Update 1 patch notes

Update 1 went live on 23 October 2026 at 21:00 UTC and added codes, the Index, events, Titans, Space Trials, and the Perfect trait.

When it shipped

Update 1 was released on 23 October 2026 at 21:00 UTC. The notes were posted for the official community and written up the next day. The Roblox experience record later shows an updated time of 25 October 2026 at 15:03 UTC. That field is a publish timestamp. No changelog for it was published alongside Update 1, so do not treat 25 October as a second named patch.

A code roundup dated 20 October, before this update, reported no Codes menu. That was true of the earlier client. It does not expire the codes added with this patch.
