The iconic and scenic water bodies meticulously redesigned by the SCS Software team for the American Truck Simulator – Missouri state map expansion were introduced in a blog post. The most notable of these is the Lake of the Ozarks, a large reservoir formed by damming the Osage River, which looks fantastic. Created by the Bagnell Dam, completed in 1931, this lake has a dragon shape when viewed from above and is located in the heart of Missouri, within the Ozark Mountains. It covers an impressive area of 54,000 acres (220 square kilometers). Another reservoir included on the map is the Harry S. Truman Dam and Reservoir, located just west of the Lake of the Ozarks along the Osage River. This vast body of water spans over 55,000 acres (225 square kilometers) and nearly matches the Lake of the Ozarks in surface area.
While crossing bridges in Missouri, we’ll also see various rivers and streams. In addition to iconic rivers like the Fox, Fabius, and Saint Francis, which feed into the mighty Mississippi River, we’ll encounter rivers like the Chariton, Grand, and Platte that wind toward the Missouri. Beyond these larger rivers, they’ve also added local beauties like the Weldon and Whetstone rivers, along with part of the Headwater Diversion Channel, and other small streams that enrich Missouri’s terrain.
The release date for the Missouri DLC is still unknown. It’s uncertain if it will arrive after ATS version 1.53, as there are still blog posts left to be introduced.”
