In Bus Simulator 27 players get the opportunity to establish their own public transport company in Felicia Bay – a fictional region inspired by the Iberian Peninsula consisting of too vibrant cities and a huge rural area in between.

More than 45 officially licensed buses from 13 world-famous manufacturers, such as Solaris™, Mercedes-Benz, MAN, IVECO BUS, Scania, and Volvo, are waiting for you to drive. Whether you are interested in classic rigid, articulated, and double-decker buses or in new electric buses – Bus Simulator 27 has got you covered. And for the first time ever in the series, you can get behind the wheel of impressive coach buses and enjoy long-distance journeys!
