Four DLC expansions are planned for Gas Station Simulator in 2024

Drago Entertainment has announced that their 2021 surprise hit, Gas Station Simulator, will be receiving a whopping four DLC packs for 2024. They’ve even outlined what to expect in each pack.

You might wonder what significant additions can even be added to a game about running a gas station. To Drago’s credit, they’ve got some decent ideas for it. The first expansion they have planned is Tidal Wave, which transplants your gas station out of the barren Dust Bowl and onto a tropical island. Rather than just being an aesthetic change, they tout that the new location will be “governed by its own unique rules” and then specifically mention “God appeasement.” I guess don’t dump your used motor oil into the volcano’s crater.

The second planned DLC for Gas Station Simulator is Shady Deals, which allows you to partake in illegal behavior. Your uncle shows up to build a “pub” which hosts “unsavory characters.” Drago suggests that the expansion will allow you to buy and sell goods of questionable legality and allows you to partake in “avoiding taxes, brawls, or new interactions with the police.” The developer has also decided your gas station is sitting on an oil reservoir, so there will be illegal drilling.

While the next two expansions haven’t been announced, Drago says the one after Shady Deals will be announced in 4-6 weeks and will be similar to the Tidal Wave DLC. The last one will apparently be more “in-line” than their currently available Airstrip DLC and will focus on expanding your gas station.
