Hello everyone,<\/p>\n\n

Update 3.3 EA is now available. With this update, we are updating The Bus to Unreal Engine 5.6, which includes new lighting, a new sky and weather system, a pressurized air system and a complete overhaul of the snow. In addition, we have implemented general performance improvements and enhanced the driving physics: vehicle friction is now also influenced by the ground and weather. <\/p>\n\n

You can find all the changes in detail in the complete changelog below.<\/p>\n\n

We are also getting closer to the release of The Bus: On March 26, 2026, The Bus will be released on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Pre-orders are already open, and pre-orders on Xbox Series X|S will begin on March 4. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n
