Get behind the wheel of your 8 original licensed city buses from the great brands of Mercedes-Benz, Setra, MAN, and IVECO and transport your passengers safely and punctually to their destinations, either solo in single player mode, or with friends in real-time multiplayer mode. you are a bus driver of your company and making and doing routes over the city which is initially called Seaside Valley. This is definitely a improvement from Bus Simulator 16 and I think it's heading the the right direction. With the Unreal Engine it makes the game look so much more realistic. I really like the fact that the developers made the smart decision, in the long run, to give us full access to the games core functionalities and make it modifiable from the start. Definitely worth a try for driving simulator fans. If you like vehicle simulation games I think you will like this one.
