Evaluation

Fernbus Simulator launched on August 25, 2016 and has since added more than 30 add-on packs with new bus models and regional maps, with additions spread across 2017 through 2026. The most recent major update, Update 35, arrived alongside the England DLC and the Tourism W410 coach on September 3, 2026. The update moved the game to Unreal Engine 5.6, added a new sky and weather system, and made the city of Bremerhaven available free for all players. In an April 30, 2026 post, the developer apologized for slower update frequency and outlined the year's plans, all of which have since arrived. A public beta hotfix followed on October 2, 2026, showing the developer is still actively working on the game. The England DLC is available on PC now. The developer has said the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions will follow at a later date, and no console date has been announced yet. The previous add-on pack before the England DLC was Top Class HDH on January 9, 2025. No specific next expansion has been named, but the game's long history of regular additions and the recent activity point to continued updates.

About this game

Thanks to the cooperation with FlixBus, the Fernbus Coach Simulator lets you experience the world of driving a large coach on Germany's Autobahn and motorways in great detail.

Driving a large and modern MAN Lion’s Coach bus, you will experience the everyday life of a coach bus driver. Navigate a complex network of motorways and roads to bus stations in more than 40 German cities and stay in constant contact with the control centre.

Drive your bus carefully on the highways by day and night, in all seasons and in all weathers. Approximately 20.000 km of the German FlixBus route network have been recreated. Time passes at a scale of 1:10 so that the individual tours do not take too long.

As in real life, passengers who already have a valid ticket can board the bus immediately at the bus stops while the other passengers have to buy a new ticket from the driver.

Both licenced MAN coaches are equipped with original cockpits including all functions. The interior and exterior of the busses are modelled in great detail and the original passenger announcements create a realistic atmosphere. Construction sites, traffic jams and accidents will challenge you to keep up with the tight schedule.
