European Truck Racing Championship promises a new experience for fans of racing games as well as the large number of trucking simulation fans.

Taming an overpowered, 5-ton monster is entirely different than driving a race car or a motorcycle. It’s an unprecedented challenge that will require some racing game expertise.

In this game, a FIA TRC race consists of 12 trucks on a circuit, facing off in four sprints of 45 km each, with special passing techniques, physics and inertia distinct from any other type of vehicle, special penalties, and a reservoir of 200 litres of water that must be managed manually to cool your brakes, avoid overheating, and finish the race.

In FIA European Truck Racing Championship, players can take the wheel of 45 official trucks from top manufacturers, including Volvo, MAN, Freightliner, Western Star and many others! They can test their driving skills on all 8 faithfully recreated circuits of the ETRC, as well as on iconic circuits such as Laguna Seca, the COTA and Fuji Speedway. All 20 teams and championship drivers are also included in the game.

For several years, the championship has grown quickly and draws a larger and larger crowd every year. The amazingly spectacular races have ignited a growing passion for the discipline, and the media gives it wide visibility. The confrontations between these mechanical behemoths take place across the greatest circuits in Europe such as Le Mans, the Nürbürgring, Misano and the Hungaroring.


In the video you will be plunged right into the middle of a FIA ETRC race where 5-tonne trucks go head to head in four 45km races. In FIA European Truck Racing Championship, the simulation pushes the limits of what's possible, and everything has been designed to guarantee players all the thrills of racing in these spectacular races. With dynamic weather, different physics and inertia for each vehicle, and manual management of brakes and water cooling, everything has been included to ensure players experience the ultimate challenge.

With 5 single-player and 5 multiplayer modes, FIA European Truck Racing Championship is a realistic simulation and an exciting new option for fans of racing games.

European Truck Racing Championship, the official racing simulation of the ETRC, developed using the KT Engine, a specialized game engine for creating racing simulations (WRC, TT Isle of Man, V-Rally).

FIA European Truck Racing Championship will be available for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch on July 18, 2019.
