Mixing new substances and expanding your business in Schedule I is entertaining enough on your own. But building a successful empire is easier with friends. TVGS has made sure we can all work together by including multiplayer in this simulator game. So, if you’re ready to reach new heights, here’s everything you need to know about playing co-op in Schedule 1.
Setting up a multiplayer lobby is a quick and easy process in Schedule 1, so you can concentrate on the important things like developing your Hyland Point empire.
The game is in Early Access as of March 24th, 2025, but a cleverly named demo version, called Free Sample, is also available to try. It’s possible to play co-op in the demo and the Early Access version of the game.
In both the demo and Early Access version of Schedule 1, lobbies are capped at a maximum of 4 players.
If you’re ready to become a kingpin with your crew, here are the steps you need to follow:
- Load up Steam and launch Schedule 1
- From the main menu, look to the top right corner of the screen to see Lobby
- Press the + button, and a pop-up box will appear saying “Choose Friend to Invite”
- Search for your friend’s Steam ID and then add them to the Lobby
As well as the above method, if you want to invite a friend while you’re already deep in the mixing process, all you have to do is pause the game. You’ll see the same boxes in the top right corner of the screen when the game is paused, allowing you to invite friends into your lobby for backup.
This does not apply to the Early Access version of the game!
