‘Truck Simulator’ Games Event Lets Players Deliver COVID-19 Vaccines

While the world continues to endure the impact of COVID-19, the video game developer of American Truck Simulator: Colorado wanted to reflect some of the good news that’s happening. SCS Software wanted to share the hope of the CVOID-19 vaccines with its players in American Truck Simulator’s latest event.

As announced this week, SCS will be hosting an event in American Truck Simulator: Colorado called Hauling Hope. In this event, players will be driving trucks containing the COVID-19 vaccines to people in need. The developer is launching this event to recognize the efforts of the real-life drivers and support crews who are delivering the vaccines in the world. American Truck Simulator’s Hauling Hope event will conclude on February 7.

This would be the game’s second event centered on acknowledging the drivers and support crews involved in COVID-19 relief efforts during the pandemic. Previously, SCS hosted an event in March last year and invited the game’s players to engage in the Truck At Home event. In the event, players drove trucks with needed financial support and supplies to people working on the front lines of the pandemic. The player community’s response was overwhelmingly positive, which was more than SCS had anticipated.

That positivity served as the inspiration for the current Hauling Hope event going on in the game about delivering COVID-19 relief aid. This time, players will be delivering the precious yet fragile cargo in trucks to the select locations but they must reach them undamaged. However, this is still part of a game so there are rules that players will need to follow while participating.

Players can participate in the event by using what’s called External Contracts with either Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator or both. The goal is for players to make a minimum of 7 undamaged cargo deliveries of the COVID-19 vaccines across any trucking territories. As part of the event, the cargo possesses a zero-damage tolerance, and players need a level 1 Fragile Cargo skill to carry any of it.

Players will be rewarded with a World of Trucks achievement and the Hope Trucker insignia cabin item that players can hang inside their trucks. Ultimately, SCS Software’s goal for the Hauling Hope event is to not only make more American Truck Simulator content but to spread some hope to people in these hard times, while encouraging players to stay safe, healthy, and optimistic. Further showing video games having a positive effect on people during the pandemic.

American Truck Simulator: Colorado is available now for PC.
