In Bus Simulator 27, players take the wheel of officially licensed buses as they establish, expand, and manage their own bus company – either solo or together with friends in cooperative multiplayer for up to four players, including full crossplay support.

Since launch, several updates have further enhanced the gameplay experience and refined existing features. Key areas of improvement include traffic AI, stability and performance, as well as the driving evaluation system. In addition, new content, additional language options, and numerous quality-of-life improvements have been introduced. These include passenger stop requests, the ability to seamlessly continue driving after completing an extra trip ("Seamless Driving"), and the option to start additional trips directly from a bus depot.

The BYD Bus Pack is available now as a free download from the respective digital stores. Featuring the well-known BYD eBus K9UD 12m and the BYD eBus K11U 18m, the pack introduces two fully electric bus models from BYD, a global high-tech Company. BYD buses with BYD advanced techologies and designs have been in Bus Simulator 21 and will comeback now in Bus Simulator 27.

With these additions, players can further expand their fleet in Felicia Bay with two more fully electric buses.

Bus Simulator 27 is available for Steam, Epic Games Store, and the Microsoft Store, as well as PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S.

In addition to the Standard Edition, a Year 1 Edition is available. This edition includes the Year 1 Season Pass.

An overview of all editions is available on the official website.
