Summary
- Schedule 1's beta v0.3.4 brings new features like wall-mounted shelves and a Pawn Shop, but more updates are still on the way.
- Join the open beta by changing the game branch on Steam, granting early access to all current and upcoming Schedule 1 updates.
- Expect more cosmetic items, money-making opportunities, and bug fixes in patch v0.3.4, as Schedule 1 aims for even bigger updates.
Schedule 1' s developer has announced the beta test of version 0.3.4, which he calls the game's "first proper update." The patch was initially scheduled to go live on April 5, but the developer postponed it to April 7 to clear up some issues. Nonetheless, the wait is over, and players can now opt into Schedule 1' s version 0.3.4 beta to access the new content early.
One of the new features teased for Schedule 1 was the wall-mounted shelves, which are now available in the test. Some additional decorative objects are also expected to be added before beta testing wraps up. However, Tyler, the game's solo developer, has clarified that version 0.3.4 is not 100% complete, with some features set to be available in the full release. He also noted that all forthcoming patches will be issued in the beta version to ensure the final releases are as seamless as possible. The good news is that the game will follow an open beta format, allowing all players to join the test server and help identify bugs and glitches before each patch's official launch.
Schedule 1's Copyright Infringement Accuser is Getting Review Bombed on Steam
Schedule 1 competitor Drug Dealer Simulator and its sequel see lots of recent negative reviews following an IP infringement accusation.
Schedule 1' s v0.3.4 beta will end on April 9, 2025, at 1:00 AM EDT. Until then, players who change the game branch on Steam to "beta" will be able to download the new content and participate in the test. The quickest way to join Schedule 1' s beta test is to right-click on the game's card on Steam, select Properties, and, under the "BETAS" tab, change the branch to beta test. Activating the option will grant early access to all current and upcoming updates of Schedule 1, with the tradeoff being that beta testers may encounter more crashes and glitches.
The recent patch introduces a wide array of cosmetic items and provides new ways to make money for the game's "hardworking" criminals. Starting with v0.3.4, Schedule 1 players can earn money by selling anything (excluding their products) to Mick at the new Pawn Shop. The update also fixes some bugs, including the delivery destination dropdown overflowing outside of the phone screen and non-host clients sometimes not receiving "on day pass" and "on week pass" events.
Given the recent success of Schedule 1 as one of Steam's top crime games, it's safe to say that patch v.0.3.4 is just the start of much larger updates. The game is expected to break even more records by the time it exits early access, potentially joining the ranks of the most successful solo-developed games alongside well-known titles like Stardew Valley.
