Publisher Saber Interactive and developer stillalive studios have announced bus driving simulation game, Bus Bound, for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
“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. “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.”

Shape the City
You’re not just driving, you’re improving public life. Upgrade stops, unlock new routes, earn passive perks, and see each district evolve into a more vibrant, pedestrian-friendly space.
Multiplayer on the Move
Band together with up to three other players! Split off to tackle multiple simultaneous routes and cooperate to contribute to your host’s goal to improve and elevate Emberville.
Customize Your Fleet
