Witches of Brackenreach: a new event for ETS2 and ATS .
Every Halloween, SCS Software proves that even the world of truck simulators can be truly mystical. The players are already used to seasonal events, but this year promises to be special.
The focus is on the grand event «Witches of Brackenreach», in which the reality of road maps interweaves with magic and cargo trailers become conductors between worlds.
The developers have created a whole mythology, woven into the usual mechanics of transport. Behind the glimmering portals lurks the mysterious kingdom of Brackenrich, where, according to legend, three witches of elements rule. From now on, every delivery turns into a journey through the misty swamps, enchanted forests and ancient ruins leading to Brackenhelm Castle.
Higher than ever before
As before, the event has two components: a personal and a collective goal. But this time the scale amazes the imagination. You’re going to help the community reach a staggering 1.5 million deliveries. This figure is symbolic, it reflects not only the ambitions of SCS Software, but also the power of a unified community that year after year turns the truck simulator into a living, breathing space.
There are 15 deliveries to complete in a personal mission, of which at least three must start at Brakenhelm Castle and three must end there. However, despite the simplicity of the formula, implementation will require attention to ensure that the tasks are counted, it is necessary to transport special Halloween goods: treats, costumes, herbs and spices, as well as handicrafts.
In return for the hard work of drivers, the world will respond with rewards. After completing a personal objective, the player receives an achievement at World of Trucks and an exclusive item in the form of an enchanted witch’s compass that can be placed in the truck cab.
Community spirit
But the truly magical moment will be the achievement of a collective goal. If the community manages to overcome the one and a half million deliveries, all participants who have completed personal tasks will receive a special gift - a pendant in the form of a black cat, a symbol of luck, mysticism and night roads. In the SCS Software tradition, it is an element that creates a sense of community and reminds us that behind the wheel of every truck sits a part of a huge community.
For the first time in the history of such events, a secret quest called Witch’s House Hunt has been added to the game. Finding it in the depths of Brackenreach, opens a new accessory - Spooky Horn, a frightening and fascinating signal that can be used to decorate the cabin.
Journey through the portals: visual magic of Brackenreach
When the player takes a task leading to Brakenhelm Castle, a portal marked with a spiral appears on the map. Once crossed it and the usual landscapes are replaced by a enchanted valley.
This is the place where you feel what fans love about ETS2 and ATS. The developers manage to add magic elements and do not destroy the immersion in the usual simulator, which is worthy of respect. Driving remains as accurate and demanding, but the context of the events greatly affects each trip and turns it into a story adventure.
Developer engagement
To make the holiday atmosphere more lively, the SCS team will conduct a special live broadcast. In it, the developers will discuss the process of creating the event and share behind-the-scenes stories about how Brackenreach's world was born, where the three witches' ideas came from, and why this particular topic became central.
Stream will run on October 21, and it will be available to watch on Twitch, YouTube and Facebook.
More details about this event is told in the official blog of developers, there are also instructions Brackenreach.
