- Patch 0.3.0 - The Cabinet takes Action - 11 February 2026
Thanks to everyone for participating in Mr. President’s Early Access! Our first patch includes new features, and a bunch of bug fixes.

With this patch, you’ll be getting at least 10 more player actions to take in each year of your Presidency which should help you contend better with the global situation. We’ve also continued to burn down the bug backlog and we really appreciate everyone who has submitted a bug report via the Steam forums or through Discord. Additionally, we’ve seen reports of some game crashes which are a bit harder to investigate through those channels, so we’ve integrated a crash reporting client into the game. Now if your game crashes, we will get that information directly and should be able to get fixes for those kinds of…
