One year in Early Access. A completely different game.

One year ago, we opened the doors of a small bank and invited you in. Today, that bank has grown into something we could not have imagined on launch day. Every piece of feedback, every review, and every hour you played shaped what Bank Simulator is right now.

This is a celebration of that journey. From launch day to now, here is everything that changed.

01 / Visuals and Performance

The game looks and runs better than it ever has. The bank interior was redesigned from the ground up, floors were rebuilt, and performance improvements were shipped to make every session smoother. What you played on day one and what you play today are worlds apart.

02 / Full UI/UX Redesign

Almost every screen in the game was rebuilt. The main menu, pause menu, Manager Monitor, Loan Monitor, and more all received a complete overhaul. Cleaner, more informative, and built to keep you in control at every moment.

03 / The Wall Street Update

The biggest update since launch. A brand new CEO Room, a completely rebuilt bond system with deeper risk mechanics, and the most strategic layer the game has ever offered. The Wall Street update changed what it means to run your bank at the top level.

04 / ATM Car

Deploy ATMs across the city with the armored car. Expand your banking network beyond your branch and generate passive income from every corner of the map.

05 / Bigger Map

The city grew. A larger, more interactive map gives you more locations to reach and more decisions to make about where your bank expands next.

06 / Tablet

A new in-game tablet puts key management tools at your fingertips without breaking your workflow. Quick access, right when you need it.

07 / Cleaning Tools

Keep your bank looking the part. New cleaning tools let you maintain the space and hold the standards your clients expect from a professional institution.

08 / Daily Tasks and Gifts

Log in every day for fresh objectives and rewards. Small goals that give you something to chase every session.

09 / Unlock Tree

A structured progression system that rewards smart play. Unlock new features, upgrades, and capabilities as your bank grows.

10 / Interview Before Hire

Candidates now sit across from you. Read between the lines, weigh their salary ask against their skill level, and build a team you actually chose.

11 / Bank Interior Redesign

New floor options and interior updates let you build a space that feels like yours. Your bank, your vision.

12 / Polish and Hungarian Languages

Two new languages added: Polish and Hungarian. Bank Simulator is now more accessible to players across Europe.

13 / Smarter Customers with Chat System

Customers now come with more varied cases and sharper behaviour. A new chat system makes every interaction feel more alive, and every decision feel more consequential.

14 / Sell Items

Offload furniture and items you no longer need. Another layer of financial decision-making built right into your day.

15 / Security Cards

Access to restricted areas now requires the right credentials. Security cards control entry to the bank door and vault, adding a layer of realism and immersion to how your bank actually operates day to day.

A Word From the Team

When we launched Bank Simulator in Early Access, we said full release would come after roughly one year. That date is here, and we are not hitting it.

Not because we have been slow. Look at everything above and you will see that is not the case. But because we have a clear vision of what Bank Simulator should be at full launch, and we are not willing to ship something that falls short of it. There is a difference between a game that is finished and a game that is truly ready. We want to give you the second one.

We want every system to feel polished. Every feature to feel intentional. Every hour you spend to feel worth it. That takes the time it takes. Additionally, we are working hard on the next update, which will make the game something truly different. Stay tuned!

Thank you for being here from the beginning. Thank you for your patience, your feedback, and your trust. The best version of Bank Simulator is still ahead, and we are building it for you.
