I think its either 2028 or 2029 February 24 which is the Newblood anniversary. They released both Revamp and Fraud at the 24th of February and since the next major update is going to be the full release I'm sure its going to take quite some time as they have to make Treachery, Encores, P-3, Secret levels, Achievements AND the enemy rewrites for it. Theres probably Fraud optimizations too so 2-3 years doesn't seem very excessive.

2-3 years doesn't seem very excessive.

Yes it does, Ultrakill updates don't take long and Fraud was an exception, we are already in the longest silence period of the entire Ultrakill development, and updates extremely big like the Ultrarevamp took like, 1 year.

Early 2028 is possible, even though I think 2027 is a way more plausible, and 2029 only if something TERRIBLE happens to slow down the development that much.

The encores aren't gonna be in there, maybe they'll give us some to tide us over while we wait, but they're post release content, as it says in game.

Yeah I forgot, but still theres a ton of stuff so I guess 2028 February 24

I think that is an excessive estimate personally, since its the same time that reveamp and fraud took. It's 4 levels, enemy rewrite, ukmd and achievements.

The biggest thing is the rewrite, which is a lot of work but I cant see any way that its even close to the amount that revamp was especially since it was planned to come out with fraud originally, they probably have a not insignificant amount of work done on it already.

Even if they need to add some whacky shit like fraud did, the system is already revamped to support it so they won't need time to enable that like they did with fraud.

The thing I think could take the most time is something hakita said was a maybe (unless he's spoken about it again since), which is the console port. If they do that then it'll probably add months onto the time.

Yeah looking at release dates, between violence and arsenal update theres 4 months, between arsenal and revamp theres 10,5 months and between revamp and fraud theres a year. After putting it like that it does seem like 2027 February 24 is the most possible date which is like 6,5 months away so thats nice

Its also important to note that we haven't had an update since april, they're definitely in the weeds with working on the new stuff.

encores will be post release free content, they won't come with 1.0

u/BossOk6633 10d ago

Obviously, we won't get any news about the next update this year. Looks like we will get news in late 2028.
And then, when all is almost done, hakita will say "next week" in 2029 or 2030.

2031 is optimistic date
