2.1.0 QoL Update & Console/Mobile Release

Hi everyone,

Old Market Simulator will be turning two years old on May 22, 2026, and it’s only the beginning of its journey. Over the past few months, we’ve been working hard to eliminate bugs and issues, while also expanding the game to new platforms so more players can join and enjoy our game together.

We’re excited for you to experience our upcoming update and share it with an even larger community.

Console & Mobile Release - April 27, 2026

We’re happy to announce that Old Market Simulator will be available on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 starting April 27, 2026.

Cross-play between consoles will be supported at launch. We will also be testing cross-play functionality between PC and consoles in beta, and if everything runs smoothly, it will be enabled for PC as well.

In addition, the mobile version of Old Market Simulator will launch on the App Store and Google Play soon after the console release.

Performance Improvements & Network Fixes

Based on community feedback regarding performance issues, we’ve introduced a new setting called Boxed Storage in the Settings menu which is enabled by default. This significantly improves performance, especially in saves with large numbers of items. We’ve also optimized maps to provide a smoother overall experience.

We also received reports of players being unable to join hosts or getting stuck on loading screens due to network timeouts caused by large item synchronization. To address this, we’ve added a chunked synchronization feature, which improves connection stability and allows clients to join hosts more reliably.

Professional Translations

To ensure players around the world can enjoy the game as intended, we’ve collaborated with professional translators to add support for: French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Russian.

UI Improvements

Following your feedback on in-game icons, we’ve worked with a professional artist to redesign our icons. The new hand-crafted visuals provide a cleaner and more polished look. Also, for a cleaner look, we changed the positions of the inventory slot and control hints.

Resource Chest

We know many of you love collecting and stacking resources, but it can get messy! To help you stay organized, we’ve introduced the Resource Chest, available for purchase in the Engineer’s Store.

• Stores a single resource type

• Holds up to 50 items per chest

• Can be placed in terrains, workshops, cellars, and more

We hope this addition makes organizing your world much easier and more enjoyable.

Other

• Controller Support Improvements: We’ve improved controller support, refined overall navigation, and added vibration feedback for a better experience.

• Inventory Slot Increase: The Big Bag now provides 9 inventory slots, making it easier to stack your items.
