Bus Simulator 16 has licensed the vehicles of MAN.[1] In addition to the buses of the German bus maker, the game features a total of six buses that allow players to drive across five districts.[2] The game also provides a route manager for players to create their own bus lines. A multiplayer mode is available in the game as well.[3]
