The overnight success of Drug Dealer Simulator: Schedule I continues to astound as it remains one of Steam's most-played games. Developer Tyler has now released the first major post-launch update, version 0.3.4, which is currently available for testing on the beta branch. You can find all the details on the game's Steam page, where Tyler announced that the update will stay in beta for a day or two before its full release. If you're eager to dive in, you can opt into the beta branch to test the new features.
While this beta version does not include all the features planned for the full release, Tyler assured fans that he's working diligently to enhance the game further. "This beta doesn't quite contain 100% of the features coming in the full release," Tyler explained. "I'll be adding a few more decorative objects tomorrow [April 8]. I wanted to get this beta out ASAP so that the new wall-mounted objects and pawn shop interface can be thoroughly trialled."

Schedule I exploded onto the scene as the top-selling game on Steam upon its launch, outpacing giants like Monster Hunter Wilds, GTA 5, and Marvel Rivals, thanks to its viral spread across social media, Twitch, and YouTube. In the game, you start as a small-time dealer in the gritty city of Hyland Point and work your way up to becoming a drug empire kingpin. You can expand your empire through properties, businesses, and employees, making it a comprehensive simulation of the criminal underworld.
Developed and published by the Australian indie developer TVGS, known simply as Tyler, he described the game's explosive launch as "amazing but pretty overwhelming." In a Reddit post, Tyler shared his astonishment: "I never expected this kind of response! At the moment I’m just trying to stay focused and get patches out ASAP. Also looking forward to getting started on content updates as soon as all major bugs are patched."
For those looking to master the game, IGN's Schedule 1 guide is an invaluable resource. It covers everything from the basics of mixing recipes and creating new blends to maximize profit, to how to access console commands, and the quickest way to jump into multiplayer co-op to conquer Hyland Point with friends.
