Product information "The Bus - Early Access version"

The Bus is the next generation of city bus driving simulation by TML-Studios! Transport your passengers on different lines across the capital city of Germany, Berlin, with various busses and discover numerous interesting sights and landmarks. On a realistic scale of 1:1, you explore the city and experience it at every day- and nighttime as well as with every weather in every season.

Manage your fleet and team up with other drivers online or drive the vehicle of your choice in the single player mode. Individualize your game with different editors and let passengers, pedestrians, and AI traffic bring the virtual Berlin to life.

You can walk freely inside the capital city – either with keyboard and mouse or with a steering wheel, depending on your preference.
A photo mode for creating your own screenshots as well as the known web-radio with two channels complete the The Bus package.
