astragon Entertainment enters the second half of 2026 with two announced simulator titles. Bus Simulator 27, developed with Simteract, launches on September 9, 2026.

The open world holds up to 250 bus stops, licensed vehicles from 13 manufacturers, and long-distance bus routes for the first time. It uses Unreal Engine 5, dynamic weather, management elements, and 4-player online co-op. Pre-orders are live on Steam.
Two months later, during the Future Games Show at gamescom 2026, astragon and Grip Studios announced a new Police Simulator entry simply titled Police Simulator. Grip Studios, known for collaboration and porting work on titles like Mafia: Origins, Civilization VII, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, takes the lead on this entry. It launches in 2027 for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game is set in the fictional American city Faremont City, where players start with routine enforcement and unlock duties like car chases, drug busts, and gunfights.
Police Simulator includes over 50 missions, cross-play-compatible two-player co-op, and a customizable officer. A police dog companion can track suspects, search for drugs, and assist in dangerous situations, with players choosing among dog breeds. The game uses Unreal Engine 5 and improves driving physics with an AI traffic system. Equipment like cameras, traffic cones, barricades, and radar guns can be unlocked and upgraded.
