit hub where the city’s trams and buses intersect. Embracing the local culture, drivers will also encounter the renowned chocolate museum—a tribute to Belgium’s world-famous confectionery heritage. This landmark serves as a sweet reminder of the traditions that make this region so iconic for travelers and locals alike.



As you navigate the streets, the atmosphere shifts at the Chinatown Gate, a vibrant and ornate entrance to one of the city’s most colorful districts. Shortly after, the magnificent Antwerp Centraal Station appears. Often referred to as the “Railway Cathedral,” this architectural masterpiece has been faithfully recreated to capture the awe-inspiring presence it holds in the real world.



No trip to Antwerp would be complete without visiting its world-renowned harbor. Heading north from the city center, players will enter the massive port complex through a high-fidelity entrance that reflects its immense scale. The route leads into the industrial heartland, featuring specialized chemical depots and expansive logistics zones waiting to be explored.


Antwerp is a city defined by its contrasts—where historical landmarks coexist with industrial giants. Our rework aims to capture this duality, offering players a rich tapestry of experiences, from navigating narrow urban corridors to hauling cargo through one of Europe’s most vital ports.
