Introducing
Dear #BestCommunityEver, you may have caught a glimpse of the following announcement at this year’s edition of Czech & Slovak Games Week, but now it is time to make it official. So, without further ado, let us show you the next step in the journey across the US states Introducing Oklahoma for American Truck Simulator
ENVIRONMENT
Water Bodies
From the meandering currents of its rivers to the tranquil shores of its lakes, Oklahoma is home to a variety of different water bodies large and small. Long before roads existed, both lakes and rivers were used as a way to navigate across America. Today, they have become popular attraction for both locals and visitors to enjoy recreational activities and admire their natural beauty.
ENVIRONMENT
Beavers Bend State Park & Gloss Mountain State Park
While Oklahoma is missing national parks, the state is home to several state parks and recreation areas that showcase the local natural beauty. In the upcoming map expansion, you will have a chance to venture to two wonderful state parks, and in this blog article, we’ll tell you a little bit about them while throwing some amazing screenshots into the mix!
INDUSTRY
New Industries
The state of Oklahoma is home to a variety of industries, and today we are happy to share with you previews and information on some of the new and unique depots that you'll be able to deliver to in our upcoming Oklahoma DLC for American Truck Simulator. Please mind, due to the development still being in the early stages, the following screenshots are not from a completed map as the areas are still a work-in-progress.
INDUSTRY
Agriculture
As you already may have guessed from our previous articles, Oklahoma is a major agricultural state in the United States. Known as the "breadbasket of America," the Sooner State is a top producer of a variety of crops and livestock, contributing significantly to the state's economy and the nation's food supply.
INDUSTRY
Industry & Brands
Back in January, we posted a blog sharing some details on some of the Industries that will be featured in our upcoming Oklahoma DLC for American Truck Simulator. Since then, our team has completed a considerable amount of work on the depots and placed them into the world, which we are happy to share with you today!
INDUSTRY
New Cargoes to Haul
As you may already be aware, each new DLC for American Truck Simulator not only expands the in-game world but also introduces a range of exciting additions to the game. Among these additions are new cargoes that you can transport to and from the newly added state. With the Oklahoma DLC, you'll have numerous exciting opportunities to explore and work for a variety of new industries for which our teams have also designed a few new and fitting cargoes.
CITIES
Cities and Settlements #1
A trucker’s journey consists of more than complex highways or wonderful nature, which is why there’s always the need to include numerous detailed cities and settlements in every additional expansion of American Truck Simulator to perfectly capture the whole "picture" of the local land. The upcoming Oklahoma DLC will be no exception, so today we will show you four of the cities that are arriving in the game with the Sooner State.
CITIES
Cities and Settlements #2
It's time for Part 2 of showcasing some of the Cities & Settlements that will be featured in our Oklahoma DLC for American Truck Simulator. Previously, we highlighted the cities of Guymon, Enid, Lawton and Idabel. Today we are happy to share with you 4 more cities and several settlements.
CITIES
Tulsa
One of the cities you will be able to explore in the upcoming Oklahoma DLC for American Truck Simulator is the city of Tulsa, which is located in the northeastern part of Oklahoma. Due to its location, the city is a convenient hub for transportation and commerce, and there will be plenty of reasons to pay it a visit on your journey across the new state.
CITIES
Oklahoma City
Welcome to Oklahoma City, the capital of the state! Home to over 650,000 people, this bustling metropolis serves as a political, economic, and cultural center. In our upcoming Oklahoma DLC for American Truck Simulator, our team has recreated this city, along with many of its famous landmarks, buildings and industries.
ROAD NETWORK
Truck Stops
With the road network of American Truck Simulator growing larger and larger every year, the need for rest breaks as you travel across the mighty USA becomes a regular occurrence. Whilst some might like to find a small layby or other area to stop in, most players have found that Truck Stops are there go to when on a long haul!
ROAD NETWORK
Road Network
Getting from point A to point B, isn't as simple as it once was. Road networks have changed drastically over the past few decades with the ever increasing demand for more capacity and routes for the growing population. Evidence of this can be found across the highways of the USA, as well as in our upcoming Oklahoma DLC for American Truck Simulator.
ROAD NETWORK
Ports of Entry & Weigh Stations
There's no better feeling than hitting the road and traveling to a U.S. State you've never been to; but before you get going, there are a few rules you need to follow. Each state has its own regulations and laws for truck drivers and Oklahoma is no exception.
ROAD NETWORK
Turnpike Tolls
Roads that charge tolls have historically been found in Oklahoma since 1916, which is the earliest known toll road recorded in the state. Today, turnpike tolls are an important source of highway funding in many states in the US, benefiting the local economy, road maintenance and cleanliness.

EXPANSION DESCRIPTION
From the grand American highways running through the hills of dusk-red rock to leading cities bustling with culture, landmarks, and businesses. Oklahoma is a diverse state shaped by its history and industries.
Located in the south of the country, "The Sooner State" generally tends to have a reputation of being a rather arid place, however, it’s much better to avoid judging this book by its cover. The state is home to wonderful national parks, several natural marvels, and historical places full of mysteries and legends. But those who are looking for something more practical instead will find their purpose as well since the local road network and a strong economy driven by natural gas and oil production will keep every trucker properly busy.
