The CTS 2026 Season Pass normally costs €64.99. Our discount code SIMULATORENNEWS reduces the price in the official CTS shop by five percent. This lowers the price to €61.74.

The Citybus C2, the exclusive C2K, the Tatra KT4D, the Vienna Bus & Tram map DLC, and the Flexity Graz are included. No additional purchases are required for these contents afterwards.

However, the price alone does not yet tell you whether the package is worthwhile. The decisive factor is which DLCs you actually want.

How much do the already released DLCs cost?

The Citybus C2 costs €19.99 individually. With our discount, the price is reduced to approximately €18.99.

The Tatra KT4D also costs €19.99 individually, or approximately €18.99 with the discount.

Anyone who only wants these two DLCs pays €37.98 in total with the discount. In this case, the Season Pass would still be €23.76 more expensive. For the C2 and Tatra alone, it is therefore not financially worthwhile.

How expensive will Vienna and the Flexity Graz be?

The individual prices of these two upcoming expansions have not yet been officially announced. Nevertheless, their combined price can be calculated.

The provider states a saving of €42.97 compared with purchasing all contents individually. If we add this saving to the Season Pass price, we reach a total of €107.96.

The C2 and KT4D cost €39.98 together. This leaves exactly €67.98 for the Vienna DLC and Flexity Graz.

The only open question is how this amount will be divided. Based on the prices of previous CTS DLCs, two possible price combinations appear particularly plausible:

  • Vienna Bus & Tram: €49.99
  • Flexity Graz: €17.99

or:

  • Vienna Bus & Tram: €47.99
  • Flexity Graz: €19.99

Important note regarding the prices of Vienna and Flexity Graz

The individual prices of the Vienna Bus & Tram DLC and the Flexity Graz have not yet been officially announced. The figures mentioned in this article—approximately €47.99 to €49.99 for Vienna and €17.99 to €19.99 for the Flexity Graz—are therefore only our calculated estimates.

These estimates are based on the officially stated total saving of the Season Pass, the already known prices of the C2 and KT4D, and the previous price ranges of comparable CTS DLCs. The actual retail prices may later be different.

At present, the only figure that can be calculated from the official information is that Vienna and Flexity Graz would have to cost €67.98 combined, provided that the stated saving of €42.97 remains unchanged. How this amount will be divided between the two DLCs is not yet known.

Vienna is likely to be considerably more expensive than an ordinary vehicle DLC. After all, it is expected to include a real-world map with two tram routes, one bus route, and adapted C2, ULF A, and ULF B vehicles.

The Flexity Graz, by contrast, is likely to remain within the previous price range of individual trams. The already available Flexity Vienna, for example, costs €17.99. The Tatra KT4D costs €19.99.

When does the Season Pass actually become cheaper?

The clear dividing point is the Vienna DLC.

Anyone who only wants the C2 will pay less by purchasing it individually. The same applies to the KT4D or the Flexity Graz. Even all three vehicle DLCs together would cost approximately €55.07 to €56.97 after our discount, based on our assumed price range.

This means that the C2, KT4D, and Flexity Graz together would still be around five to seven euros cheaper than the discounted Season Pass. However, the exclusive C2K would not be included.

As soon as you want to purchase Vienna and at least one additional Season Pass DLC, the calculation changes.

Let us take Vienna and the C2 as an example. Depending on the later Vienna price, both contents would cost between €67.98 and €69.98 at their regular prices. With our discount, this would be approximately €64.58 to €66.48.

The complete Season Pass costs only €61.74 with the same discount. You therefore pay less and additionally receive the KT4D, the Flexity Graz, and the exclusive C2K.

Vienna and the Flexity Graz would also cost €67.98 together according to the official total calculation. With the five-percent discount, this would be €64.58. The complete Season Pass would therefore still be €2.84 cheaper.

For whom is the Season Pass not worthwhile?

Anyone who only wants one or two vehicle DLCs and has no interest in Vienna will pay less by purchasing them individually.

Anyone who has already purchased the C2, KT4D, and perhaps later the Flexity Graz individually and then only wants Vienna should also buy Vienna separately. Previously purchased DLCs are not deducted from the Season Pass price.

Sale offers can also change the calculation. The official saving of €42.97 refers to the regular individual prices outside of promotional discounts.

For whom is it cheaper?

For most players who intend to continue playing CTS 2026 over the long term and are particularly waiting for the Vienna DLC, the Season Pass will be the cheaper option.

Vienna together with only one other included DLC will probably already exceed the discounted Season Pass price. Anyone who wants Vienna, the C2, and the Tatra no longer needs to calculate for long: The individual prices will be considerably higher than the complete package.

The C2K is also included. This compact 10.5-metre version cannot be purchased separately and is available exclusively through the Season Pass. We therefore cannot assign it a normal individual retail price, but it still provides additional value for fans of the C2.

How much do you save with our discount?

Without a discount, the Season Pass costs €64.99. With the code SIMULATORENNEWS, you pay approximately €61.74.

If you were to buy all included DLCs separately later and also use the code for every purchase, the total price would be approximately €102.56.

The Season Pass therefore still saves approximately €40.82 compared with buying all individual DLCs at their discounted prices.

You can find the Season Pass here:

Anyone who is only missing one individual vehicle or another DLC can also use the code in the complete official CTS shop and save five percent there:

City Transport Simulator 2026 – Bus & Tram Simulator
Der realistische Bus- und Tram-Simulator für PC, PS5 & Xbox: Straßenbahn und Stadtbus fahren in einer lebendigen Stadt. Jetzt Edition wählen & losfahren!
citytransportsimulator.net

The answer is therefore quite clear: You do not need the pass if you only want the C2, Tatra, or Flexity individually. As soon as Vienna and at least one additional Season Pass item are on your shopping list, the complete package will probably become the cheaper option.

Which DLCs do you actually want to purchase in 2026—and have you already crossed the point at which the Season Pass becomes cheaper? Which contents do you need before the Season Pass becomes worthwhile for you?
