Publisher Saber Interactive and developer stillalive studios have announced Bus Bound, a new bus driving simulation game coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC (Steam). A release date was not announced.
“After Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop, we took a step back to evaluate what our fans truly wanted in a bus driving experience,” said stillalive studios head Julian Mautner in a press release. “With Bus Bound, we focused on making the core experience—how the bus feels, how the city engages with the player—fun in a way that’s easy to pick up for new players while still engaging for our core audience.”
Here is an overview of the game, via Saber Interactive:
