About Truck Simulator US Driver
Truck Simulator US Driver is a racing/simulator game for PlayStation 5, released December 16, 2025, by Christopher Ikeda. It places you behind the wheel of a truck, navigating real US highways to deliver cargo between cities. The game focuses on realism, with detailed truck handling, traffic systems, and weather effects. Single-player only, it offers a mix of structured missions and open exploration. The goal is to manage routes, maintain vehicles, and build a career while soaking in scenic routes. Best for players who enjoy methodical, long-term gameplay over high-speed action.
Gameplay
You spend most of your time driving trucks across the US, hauling cargo like food, electronics, or furniture. Each mission has strict delivery windows, and penalties apply for delays. Controls are responsive, with realistic gear shifts, trailer sway, and weight distribution. The map includes major cities and rural roads, with traffic patterns that adapt to the time of day. Missions vary from short trips to multi-day routes, requiring planning for rest stops and fuel. Upgrades let you customize trucks and unlock faster models. The pace is deliberate, with little combat or distractions, just driving, planning, and the occasional roadblock.
What Players Think
Community ratings average 8.4/10, with 72% of players completing over 80% of content. Average playtime is 22 hours, and 68% finish the game within 30 hours. Moods are split: 45% describe it as "relaxed," 30% as "challenging," and 25% as "monotonous." Reviewers praise the realistic traffic AI and vehicle physics but criticize repetitive missions. One user wrote, "The simulation depth is unmatched, but the lack of side quests makes it feel like work." Another noted, "Perfect for long road-trip vibes, but not for short sessions." Achievement completion is 89%, with 12 main milestones focused on milestones like 1,000 hours driven.
PlayPile's Take
Truck Simulator US Driver is a niche title for fans of logistical challenges and open-world driving. It lacks action or variety but excels in simulation depth. Price hasn’t been disclosed, but the 22-hour average playtime suggests it’s more of a side project than a mainstay. Recommended for those who enjoy slow, methodical gameplay and have patience for repetitive tasks. If you’re looking for a game that makes you feel like a real trucker, this is it, but don’t expect excitement.
