Driving Empire New Update: Schedule, Times & Next Countdown
New Update is Driving Empire’s recurring content drop — the moment Voldex’s sprawling open-world driving game gets a fresh batch of cars, map changes, and seasonal additions dropped in at once. Players buy, race, and role-play across one of Roblox’s largest driving maps, and New Update is the beat that keeps the roads changing. Driving Empire is one of the platform’s mainstay driving titles, with about 3,300,000,000 visits, about 32,000,000 favorites, and about 20,000 people out on the roads at any given moment.
Rather than arriving at random, New Update lands on a dependable rhythm — to be announced between drops — and the developer rolls it out across two set afternoon windows. The schedule below has the full details.

How often New Update runs
New Update arrives to be announced, and when it does the developer has settled into two familiar afternoon windows. Both are given here in Eastern Time, and the FAQ further down breaks the Friday slot out across the major world time zones so players everywhere can see where it lands.
- Thursdays, 1:10 PM ET
- Fridays, 1:00 PM ET
Spreading the release across two afternoons gives the game’s worldwide audience more than one convenient chance to jump in on launch day. A single fixed hour would fall in the middle of the night for large parts of the globe, so the Thursday and Friday slots hand players in different regions a reachable window. Whichever one suits your day, the content is identical.
What happens in a New Update
Every New Update folds a batch of fresh material into Driving Empire. The exact contents shift from drop to drop, but a release usually brings:
- New vehicles for the dealerships — the most recent round leaned into American classics, adding a set of four Chevrolet icons to the lineup
- Map additions, reworked areas, or seasonal touches to drive through
- Limited or themed extras tied to whatever the developer has been teasing that cycle
Teasers ahead of a drop tend to hint at the theme without spelling out every car, so the full lineup becomes clear when the update goes live. Because another one always follows on the next cycle, there is more coming even if a given release doesn’t grab you.
Tips for catching it
- Pick whichever of the two windows lands at a sensible hour for you — the Thursday and Friday slots exist so you have options.
- Set a reminder a few minutes ahead of your chosen window; launch-day servers fill fast as players pile in for the new cars.
- Miss it entirely? There’s no rush — another New Update comes around on the next cycle.
How it fits the game’s rhythm
New Update sits alongside the game’s other recurring drops, most visibly New Limited. Look back over recent releases and the pattern is clear: manufacturer-themed packs built around Porsche, Lamborghini, and Volvo have all had their turn, each cycle tending to spotlight a marque or a theme. New Update is the anchor of that routine — a standing reason to log back in, check the dealerships, and see what’s been added since the last drop. For a game this size, that steady drumbeat is a big part of why the player base stays engaged year-round.
