Checked August 18, 2026: Version 1.2 is live, and the next named major roadmap milestone is Version 1.3 later in 2026.

Roadmap quick answer checked August 24, 2026

Version 1.2 is the live gameplay baseline after its August 13 release.

Version 1.2.1 is the latest official hotfix after its August 20 release; it fixes corrupted Resume Run startup, Branching Boss Fruit timing, controller navigation, Steam Input, multiple gamepads, Alt-tabbing, and UI issues.

Use the full Version 1.2 patch page for current mechanics and the 1.2.1 page for the latest fixes; the teaser trail is now a historical archive.

A major Version 1.3 update remains planned for later in 2026, but exact scope and timing are not public.

GeForce NOW is already available as a platform option rather than a gameplay update.

Run checklist

  1. Use the Steam store Roadmap section and dated official posts as the first place to check future-update messaging.
  2. Version 1.2 went live on August 13 with four evolutions, six specialisations, two Genetics, saves, achievements, cosmetics, balance, controller, world, and bug-fix work.
  3. Use the full Version 1.2 patch page for current route advice; the teaser page remains only as a historical archive.
  4. A major Version 1.3 update remains planned for later in 2026, but exact scope and date are not yet public.
  5. GeForce NOW is already available; this is a platform milestone rather than a gameplay patch.
  6. A July 31 update reports nearly 600,000 players; keep this separate from the earlier 500,000 copies-sold milestone because the metrics differ.
  7. Use live patch notes for current behavior and future-update posts only for clearly attributed scope and timing signals.
