Illinois DLC Release Date Announcement

The Illinois DLC release date has been announced: May 14, 2026! SCS Software has announced the release date for the Illinois DLC on their social media channels, including YouTube.

I don’t yet know if I’ll get an early release copy yet, but if I do, I will share some Illinois driving with you as soon as possible. I can’t wait to drive in the Illinois DLC as I spent so much time driving all over Illinois during my truck driving career! I hope you’ll ride along with me around Illinois.

You can see some of the images from SCS’ announcement blog post below, as well as their trailer video.

If you’d like to see some of the driving I did in Illinois from My Over-The-Road Trucking Adventure, check out this playlist from my channel’s archives.

The first video in this playlist includes picking up a load at the underground depot near Quincy, IL that is featured in the new Illinois DLC and delivering that load to the underground depot in Springfield, MO that is featured in the Missouri DLC!
