The next Schedule 1 update is just around the corner, and players are eagerly awaiting new content. The sole developer, Tyler, has teased fans about the inclusion of additional shops and aesthetically pleasing decorations in this release, which promises to bring fresh excitement to the game.
Launched on March 24, Schedule 1 has made an impressive mark in the gaming community, quickly amassing over 130,000 concurrent players within its initial two days.

Projected Release Date for the Next Update
Next update is almost ready to go – I’m hoping to get it on the beta branch tonight (~12 hours from now), and fully released Monday. The update includes a boutique store, a pawnshop, wall decorations, and some other fancy stuff. Stay tuned! — Tyler – Schedule I (@Tyler_TVGS) April 6, 2025
Sorry everyone, v0.3.4 open beta is taking a bit longer than expected. Gonna end up releasing it first thing tomorrow. I could probably get it done tonight, but I don’t wanna accidentally release it with some glaring issue because I was half asleep🥴 — Tyler – Schedule I (@Tyler_TVGS) April 6, 2025
- Expected release: Monday, April 7 (Tentatively)
This upcoming update will introduce two new shops: a Boutique Store and a Pawn Shop, enabling players with novel opportunities for earning in-game currency. Moreover, the update is set to feature fresh wall decorations. While Tyler initially aimed to roll out an open beta for testing the new content the day prior, he opted to forgo this in order to prioritize quality and avoid any significant issues.
In addition to these enhancements, Tyler previously announced a feature that will allow players to utilize wall-mounted storage options, which would enhance gameplay by optimizing item management. Although specifics on this feature remain limited, eagerly anticipated feedback suggests this addition could significantly elevate the user experience, as many players look forward to improved resource handling.
For those anxiously tracking the game’s progress, news of the forthcoming update may alleviate concerns about Schedule 1’s ongoing development. The game is currently under scrutiny for copyright infringement, stemming from a claim by Movie Games S.A., the producer of the Drug Dealer Simulator franchise, which has raised eyebrows among the community. While Tyler has yet to address these legal claims publicly, the situation has indeed sparked discussions among fans regarding the future trajectory of Schedule 1.
