Astragon Entertainment has presented Bus Simulator 27, the next installment in its simulator saga. The title, scheduled for the second half of 2026, promises to be the most complete in the series. It will be set in the fictional region of Felicia Bay, inspired by the Iberian Peninsula, and will include story, challenge, and free modes, as well as online co-op for four players.
Graphics Engine and Traffic Management in Felicia Bay 🗺️
Development focuses on a new iteration of Astragon's proprietary engine, with emphasis on traffic density and behavior in the extensive Felicia Bay map. The inclusion of more than 45 licensed vehicles, with electric and articulated models, requires specific physics and energy management systems. The AI for pedestrians and other drivers aims to offer a driving environment with consistent challenges.
Preparing the Wallet for the Simulated Fine 😅
With the promise of more realistic traffic, we can anticipate that the experience will include meticulously recreated daily traffic jams and the classic car that changes lanes without signaling. The novelty of four-player co-op suggests that, finally, we will be able to form a full team to complain live about the same virtual traffic jams. A true simulation of patience behind the wheel.
