Experience Berlin on a 1:1 scale - with The Bus, the next generation of city bus simulation. Drive true-to-life routes through a vibrant capital city, sell tickets, master traffic rules and immerse yourself in everyday urban public transport - available in Early Access.

Precise simulation of the Berlin BVG

The Bus puts you at the wheel of original licensed MAN and Scania buses on real routes such as TXL, 100, 200, 245 and 300 - in recreated Berlin (incl. Victory Column, Brandenburg Gate, Alexanderplatz) with day-night cycle, weather, AI traffic and pedestrians.

Most realistic driving experience & ticket sales

Sell tickets, check tickets and interact with waiting and boarding passengers. Thanks to complex traffic light systems, live traffic flows and special traffic features such as a live radio ("FlashBass.FM"), it's as realistic as in real BVG everyday life.

Extensive editors & modding tools

Design your own lines, routes, timetables and tours. Use the Unreal Engine modding editor to create maps and content for the Steam Workshop. Customization including repaints, photo mode and editor tooling.

Advanced Early Access Roadmap

Currently in phase 2 with freeplay multiplayer, new lines (200, 245) and bus variants. Economic simulation with fleet management, multiplayer economy, AI streetcars and open hub Berlin city center will follow in the future.
