SnowRunner Season 11: Lights & Cameras visits Scandinavia

SnowRunner keeps on giving, despite developer Saber Interactive hard at work at the Expeditions successor, with another batch of paid-for downloadable content now available.

This time, with Season 11, we’re off to the wintry plains of Scandinavia, where a film crew needs help moving equipment around – presumably for a moody murder mystery.

In between working with the filmmakers, you can also help renovate the region and construct new observation posts before the upcoming winter season. This includes the creation of a cable car and camp sites.

Expect forests, snow-capped mountains and, at night, the Northern lights (aurora borealis). The area is made up of two new maps, both 4 km².

There will also be two new vehicles, one truck and one off-roader:

• NEO Falcon 2000
• Burlak 6×6

Alongside the paid DLC, there is a free game update (full changelog below) featuring new trailers, new cranes, new flat-beds and a set of 10 new stickers is also available for all players

SnowRunner Season 11, Lights & Cameras, is available right now for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC for £5.79/$6.99/€6.99.
