Saber Interactive and stillalive studios announce Bus Bound, a new bus-driving experience coming to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S from the creators of Bus Simulator 21 and Bus Simulator 18. Word is this is an "all-new and authentic" treatment of the topic, which is reinforced by the title, which reflects the existential dread passengers have at being stuck taking the bus. And real bus nerds can rejoice, as this will feature officially licensed American buses for added authenticity. The wheels on the bus go round and round in the Announcement Trailer, which is set in Emberville, a city that's a little late to the whole mass transportation thing. Here's word:
