City Transport Simulator – The Big October 7 Release!
The wait is over — one of the biggest updates in the history of City Transport Simulator is here! October 7 brings a new map expansion, the feature-packed Update v1.3.0, the arrival of the MAN New Lion’s City Bus DLC, and the long-awaited console release for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
🚍 MAN New Lion’s City – Next Generation on the Road
The new MAN New Lion’s City DLC adds six officially licensed, highly detailed buses to your fleet — the 12C, 18C, and the brand-new 19C. Each model comes in multiple door variants and features authentic sounds, precise physics, and stunning interior detail.
From the detailed cockpit to the customizable RGB interior lighting, every detail was recreated with care. Through official partnerships with MAN Truck & Bus, Dr. Richard, and VOR, this DLC delivers real-world liveries, displays, and faithfully replicated vehicle systems — all for €19.99.

🗺️ Free Bus Map Expansion for Depot + South Route
All owners of the Depot + South Route DLC receive a free large-scale map expansion today! Explore a modern high-rise district filled with glass towers, busy sidewalks, and vibrant traffic. Eight new bus stops — five entirely new — expand your network and bring fresh routing possibilities.
The new terminal at Shuji-Nakamura Square serves as a key interchange between tram and bus lines. In Eglundsdorf, a new through-station connects via Jakob-De-Zoet Street back to the depot, where you can now start and end your day just like real drivers. Even AI vehicles follow realistic schedules, giving your city a new level of life and authenticity.
⚙️ Update v1.3.0 – Major Improvements
Alongside the new content, Update v1.3.0 brings many improvements, an Unreal Engine 5.5 upgrade, and polish across every area of gameplay.
