Happy First Anniversary!
Car Dealer Simulator Patch Notes — May 29, 2026
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello Car Dealers!
One year ago, we released Car Dealer Simulator. Since then, the project has grown far beyond anything we could have imagined - and it's all thanks to you!
Over the past twelve months, Car Dealer Simulator received Steam Deck Verification, launched on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, and became available on additional platforms including NVIDIA GeForce NOW and the Microsoft Store.
The numbers are impressive, but they don't truly capture what this year has meant to us.
We would like to thank the more than 500,000 players who purchased Car Dealer Simulator and supported us from day one. Seeing over 320,000 people add the game to their wishlist gives us even more motivation to continue improving the game and delivering new updates. We hope many of you will soon join our community as well!
We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the hundreds of content creators who shared Car Dealer Simulator on YouTube, TikTok, Twitch, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Your videos, livestreams, and long-running series have been incredible to watch and a huge source of motivation for our team.
Special thanks also go to our amazing Discord moderators for their tremendous support in communicating with players, highlighting community-reported issues, and helping organize feedback and suggestions for the future development of the game.
It has been an incredibly busy year, but we believe this is only the beginning of our journey together.
Thank you for an amazing first year ♥
