Building Nature & Mountains with Pavel
Another blog where we take you behind the scenes of our work is here! This time, we're excited to introduce you to our talented map designer Pavel. He is currently working on the nature and mountains for the Nordic Horizons map expansion. So let's learn more about his creative process!
ENVIRONMENT
Forests
The Nordic forests of Norway, Sweden, and Finland are some of Europe's most beautiful and ecologically rich areas. The northern regions of Finland, Sweden, and Norway all share similar forest biomes. However, when traveling from the south to the most northern areas of these regions, you'll be able to spot some differences in how these forests have grown.

New Assets to Build the World With
Remember, the models you see here represent just a portion of the new content our team has been creating. As this DLC is still in development, there's much more to come. Now, let's take a closer look at what’s in store!
CITIES
Rovaniemi
Tervetuloa to Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland! Best known as the official hometown of Santa Claus, this northern city attracts visitors from all around the world, with its unique blend of wilderness and modern comforts. As one of the larger cities in Finland, there is plenty to explore and discover as a visiting truck driver.
CITIES
Bodø
Located just north of the Arctic Circle, Bodø is the second biggest city in Northern Norway after Tromsø. Originally established as a trading town, it has a rich history in fishing and mining, which gave the town prosperity. During World War II, much of the town was unfortunately destroyed, but it has been completely rebuilt and enlarged, with a few surviving structures preserved. These can be found in our virtual recreation of Bodø as custom built buildings.
CITIES
City Landmarks
Along your journey through the northernmost part of Europe, you will come across plenty of historical buildings, beautiful sculptures, and other stunning structures. One of them is the Gävle Theater, a hallmark of Swedish theater architecture. Located in the heart of Gävle, a charming port town on Sweden's east coast, this historic building was completed in 1878 and remains a testament to the city's cultural heritage.

EXPANSION DESCRIPTION
The expansion features expansive fjords of Norway all the way to the Arctic Ocean, challenging bridges, underwater tunnels, and narrow roads, complete with encounters with reindeer and coastal fishing villages. Drive through Sweden’s Norrland, offering a diverse environment, from settled regions along the main E4 road to the barren hills of the Scandinavian mountains. Finland’s Lapland, with its dense coniferous forests to the expansive barren tundra, presents a stark contrast to the southern part of the country
