The day has finally come, SnowRunners. We’ve been teased about the new content and features ever since Year 1 wrapped up, and today is finally here. The first Season of Year 2, Season 5: Build & Dispatch is now available to download.
Available for Year 2 pass owners on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch or on PC, Season 5 takes players to the new Rostov Oblast area to discover two new maps around a fictional Russia. If you don’t have the Year 2 pass, the DLC is also available to own separately.
Two new TATRA trucks, the TATRA FORCE and TATRA PHOENIX, are unlockable by restoring the TATRA factory in the Factory Grounds area. The Antonovsky Nature Reserve is the other area to explore, and from the looks of the preview trailer, it looks absolutely breathtaking.
PC Crossplay is now available in the general update, as is Immersive Mode. More crossplay options will become available later on, but no matter where you purchased SnowRunner on PC, you can now play with anyone else that is also on PC.
There is also a separate DLC pack that is not included with the Year 2 pass, the Jeep DLC adds the Jeep Renegade and Wrangler Rubicon to your lineup of vehicles to scout the terrain. This will set you back another $5.99, but Jeeps are well known for their off-road capabilities.
Besides the new season and the added DLC, there are a ton of other bug fixes included for all players. We’ve included the patch notes below, so happy SnowRunning to all of you terrain simulating truckers out there.
