Free 1.57 Update — New Special Transport Cargoes Arrive
Big announcement: owners of the Special Transport DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2 will receive a complimentary content update in the upcoming 1.57 patch. Sharpen your steering — we’ve added several oversized, demanding loads that will push your piloting and precision to the limit.
Wind Turbine Blade
This imposing 30-metre wind turbine blade is transported on a purpose-built blade hauler: a 4-axle, fully steerable chassis engineered to tame tight corners and narrow finishes. The trailer itself weighs 20,820 kg and the blade adds another 5,500 kg — a combination that rewards steady nerves and expert manoeuvring. Only the most meticulous drivers will deliver this load without incident.
Underground Loader
Built for rugged mine work, this underground loader travels on a custom 6-axle low loader with steerable axles to help navigate confined roads. The trailer measures 25 metres and weighs 35,000 kg; the loader itself is 54,500 kg (rising to 72,000 kg when loaded). It’s one of the heftiest Special Transport contracts in the game and demands careful planning and exacting control.
These new freight types also introduce fresh routes. The Wind Turbine Blade contract will appear from Rostock to Berlin in Germany, and — via the forthcoming Nordic Horizons DLC — from Jyväskylä to Vaasa. Both take you from the manufacturer directly to turbine construction sites; the German leg features a particularly tight final approach that will test your parking and alignment skills.
The Underground Loader contract is available from Dortmund to Hannover, and in Nordic Horizons from Narvik to Kiruna — moving the machine from a service depot straight into an underground mine. Expect narrow passages, careful escort routing and challenging delivery zones.
We can’t wait to see how you tackle these oversized contracts in the 1.57 update. Keep an eye on our blog and social channels for further details on what’s included in the patch — and until then, safe hauling.
