Arcade Empire Tycoon Patch Notes — June 10, 2025
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
The new update introduces a new type of Employee, along with some changes:
Cleaners
New employees have arrived at your Arcade: the Cleaners! They are responsible for keeping the environment clean, patrolling the place and collecting any trash left by customers.
Trash now appears dynamically based on the number of customers in the Arcade. The more crowded it is, the higher the chance someone will litter! To reduce this chance, place trash cans strategically around the map.

Cleanliness Bonus
A new modifier has been added to the popularity panel: the Cleanliness Bonus. Keeping your Arcade spotless grants up to +5% extra popularity! But beware: for each trash item on the ground, this bonus decreases by 2%, and can even become negative if neglected.
Don't let a mess ruin your reputation!

Cleaners are not available in the Demo or tutorial.
Other changes
Fixed issue with window mode.
Tutorial starting budget changed to $6,000.
