Choose your trip
Compare the regular Prison Bus journey with Hardcore and Quick, using the developer’s Update 1 mode descriptions.

Three ways to take the road
Start with the regular trip to learn the objectives. Update 1 introduced Hardcore for players with a win, and Quick for a shorter map.
Mode comparison
| Mode | Entry | Main difference | Published reward information |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular trip | Base experience | The full repair, pickup, and survival loop | Not published |
| Hardcore | A previous win | Harder enemies; no free revives | An exclusive Armoured Bus skin for winners |
| Quick | R$ 99 per round, or Tokens | Half the road; weaker enemies | Not published |
Which should you choose?
For a first run, our recommendation is to learn the regular trip before changing the rules. Choose Hardcore when you already know the objectives and want the added challenge. Consider Quick when route length is the main concern.
The Quick Mode store listing describes it as "half the road, weaker enemies". It does not say whether rewards differ or how long a run takes.
Version note
The current official page is titled UPD2; see update notes. Its description focuses on cosmetics and a season pass, rather than repeating every Update 1 mode rule. This table preserves that historical context instead of presenting an untested current-session ruleset.
