Schedule 1 developer Tyler confirmed that the community vote chose Shrooms as the next drug type, with the update set for mid-October to late November. That matters because Shrooms will introduce a distinct production process and new customers. The Halloween event is planned for October 31st.
Vote totals were posted alongside the announcement: Shrooms earned over 269,000 votes, drivers had about 139,000, and fishing received roughly 85,000. Votes tallied at over 269,000 for Shrooms, 139,000 for drivers, and 85,000 for fishing, numbers that clearly shaped the community choice and the update’s planned content roadmap. The developer listed several concrete additions tied to Shrooms.
- A new supplier.
- New shrooms-specific production equipment and tools.
- Some new multi-use production equipment, which can be used for shrooms as well as some of the existing drugs.
- New effects and ingredients.
- New customers.
Tyler said the release window is intentionally broad to avoid repeated delays and to leave room for the Halloween drop, and he plans to work on both updates after returning home. “I have learnt my lesson from the cartel update lol” was included as a short aside about scheduling and deadlines. Before the Shrooms update arrives, a patch will be released to address several bugs from the cartel update and to apply community-suggested tweaks. The developer is flying back to Australia next week and will begin work on the two updates immediately.
Non-winning vote choices will return in future community polls, so options that lost this round are not gone for good. The team thanked participants and asked for ongoing feedback as development continues.
