As we continue our development journey through the Louisiana DLC for American Truck Simulator, it’s time to take a closer look at two of the state’s iconic cities - New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Each city offers its own distinct blend of culture, history, and architecture, and our team has been working hard to bring its unique atmosphere to life behind the wheel.


New Orleans
Nestled along the banks of the Mississippi River, New Orleans is one of the most recognizable cities in the United States. Known for its music, food, and unmistakable Southern charm, it’s a destination that feels alive no matter the hour. In American Truck Simulator, players will get the chance to explore some of its most famous landmarks and roadways.


One of the standout features truckers will encounter is the Crescent City Connection. This twin-span bridge carries traffic across the Mississippi River and provides stunning views of the city’s skyline. Just beyond, the New Orleans Dome, home to countless sporting events and concerts, towers proudly as a centerpiece of the downtown area. Whether you’re hauling freight near the waterfront or driving through the bustling urban core, New Orleans is sure to offe
rom around the world, while the National WWII Museum stands as one of the nation’s most respected historical attractions. And of course, no trip through New Orleans would be complete without a glimpse of Canal Street.


Baton Rouge
Roughly an hour’s drive north along the river, Baton Rouge serves as Louisiana’s capital. It’s a city where history meets progress, and we’ve worked to reflect that balance throughout its in-game recreation.


Crossing the impressive Horace Wilkinson Bridge provides an unforgettable view of the city and the Mississippi below, a highlight for any trucker making their way through the region. Once inside the city, players can spot several notable landmarks, including the Old State Capitol, with its castle-like Gothic Revival design, and the New State Capitol, the tallest Capitol building in the United States. Nearby, the Baton Rouge Memorial Plaza adds a solemn yet beautiful touch to the downtown landscape.


In addition to these landmarks, Baton Rouge is home to several cultural and recreational attractions, for example, the River Center Arena, the USS KIDD Veterans Museum, the Louisiana Art & Science Museum, and the Memorial Stadium. As with all major cities in American Truck Simulator, Baton Rouge won’t just be about sightseeing. You’ll find plenty of opportunities for freight deliveries across industrial zones and commercial areas.
Both New Orleans and Baton Rouge capture the spirit of Louisiana, a blend of vibrant culture, deep-rooted history, and the unshakable rhythm of life along the river, and we can’t wait for you to experience these incredible cities for yourself when the Louisiana DLC arrives in American Truck Simulator.
