All aboard! The Steam Next Fest demo for Bus Bound, the vibrant new bus driving game from Saber Interactive and independent developer stillalive studios, is now live! Fans of Bus Simulator 21 and Bus Simulator 18 can take the wheel of real-world licensed buses and help shape the city of Emberville, one stop at a time.
In the demo, explore Ashtree, Emberville’s first district, while mastering two unique buses – the Bluebird Sigma and New Flyer Excelsior Clean Diesel. Navigate traffic through dynamic day and night cycles, rain or shine, delivering passengers safely to unlock rewards, upgrade your district, and customize your routes and liveries.
While the Steam Next Fest demo is single-player, the full game arriving in 2026 will feature online co-op for up to four players, letting you team up with friends to transform Emberville together.
Experience the streets of Emberville today by playing the demo and wishlist Bus Bound for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S ahead of its 2026 launch!
