Our take on Australian Road Trains
Instead of centering on racing or conventional cargo trucking, the game makes extreme freight the main spectacle. Its career structure also combines driving with simultaneous management of vehicles and customers, while trailer chains of 10 or more replace the usual single-trailer setup.
What is Australian Road Trains?
Drive trucks across Australian roads while hauling machines, wood, bulk goods, and other oversized freight.
Career progression introduces higher-paying contracts, which can fund additional tractors and access to larger deliveries. The game includes standard truck configurations as well as combinations using 10 or more trailers. A dynamic weather system, varied scenery, and a broad road network shape the driving environment. Players can oversee several vehicles and customers at once, and can add their own logos. The game supports steering wheels and controllers, and presents its environments in 3D.
