Truck World: Australia Launches in Early Access on Xbox, Microsoft Store, and Epic Games Store

November 5, 2026 – HypeTrain Digital and Truck World Studio are pleased to announce that Truck World: Australia is now available in Early Access on Xbox, Microsoft Store, and Epic Games Store, with a Steam release coming in 2027.
 

What Is Truck World: Australia?
 

Truck World: Australia isn't just another trucking simulator with an Australian setting.
 

You'll haul cargo on highways and off-road, but you'll also need to step out of the cab, hitch trailers, connect hoses, refuel, and service your truck by hand. You don't just drive a truck – you work as a trucker.

Main Features

  • A distinctly Australian trucking experience – navigate left-hand traffic, coastal highways, and dusty rural roads in a setting shaped by Australia's distinctive weather and fewer cargo restrictions.
  • Hands-on work beyond the wheel – step out of the cab to hitch trailers, connect hoses, refuel, and service your truck yourself.
  • Make the most of every load – fill your trailer by taking extra orders and combining multiple deliveries in one trip. Pick up cargo along the way, plan your route, and earn more per run.
  • Modern graphics – experience the landscapes and atmosphere of rural Australia in a modern truck simulator

Inspired by South Australia's Eyre Peninsula
 

The game currently takes place in a region inspired by South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, capturing the atmosphere of rural Australia through agricultural landscapes, small towns, and long stretches of road. Players take on delivery jobs supporting local farms, businesses, and industries.

Truck World Studio chose the Eyre Peninsula as the starting point because it offers an ideal environment to begin a trucking career. Its roads aren't overly busy, but its ports, farms, and local industries provide plenty of hauling opportunities. The distances between towns give players room to learn the ropes before taking on longer journeys into the Australian outback.

Road trains: Coming in a Future Update
 

Road trains – massive trucks pulling multiple trailers – are an iconic sight in the Australian outback and one of the features that first drew players to Truck World: Australia. One of the game's earliest videos showcased a road train and attracted significant attention.

Drivable road trains are planned for a future update and are not included in the initial Early Access release.

Building on the Success of the Truck World: Australia – First Haul

The Truck World: Australia – First Haul demo has already surpassed 1.2 million downloads on the Xbox Store and held the No. 1 spot on its demo charts for six consecutive months. We hope everyone who gave First Haul a try will enjoy taking the next step in their trucking career with Truck World: Australia, now available in Early Access.
