Chop A Forest
Chop A Forest Events Schedule: Update 1 Countdown and What’s Next
Chop A Forest, WCT Capital’s tree-felling money-grind on Roblox, has two in-game events running side by side this week. The bigger of the two, Update 1, is a new-machine drop that stays live through October 24; the other, Chapter 2, opens up a desert area and closes a day earlier. As of October 22, the experience is pulling about 25,000 players into its servers at once, which keeps it among the busier logging sims on the platform.
Update 1 is far and away the headline event, with about 19,000 players marking it as interested against Chapter 2’s about 220. If you only have time for one, the new-machine drop is where the crowd is; the desert update reads more like a side addition this round.
We keep this page current as Chop A Forest’s schedule changes. The schedule below shows the exact start and end times for each event, and the sections under it explain what every drop adds and why it matters.

Current and upcoming events
Update 1 — the New Machine drop (live)
Update 1 is the event most Chop A Forest players are watching. It went live at 3:00 PM ET on October 17 (12:00 PM PT, 8:00 PM BST in the UK) and runs through the afternoon of October 24, giving it a full week on the calendar. At this point there is about a day left before it closes. The update centers on a new machine, which fits the game’s core loop of upgrading your gear to fell trees faster and bank more coins — exactly the kind of addition the headline interest count reflects.
Chapter 2 — the desert update (live)
Chapter 2 opens a desert area for players to work through. It started at 1:00 PM ET on October 19 (10:00 AM PT, 6:00 PM BST) and is the shorter of the two windows, wrapping up on October 23 — a day before Update 1. Its interested count is a small fraction of the New Machine turnout, so it sits as a secondary drop rather than the week’s main attraction. There is less than a day left to jump in before it ends.
Both events are new-content additions rather than limited-time modes, and their names — Update 1 and Chapter 2 — point to WCT Capital building out a numbered series of updates. No dated follow-up is on the calendar yet, so the timing of the next one has not been announced.
