Welcome one and all, to another Happy Hauloween World of Trucks event! The fun will start tomorrow, Tuesday 24th October...

So once again let’s grab our keys
    To start our rigs. And, if you please,
        Be sure to wear your jazzy shoes
            To dance a jig of spooky blues.
                Because tonight’s a special ball,
                    With bone and skull, and laughter all!
                        And, don’t forget to wear a hat,
                            And OH, be careful of the cat.
                                It might just cross your path tonight
                                    To grab a yummy nibble-bite.

                                        For Hauloween is in the air,
                                            And there’s no time to flee nor dare
                                                To hide away from all the treats
                                                    That wait for you, but not to eat,
                                                        NO, they must be hauled, delivered quick,
                                                            Then parked away, now that’s the trick!

We are once again inviting you, our #BestCommunityEver, to join us in celebrating Halloween by delivering more delicious Halloween Treats across all trucking territories – this time we are pushing for 1,000,000 deliveries in total! Our incredibly creative artists have come up with a brand new, wonderfully spooky yet jazzy, Halloween themed trailer that will carry your special event cargo.

Your #HappyHauloween also brings you a cool new desktop theme that will match our celebrations for the event duration – we really hope you like it!

Your personal goal is to complete 13 deliveries of our Halloween Treats cargo, and there are some fantastic event specific rewards to be had, including a World of Trucks Achievement. All jobs for the event will be 100Km each (62.1 mile) or more, and don't forget to check out the rules.

Rules

Using External Contracts, with a World of Trucks-connected profile in Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator or both, the community goal is to achieve 1,000,000 deliveries of Halloween Treats cargo, from any city in any trucking territory.

When a player completes 13 deliveries of Halloween Treats cargo across any trucking territories in either game, it will complete their personal goal.

Rewards

• Personal: Players that complete 13 or more deliveries of Halloween Treats cargo will gain a unique World of Trucks Achievement as well as cute, and purrfectly fluffy, Count Catula Plush cabin item as a Steam inventory item for Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator.

• Community: When the community goal of achieving 1,000,000 deliveries of Halloween Treats cargo from any city is met and if the player has also achieved their personal goal, then they will receive a creepy, but cuddly, Spooky Spider hanging toy as a Steam inventory item for their cabin.

Note: In order to qualify for any community reward, you must complete at least your personal goal in Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator or both. Each reward will be a Steam inventory item for both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator. Once completed, claim your reward in the Events page on your World of Trucks profile.

The event will be concluded on Tuesday the 14th of November at 23:59 UTC.

This year’s event is going to be full of spooky fun, for both American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2, with deliveries counted in both games. You can even take part in the celebrations across both sides of the Atlantic, so we look forward to seeing all your pics on our Facebook ATS / ETS2, X (formerly Twitter), and Instagram profiles and we will share our favourite ones.

A little over three weeks ago we invited all of you to join the special spooky festivities by taking part in our Happy Hauloween World of Trucks event. During this time, players were able to earn special rewards for completing a personal and community goal while hauling the unique Halloween Treats all over the in-game world.

As this was our first Halloween event, we were curious to know what the feedback will be, along with how much effort would the #BestCommunityEver be able to put into something fresh like this. Now, after everything is "said and done", we have to express our gratitude for the positive response that you’ve shown us. This view by most all of you was reflected in the amazing final stats that we would like to share with you. Great job everyone and thank you all for participating!

We truly hope you are enjoying the Swinging Bat dashboard toy and Pumpkin Head hanging toy rewards. Even though Halloween itself is an extremely time-limited holiday, you can now drive across ETS2 and ATS with these accessories in your interior all year long! 

Many of you also took to our social media channels to share with us photos and videos of your journeys and participation. We really enjoyed looking at them all and sharing some of them on our public profiles and our internal channels. It brings a lot of joy to our teams to see how much you enjoy these World of Trucks events.

Don’t worry, our plan is to keep bringing a Halloween event for the players in the upcoming years as well. But, that being said, it is time to look to the near future, so keep an eye out on our social media (Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok), to not miss any potential announcement of what is soon to come.

one final jump scare: BOO!

Happy Hauloween, Happy Hauloween,
    Happy happy...stop!
        And so it has been said, I’m told,
            That there are some of you so bold
                To speak of one point four six woes
                    For goodness sake, we did not knows
                        That there might be, oh, such a clash!
                            Oh my, oh wow, now we must dash
                                To fix this all and do it fast
                            Extend our Hauloween to last
                        Until such time that you’re all done
                    With testing of our beta one
                Point four six, yes! That is the feat,
            Then hauling treats for all to eat!
        It’s cool, it's great, and all will see
    What fun that Hauloween can be!

To our #BestCommunityEver, we would like to offer our sincere apologies if we caused any concerns to those who are currently testing our Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator 1.46 Open Beta. We now realise that for many of you, reverting back to your 1.45 game saves in order to take part in our Happy Hauloween event was far from a desirable solution and, moreover, was an avoidable consequence that should not have happened. In this way, we intend to extend the event well past the 1.46 Open Beta testing closure date, so that everyone will be able to continue to take part in the event using 1.46 also.

The event will conclude on Monday the 14th of November at 23:59 UTC.

Thank you all for your guidance and valuable feedback!
