Take the wheel in two open world cities across the USA or Europe in Bus Simulator 21. Operate up to 30 officially licensed buses including double-decker and electric models. Navigate urban grids and countryside routes in single-player or co-op modes. Complete passenger runs with strict time limits and safety metrics to earn rewards. The game lets you focus on driving or dive into management by buying buses, scheduling routes, and balancing costs. Switch between manual control and automated systems for a hybrid playstyle. The sequel expands on its 2020 predecessor with a new US map and a refined European version featuring expanded districts and terrain. Realistic traffic AI and weather conditions add unpredictability. Community feedback highlights the 30 authentic bus models and fast-travel shortcuts as major draws. Over 500 hours of gameplay reported by early players in management-heavy builds. Graphics and physics improvements make road interactions feel sharper compared to earlier entries in the series.
For Bus Simulator 21, a fleet of 30 officially licensed buses by well-known, international manufacturers such as Alexander Dennis, BYD, Grande West, and Blue Bird will join the models by popular brands already included in the preceding installment (Mercedes-Benz, Setra, IVECO BUS, and more). For the first time, you will have the chance to master the challenges of daily traffic in the cockpit of double-decker and electric buses. Get ready for the brand-new, impressive US map Angel Shores and a revamped version of the European Seaside Valley map from the previous game installment – including its map extension. The even greater open-world approach of Bus Simulator 21 means that you will get to experience the exciting daily life of a bus driver in two massive, freely explorable cities, including industrial and outlying districts, a vibrant Chinatown district, a promenade, the surrounding hilly countryside, and the business park. Different difficulty levels and play modes are also available for a wide range of player types. In Bus Simulator 21, you will not only become a capable driver with countless miles on the road – you also have the option to use extended management elements. Creating detailed timetables, buying and selling buses, and planning efficient routes that take into account the daily number of passengers at peak hours – these and more varied tasks are available for you to enjoy. Do you prefer getting up from behind the desk and taking steering your buses into your own hands? No problem! The auto-features of Bus Simulator 21 can take over your management duties and let pure bus drivers simply enjoy their time on the road. Plus, the revised traffic and pedestrian AI, improved graphics, and a dynamic day-night cycle tightly linked to the peak hours system as well as different weather conditions ensure an even more immersive bus driving experience. Play in either single-player or synced multiplayer mode, transport your passengers safely and promptly to their destinations and be rewarded for your timely and safe driving at the end of pay day. Freely usable convenience features, such as quickly jumping to desired stops on the map (fast travel), fast forwarding time, and directly taking over the routes of your NPC buses, all complete the virtual bus driver package and guarantee even more fun behind the wheel!
