Lowercase partners astragon Entertainment and stillalive studios now offer the
official release of
Bus Simulator 21, offering the chance to take the
wheel of a bus and try to get everyone to their destinations safe and on time.
The game contains no
Batman Scenarios, but it does feature brand-name buses, two maps featuring a
more open-world approach, and a free skin pack DLC for everyone who purchases
this within the first week. The Windows edition is available
on Steam
and there are also Xbox One and PlayStation 4 editions on each respective
console. Here's the
Release Trailer and here's more on the game:
Compared to its
predecessor, Bus Simulator 21 offers two huge, lively maps: The North
American-inspired city “Angel Shores”, and the European based city “Seaside
Valley” known from its predecessor Bus Simulator 18 including the areas of the
official map expansion. Both maps are offering an even freer open-world approach
that invites players to explore their surroundings: For example, to pay a visit
to the bus dealer to look at new models or to go on a merry search for carefully
hidden easter eggs - be it alone or in cooperative multiplayer mode with up to
three other players.
Another innovation is the floating day and night cycle, including dynamic
weather. In addition, players will - for the first time - be able to access
convenience comfort functions such as fast travel to all important points on the
map, an option to fast forward the time to any point, and take-over the buses of
their teammates or AI colleagues at any time they want. True to the motto “Less
time in menus and more time on the road”, players are free to choose whether
they want to use these options via the map menu or within the game world
directly.
