Welcome to Peoria! Today, we're excited to share with you a look at this unique city, which will be featured in our upcoming Illinois DLC for American Truck Simulator!

Located on the banks of the Illinois River, Peoria is the eighth-most populous city in the State and is known for its strong heritage, unique skyline, and connections to the wider Midwest. Industry also plays an important role in Peoria’s identity. 

The city has long been associated with one of the world’s leading manufacturers of construction and mining equipment, which once had its global headquarters here. That legacy can still be felt today through the presence of many depots, facilities, and even a visitor center, which has become a popular local landmark. In American Truck Simulator, players will be able to deliver to a variety of industrial depots located throughout the area, reflecting Peoria’s continuing importance as a hub of heavy equipment and manufacturing.

Peoria’s connection to the Illinois River runs deep, from its early days as a trading post to its modern role in logistics. Our rendition of the city includes a custom river port depot, allowing players to experience this important aspect of local industry firsthand. With its sweeping waterfront views, the river also delivers some of the most memorable driving moments in Peoria. 

While much of downtown Peoria is beyond the scale of our map, several notable landmarks have been brought to life in-game. These include hospitals, bridges, and the distinctive Twin Towers Place, which, although primarily residential, form a recognizable part of the city’s skyline. Together, they help capture the spirit of Peoria, even from a distance.

On the road network side, drivers will primarily find themselves travelling along Interstate 74, which connects Peoria to Bloomington and beyond, as well as U.S. Route 24. Both routes provide important links for truckers passing through central Illinois, and ensure Peoria remains a key stop on your journey across the state.

We hope you’ve enjoyed this first look at Peoria, and we’re excited to share even more from this upcoming DLC soon.
