Simteract has announced the first-ever realistic ride-hailing simulator called Urban Venture, which lets you become a professional driver on the streets of Barcelona, managing your own transportation company.
Players will immediately get into the action as they experience the pulse of a buzzing metropolis with all the good and bad stuff that happens in it. This includes traffic jams, harsh weather, bumpy roads, impatient passengers, and the occasional accident.
Watch the trailer below of Urban Venture:
Urban Venture will task players to drive clients, hire personnel, maintain a fleet of cars and manage the business to build their transportation empire. In Urban Venture, you assume the role of a driver who starts working in the ride-hailing industry. At the onset, you only have one cheap car and can take up jobs for existing companies to earn more money and experience. You can open your own company and compete with others for market share in the long run.
The game is set in the famous city of Barcelona with a 1:1 recreation of the city. As the second-largest city in Spain, the game features a playable area of at least 20 km2, with recreated parts of the real city and over 200 of its most famous landmarks, historical buildings, parks, and sculptures.
As a sandbox game, you can choose how you want to play Urban Venture. You can decide you just want to be a modern-day taxi driver to earn money and XP, or you can choose a more challenging option that the city has to offer. You can also free drive to explore the city and roam around in the city without any set destination.
