The highly anticipated 0.3.4 update for Schedule I, the viral hit drug dealer simulator, has been released by developer Tyler after a brief testing phase. The update, detailed in the Steam patch notes, marks the first major content expansion since the game's explosive launch into early access on Steam on March 24.

In a statement on Steam, Tyler expressed his apologies for the delay in the update's release, stating, "I'm still ironing out the update/testing process." He reassured players that future updates would be smoother and more timely, with plans to shift to larger monthly updates starting next month.

Looking ahead, Tyler outlined his priorities for the game, which include addressing remaining bugs such as ensuring consistent employee performance, preventing save game corruption, and reducing disconnections and loading issues in multiplayer. Additionally, he aims to enhance optimization and achieve Steam Deck verification, using this as a benchmark for performance.

Schedule I soared to the top of Steam's sales charts upon its launch, outpacing major titles like Monster Hunter Wilds, GTA 5, and Marvel Rivals, fueled by its viral spread across social media, Twitch, and YouTube. In the game, players start as small-time dealers and work their way up to becoming kingpins, managing the production and distribution of various drugs in the gritty city of Hyland Point. Expansion of the empire includes acquiring properties, businesses, and hiring employees.

Developed and published by TVGS, the Australian indie developer Tyler, who goes by the moniker, described the game's launch as "amazing but pretty overwhelming." In a reddit post, Tyler shared his surprise at the game's reception, saying, "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."
