September 13 Update

September 13, 2026

Banking is rebuilt, two jobs get reworked, and new players get a proper welcome.

Banking

• Twelve named tiers: From Basic up to Palatial. The upgrade screen shows what the next tier gives you before you buy.
• Interest on your payslip: Interest now arrives with your paycheck.
• Fees: The withdrawal fee is gone.
• ATM hacks: A hacked ATM no longer lowers everyone's interest.
• Wallet limit: The auto-deposit no longer sweeps your cash mid-fight.
• Crypto: Trades at the ATM settle at the price you were shown.

City Worker

Repairs are now a skill check instead of a wait. Priority call-outs pay more, a shift bonus rewards staying on the job, and a new level ladder unlocks gear and a Foreman title.

Gold Digger

Revamped. Gold sells for more, the loot table is bigger with the odds shown in the menu, washers wait instead of wasting gold, upgrades are cheaper, and level-ups tell you what you unlocked.

• Pill press: One press starts a timed run.
• Meth lab: A new bonus step at the end of a cook.

• Selling off the job: Now possible, at a worse price.
