American Truck Simulator - Illinois

Welcome to the beautiful Prairie State! Illinois showcases the best of what the USA has to offer. Hop into your rig, hit the legendary Route 66, and journey through Springfield, the state’s historic capital, to Chicago, one of the Midwest's most iconic cities.

Travel alongside the mighty Mississippi River, which defines the state’s western border. Discover charming river towns, classic steamboats, and scenic vineyards dotting the landscape. In the southern part of Illinois, experience a blend of cities, lush farmland, and quaint small towns. Meanwhile, the northeastern region is a bustling hub of urban and suburban life, anchored by Chicago, the nation’s third-largest city, nestled on the bank of Lake Michigan.

Illinois is not just about its picturesque landscapes, you can also be sure there will be no shortage of jobs waiting for you. The state ranks among the nation's leaders in exports, agricultural production, and manufacturing as it lies within both the old industrial belt and the fertile agricultural heart of the country. Chicago serves as a national railroad hub, its international airport is one of the busiest in the world, and the state’s highways and waterways are always busy with traffic.
