Schedule 1 developer TVGS has given fans their very first look at the game's highly anticipated Cartel update, which looks set to add a brand-new property, cartel members, and more. Schedule 1 fans were given the opportunity to vote between three different updates earlier this year, with the Cartel update racking up the majority of player votes. As promised, TVGS is now hard at work on the update and has given fans an exclusive sneak peek.
Ever since its monumental early access launch earlier this year, Schedule 1's sole developer has continued releasing a steady stream of smaller content updates. The most recent addition came just a few weeks ago, as the game's v0.3.6f6 patch not only made a handful of bug fixes and improvements, but also added an off-road skateboard for players to purchase. This was just the latest item or feature to be added to the game in its first four months, but now developer TVGS is in the process of developing Schedule 1's first major content patch, the Cartel update.

If the official Schedule 1 roadmap is anything to go by, players have an awful lot to look forward to over the coming weeks and months.
Posts 23After Schedule 1 players voted for the game's next update to focus solely on the cartel, TVGS announced that the patch was targeting a late July release. With only two weeks left in the month, fans have now been given their first official look at the big update. As seen in the Reddit post below, which has taken images directly from the Schedule 1 Discord, it looks like the game's Cartel update will finally be making use of the Manor that has been in-game since launch. The first-look images also show fans what the rival Cartel is going to look like in-game, as the NPCs will seemingly be rocking green as their gang color of choice.

The images don't give too much away, but they do seem to confirm that the Manor will finally be available to purchase. Shortly after the game's release in March, a Schedule 1 player discovered the new property after clipping underneath the building and discovering a "for sale" sign, which many speculated was placed for use in a future update. While it looks like the property will soon be available in-game, some fans have already been using the building to expand their drug empire thanks to various mods, which make the building accessible and usable.
CloseTVGS is currently targeting a late July release window for the patch, but there's a chance it could always slip into early August. Regardless, it's going to come at a great time for fans, as Schedule 1 was recently relisted in Australia. The hit indie game was removed from sale in the country back in May, and while many believed it had been banned due to its drug-related themes, TVGS confirmed that it simply needed an age rating in the country. After two months of waiting, Schedule 1 was finally relisted earlier this month.
