Work is progressing nicely on the next Long Drive North update! Launching in May, this update will introduce a shared RV option for multiplayer and a number of RV upgrades such as engine enhancements, appliances and storage, as well as RV customisation. These upgrades will give your road trips a greater sense of purpose and game progression.

Today we're sharing a first look at some of the RV upgrades currently in development. Enjoy!

Storage for fuel, tires and RV parts is vital to your journey through the American wilderness. This update will allow you to craft handy roof racks and tire racks!

Make sure your friends feel welcome in and around your RV by crafting a foldable bench and chairs.

In addition to the existing storage cabinets you can craft, we're adding a number of useful interior RV appliances which will be key to your survival.

Craft a heater to keep your RV warm.

Make sure to explore plenty of points of interest and keep an eye out for microwaves and stoves, which you'll be able to pick up and take back to install in your RV. These will also give players more to do when using the upcoming shared RV option, with the ability to cook food while on the move.

In addition to the bobbleheads you can find at POIs and place in your RV, introduced in the last update, we're adding the ability to spray paint your RV in a variety of colours. Make your RV your own!

We can't wait to get this update into your hands in May and hear what you think! Keep an eye out for news on the update release.
