Version 2026.6
23 days agoThis update focuses on Quality of Life refinements of the systems introduced in recent updates, improving everyday gameplay, and making progression feel more natural.
* Smarter Goals
Goals should now do a much better job of guiding you toward useful next steps:
- Goal selection now takes the current state of your game into account and prioritizes goals that make sense for what you can do next.
- The available Goal pool has been expanded for more variety.
- The Goals button now shows a notification badge when new Goals are waiting for you.
* Major Viewership Rebalancing
Viewership has received a substantial balancing pass to make audience numbers and competition between shows behave more realistically and consistently throughout the game.
* Improved Episode Production
The Episode Production screen now has a new floating production panel.
Your current Profit/Loss and the Start Production button remain visible while you scroll through the production settings, so you can always see the financial result of your choices and start production without scrolling back to the bottom.
* Briefing Room Improvements
The Briefing Room has been reorganized to make it easier to scan and use:
- Action Slots are now collected into a single group.
- Action rows now use a consistent height for a cleaner and more predictable layout.
* Game Menu Refinements
The Game Menu has received another round of layout and usability improvements to make its options clearer and easier to navigate.
* CEO Names Are Back
You can once again give your CEO a name when setting up or editing your company.
* Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the End Week Events could remain open during End Week if the details of an aired episode were currently being shown.
- Fixed an issue where competing networks’ programming could show the same 9:00–9:30 time slot twice during a 60-minute show, instead of correctly showing 9:00–9:30 and 9:30–10:00.
- Various smaller interface and gameplay refinements.
