The game will feature a coastline and districts like Chinatown. In addition to the California map, the game will have a revised "Seaside Valley" map from its predecessor Bus Simulator 18.[1] Vehicle-wise, the game introduces a double-decker bus — such as the officially-licensed Alexander Dennis Enviro500 — as well as electric buses to the series.[2] Further licensed bus brands include Blue Bird, BYD, Grande West, Iveco, MAN, Mercedes-Benz, Scania, Setra and Volvo. The game will also offer a cooperative multiplayer mode.[3]
