Steam App news for 4450620 and the official Discord are primary. This wiki paraphrases — confirm the in-client version string before filing a report.
Patch 1.05 is a stability / accessibility hotfix after launch week — not a new biome drop.
| Area | Change | Who cares |
|---|---|---|
| Localization | Restored missing translation strings | Non-English UI players |
| Multiplayer | Friends-only lobby join bug fixed | Private co-op groups |
| Content | No new Deep Layer / Outpost systems claimed | Outpost |
Player count stays solo or up to four. The 1.05 fix is about *connecting* under friends-only privacy — not changing the co-op role loop.

Patch 1.06 (August 11, 2026) is a stability / security hotfix after launch week.
Patch 1.07 (~August 14, 2026) is the first post-launch multiplayer UX drop — still solo or up to four.

Patch 1.07 (~August 14, 2026) adds a public server browser, password-protected hosts, extra host settings, and friends-of-friends joins. 1.06 (August 11) fixed Quill’s Outpost fire and legendary gumballs. Steam 1.0 launched August 7, 2026.
No — still solo or up to four. The patch is about finding and locking a lobby, not a new player cap.
