- Full Version of Police Chief Simulator OUT NOW! - 17 September 2026
Howdy, Chiefs! The moment is finally here - the full version of Police Chief Simulator is NOW AVAILABLE! After months of development, testing, improvements, conversations with you, and dozens of devlogs, we can finally say it officially - Winston Springs is open! Today is a truly important moment for us. As a team, we want to thank everyone who stayed with us until this day - everyone who played the Prologue, tested the Demo, shared feedback, reported bugs, suggested ideas, and simply waited alongside us for this moment. But the release is only the beginning of our journey. Your opinions and feedback matter a lot to us, and we want to continue developing Police Chief Simulator together with our community. Your ideas and experiences will be incredibly valuable as we move forward. And don't forget about our shared world! If you own Car Dealer Simulator in your Steam library, your office p…
- FULL VERSION: Summary! - 17 September 2026
Howdy, Chiefs! It's finally here! The full version of Police Chief Simulator is launching today at 17:00 CEST on Steam! To celebrate the release, we've prepared a short summary of what you can expect to find in the full version. From managing the police station, officers, and prisoners, through basic foot and traffic stops, all the way to situations where an ordinary patrol can turn into a chase after a much more dangerous criminal. The full version takes you to Winston Springs, a city full of residents, offences, criminals, and situations that don't always go according to plan. You'll issue tickets, conduct inspections, investigate cases, apprehend suspects, manage your staff, and deal with prisoners. All of this takes place in a world that can surprise you even during what seems like an ordinary patrol. But the release is not the end of our journey. Quite the opposite - our list of id…
- SOON IN FULL VERSION: Dynamic Infractions! - 16 September 2026
Howdy, Chiefs! We're finally down to the very last day - only 1 day left until release! In our recent devlogs, we've talked about tickets, and today we're going back to the subject to show you just how much can happen around even the smallest offences. In Police Chief Simulator, our offence system generates incidents randomly, meaning you never quite know what you might encounter during your next patrol. It's your job to notice the offence and issue the appropriate ticket to the person responsible. Some pedestrians ignore the rules. Drivers do too. Sometimes it will be something as simple as crossing on a red light, while other times it might be a minor collision or another incident on the streets. But remember - every seemingly minor stop can turn into something much bigger. In the material above, you can see a woman crossing on a red light and receiving a ticket for it. It looks like…
