According to the announcement, the beta branch is currently available for download and can simply be selected via the Steam client. It matches a similar beta for the same update applied in parallel to the sister game Euro Truck Simulator 2.

The beta includes the much-awaited California Rework phase 4, including Los Angeles, San Diego, and plenty more local cities and routes.

Yet, there’s a lot more under the hood, like the update to dynamic cargo loading and uploading, which will make the feature available across the whole of the US.

The fifth generation of the Freightliner Cascadia will be added to the driving academy,

Quality-of-life improvements include an indication of whether an option has been changed from its default value in the game’s settings. We also get smooth and auto camera centering.

The Special Transport DLC is getting its own update including the ability to haul oversized cargo between Los Angeles and San Diego via I-5 route. The speed limit has also been raised from 40 mph to 55 mph.

A new sliding tandems feature has been added to select trailers, and below you can enjoy a gallery of screenshots and the changelog.
