The story so far
What we know about Road Kings
Road Kings is a truck simulation game developed by Saber Interactive and published by Focus Entertainment. Players take the wheel of a 40-ton semi and haul cargo across the coastal plains of the American South, with a setting inspired by the Florida-Georgia border and routes between Jacksonville and Savannah. The game starts you as a rookie driver and builds towards running your own company, one job at a time.
The publisher describes a simulation where weight, wear, brakes, torque, tires and transmissions matter, along with dynamic weather and road surfaces. A story thread has a ruthless corporation expanding across the region, with players delivering critical supplies and rescuing communities during natural and man-made disasters. Reputation with drivers, dispatchers and agencies shapes your progress, and asynchronous multiplayer adds companies and global leaderboards.
Road Kings was announced at Gamescom Opening Night Live in August 2025 for a 2026 window. In August 2026 it was moved to 11 March 2027 for PC (Steam), PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with a new trailer shown at the same event.
