Hot in front! Finally, so to speak, since Focus tells us through its forum and “Community update” posts that the SnowRunner Season 2 update will arrive in November. And the ice visibly takes over.
« This is the biggest update we have released for SnowRunner to date. " : The tone is set ! And for good reason, in addition to the traditional bug fixes, the developers have added, for Season Pass or Premium Edition owners, 3 vehicles and 2 new maps in the environment of Yukon, Canada. In the latter, you will find something to take care of during this period of confinement since your main objective will be to rebuild a huge processing plant.
Three new vehicles
The second season also brings three new vehicles. Starting with the Caterpillar 770G and TH357, two very different machines in their uses and size. The 770G is the biggest truck the franchise has ever seen, while the TH357 is a telescopic that will take on the role of a scout here. It is therefore equipped with an arm that could be useful to you during a high-risk convoy.
Finally, the KRS 58 Bandit is a rugged Russian 8 × 8 rescue vehicle suitable for the most inhospitable terrain. An interesting note: this vehicle was actually chosen by the first beta testers in March 2019.
For players without a season pass
“Basic” players are not forgotten, the Phase 2 update will bring new missions and new skins for existing environments and vehicles. New test cards will appear as well as a much requested feature: the possibility of securing the transport of a vehicle on the platforms!
Console mods for SnowRunner are coming soon
Modding on consoles takes an important step. Mod "bundling" (or compilation if you prefer) will soon be possible with the future editor update (patch 10). For the moment in the test phase, the developers announce that only mods created with this new software will be compatible on consoles. But Saber Interactive to clarify that « only the selected mods will be on consoles ”, like the Farming Simulator modhub.
