Schedule I continues rolling out updates after its explosive Steam debut, with Patch 5 elevating the drug empire simulator to version 0.3.3f14.
While this update delivers crucial gameplay refinements, players are particularly excited about the developer's announcement of Schedule I's first major content expansion arriving this weekend.
Currently Steam's top-selling title, Schedule I has outperformed industry giants like Monster Hunter Wilds and GTA 5 following its viral spread across social platforms. Players build criminal enterprises from street-level dealing to full-scale narcotics distribution throughout the gritty urban landscape of Hyland Point, acquiring properties, hiring staff, and expanding operations.
Developed solo by Australian indie creator Tyler under TVGS, the game's unexpected success has been described as "incredible yet overwhelming" by its creator.
"I never anticipated this level of response!" Tyler shared on Reddit. "My current focus is stabilizing the game with rapid patches before shifting to content expansion once critical bugs are resolved."
Patch 5 specifically addresses employee AI glitches, multiplayer synchronization issues, and casino gameplay bugs while introducing improved pathfinding systems to reduce crashes.
