The PostgreSQL Global Development Group announces that the first release
candidate of PostgreSQL 19 is now available for download. As a release
candidate, PostgreSQL 19 RC 1 will be mostly identical to the initial release of
PostgreSQL 19, though some more fixes may be applied prior to the general
availability of PostgreSQL 19.
The next scheduled update release
for supported versions of PostgreSQL, on November 12, 2026, will include a large
number of fixes. Because of this, the release team decided to include these
fixes in PostgreSQL 19 before its general availability. This means a second
release candidate, PostgreSQL 19 RC 2, will be available on the same day as the
update release.
The planned date for the general availability of PostgreSQL 19 is
November 19, 2026. Please see the "Release Schedule" section for more details.
Upgrading to PostgreSQL 19 RC 1
To upgrade to PostgreSQL 19 RC 1 from earlier versions of PostgreSQL, you will
need to use a major version upgrade strategy, e.g. pg_upgrade or
pg_dump / pg_restore. For more information, please visit the documentation
section on upgrading:
Fix COPY (query) TO ... (FORMAT json)
to use the query's column names, including aliases, as the JSON keys instead of
the table's column names.
For a detailed list of fixes, please visit the
open items
page.
Release Schedule
This is the first release candidate for PostgreSQL 19. The release team plans to
issue a second release candidate, PostgreSQL 19 RC 2, on November 12, 2026.
Unless an issue is discovered that requires a delay or an additional release
candidate, PostgreSQL 19 should be made generally available on
November 19, 2026.
For further information please see the
Beta Testing page.

Tonight the Autumn veil grows thin, A portal swirls, and from within The land of Brackenreach you hear The Witches calling, crystal clear.
They beckon you to help once more, And welcome you upon their shore. With fire, earth and air they say, “Three gifts await along the way!”
“Driver bold, come cross our land, With pumpkin magic treats in hand. From dock to keep, from vale to shore, Six runs you need—and maybe more!”
The tall ship waits beside the quay, For tides the sisters stir at sea. Past marshland mist and village glow, Where grinning pumpkins watch you go.
Through Dragon’s Den to Castle Keep, Where shadows stir and secrets sleep. The sisters watch as lanterns glow, And guard the winding road below.
As thanks, one wisp will light your way, Where others lead the lost astray. A brass key bears the rune of earth, To show the sisters know your worth.
Seek out the witches’ hidden home, Where embers glow upon a tome. The Ember Grimoire holds its spells, To guard the land where magic dwells.
Upon return, attend the call, To spread the spooky treats for all, Not just to Brackenhelm as one, But cities, towns and everyone.
For Hauloween is in the air, And there’s no time to flee nor dare To hide away from all the treats That wait for you, but not to eat, NO, they must be hauled, delivered quick, Then parked away, now that’s the trick!
This Halloween, prepare to cross the veil in our Return to Brackenreach - World of Trucks event! The hidden and treacherous roads of Brackenreach have reopened for truckers in Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator, whether you are returning or entering the realm for the first time. Adventure and new rewards await, so let's roll!
This year, we are asking our #BestCommunityEver to work together towards a combined community goal of 1,300,000 deliveries. It is another ambitious challenge, but after everything our community achieved last Halloween, we know that no goal is beyond your reach!
As autumn thins the veil once more, the road to Brackenreach reopens. The three sisters who ward this land, mistresses of fire, earth, and air, have not forgotten the truckers who came to their aid last year, and this Halloween their call reaches beyond the veil once more. The marsh mist still hides the wisps that lead the lost, the tall ship still waits at the docks for tides stirred by old magic, and the pumpkins of the village still grin their crooked, knowing grins as you pass. In gratitude, each sister has prepared a special gift, kept safe until the road reopened. Help the witches and villagers once more by carrying Halloween supplies through the portals and along the winding roads to Castle Brackenhelm. Brackenreach remembers. Will you answer the call?
Your personal goal? Complete 15 Halloween deliveries across any trucking territory, including 3 to and 3 from Castle Brackenhelm, more details in the rules below.
Alongside your journeys to and from Brackenreach, you will help bring the Halloween festivities to cities throughout the homeland by delivering supplies between them. Enchanted cargo will also pass back through the portals, carrying a little of Brackenreach into the outside world, perhaps a gesture of gratitude from the witches to those who answered their call.
Our #ReturnToBrackenreach event will once again bring the magic of Brackenreach to your desktop with its spellbinding Halloween theme. We hope its lively and spooky atmosphere helps set the mood for every journey beyond the veil!
We will also be hosting a special developer live stream where we'll discuss how the event was designed, share fun insights, and enjoy Halloween in a nice and relaxed session while playing and contributing towards the community goal. Join us on Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook on Monday, October 19, from 6 pm CEST as we journey into Brackenreach!
Return to Brackenreach Rules:
Using External Contracts with a World of Trucks-connected profile in Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator, or both, the community goal is to achieve 1,300,000 deliveries of Halloween treats and supplies to or from any city, including the mysterious land of Brackenreach, where your destination will be Castle Brackenhelm.
There are 4 types of cargo that can be delivered in this event:
Halloween Treats
Halloween Costumes
Halloween Herbs & Spices
Halloween Crafts
Your personal goal is to complete 15 Halloween deliveries across any trucking territory, including 3 to and 3 fromCastle Brackenhelm, using Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator or both games combined.
Your bonus goal is to discover the Witches' House, hidden within the land of Brackenreach, by driving to it.
Rewards
Personal: Players who complete the required 15 or more Halloween deliveries will gain a unique World of Trucks Achievement plus a mystical Wisp Lantern cabin item, as a Steam inventory item.
Community: When the community goal of achieving 1,300,000 Halloween deliveries is met, and if the player has also achieved their personal goal, then they will also receive the fabled Key to Brackenreach hanging cabin item, as a Steam inventory item.
Discovery: When the player discovers the Witch House, hidden within the land of Brackenreach, they will receive the mysterious Ember Grimoire cabin item, as a Steam inventory item. Players will also receive last year's reward of a Spooky Horn vehicle accessory, at the same time.
Brackenreach directions:
A portal to Brackenreach appears once you accept event cargo bound for Castle Brackenhelm. Find it on the map, a spiral icon, and navigate to it. Look for the sparkles with falling autumn leaves!
Leaving Brackenreach with cargo takes you to its destination; without cargo, you’ll be sent to a random city for a new job.
Note: In order to qualify for any community reward, you must complete at least your personal goal in Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator or both. Each reward will be a Steam inventory item for both Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator. Once completed, claim your reward in the Events page on your World of Trucks profile.
The event will be concluded on Sunday, the 1st of November at 23:59 UTC.
We're super excited to welcome you back to the legendary land of Brackenreach and hear tales of your journeys through the veil once more. From the misty marshes to Castle Brackenhelm, the three guardian witches await your help, with gifts of fire, earth and air to thank you for your deliveries. It means so much to all the teams who brought this magical land to life to see you return, and we’d love to see photos of your adventures as you reach your goals and claim the sisters’ rewards this Halloween. Share your screenshots and videos with us using the hashtag #ReturnToBrackenreach on our Facebook ATS / ETS2, X (formerly Twitter), and Instagram profiles, and we will share our favourite ones.
