Publisher Saber Interactive and developer stillalive studios announced on March 30, 2026, that the bus driving simulation game Bus Bound will launch on April 30, 2026.
The title is scheduled for release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via both Steam and the Epic Games Store with a standard edition price of $29.99.

A Deluxe Edition priced at $39.99 will also be available on April 30, 2026, featuring the base game, the Horizon Speed 40-foot bus, three retro skins, and a Bus Pass for three future content expansions.
Players who pre-order either version of the game will receive the Horizon Hydrogen 40-foot Gen2 bus along with three modern skins as a bonus.
Set in the fictional city of Emberville, the game tasks players with driving licensed vehicles from manufacturers like New Flyer and Blue Bird to improve urban infrastructure.
The simulation includes 17 different buses at launch and allows players to upgrade stops and unlock new routes to revitalize various city districts.
Bus Bound features an online cooperative multiplayer mode where up to four players can work together to manage routes and enhance the host player’s home city.
Development is being handled by stillalive studios, the team previously responsible for the Bus Simulator 18 and Bus Simulator 21 titles.
The gameplay experience focuses on generating goodwill with passengers to unlock new visual styles and mechanical upgrades for a customized fleet.
Saber Interactive released a new trailer on March 30, 2026, to showcase the driving mechanics and the evolving environment of Emberville.
