For many years, Euro Truck Simulator 2 has been a favorite among PC players, and now it is finally coming to consoles. Developed by SCS Software, the popular simulation game will no longer be exclusive to PC — it will also reach PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S users. Although the console versions are still in the announcement stage, their appearance on store pages with the label “coming soon” shows that the release is not far away.
