Extreme Offroad Truck Simulator Heavy Duty Challenge Set for Release in late 2021

Precision, skill and nerves of steel – that’s what you need to be successful in Heavy Duty Challenge, the upcoming extreme off-road truck simulator by Nano Games and Aerosoft. The game is set for a release on Steam in late 2021.

The game is officially supported by the Europa Truck Trial. Jürgen Funke, Organizer, says “I am happy to support Nano Games and Aerosoft in the development of the game. Heavy Duty Challenge will be an action-packed and realistic virtual version of our off-road truck sport. Even in its early stage it is already fun to play – let’s go!”

In Heavy Duty Challenge, 10 powerful trucks in three categories can be used by aspiring off-road truck drivers to conquer extremely challenging courses. And work their way up to the top class of 4-axle trucks to win the title as champion of the truck trails in a real-time league system based on the Europa Truck Trial.

Public Playtest upcoming: If you can’t wait to try the game, you’ll have the chance to take a detailed look at the game in a public playtest on Steam this coming weekend. There will be three trucks (one Unimog and two MAN models) and one open world level with 8 sections. The playtest will begin on Thursday, June 3, 2021 and run up to and including Sunday, June 6, 2021. Players can participate in the playtest via Heavy Duty Challenge’s Steam page or Discord.
