The SCS Software blog and this post on Steam have details on upcoming Greece DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2, which is listed on Steam with a "to be announced" release window. As the title states, this will give the chance to drive your greasy truck to Greece and soak up some Mediterranean sunshine as you make pickups and deliveries. You might be able to leave your Speedo at home, however, as instead of unspoiled beaches, the update highlights a Cement Plant in Thessaloniki that will be an important part of this route. The post includes screenshots and some concrete details:

Located in the northern area of Thessaloniki, the second largest city in Greece, you'll find a pretty sizeable Cement Plant! Built and established in 1962, the plant supports 300+ direct and indirect jobs for the local economy and beyond. Its virtual creation in the Greece DLC has been built by our talented teams and features custom Landmark models, a detailed layout, and a recreation of one of the largest-scaled artistic mural projects in Europe, which spans across many of the buildings in the plant.

This impressive industry can be seen from across the city, including from the highway; it simply cannot be missed! You can be sure to find plenty of job contracts available to and from this plant, as it is one of the leading producers of cement in the country.

Hey Kotaku! If you're going to post answers to the New York Times Connections game every day, could you at least remove the spoilers from the headlines? You're not the only games site going for the low-hanging fruit of helping people cheat the Times' various puzzles, but other sites have the courtesy of not forcing answers on you before getting the clicks they are baiting. Please follow suit. Kthxbye.
