| 25282710 | Map Editor Update 20260913 |
From Steam’s client network, last checked . Builds before 21 Oct 2026, when we started watching, aren't listed. Patch notes are the developer’s update post from an hour before to a day after the build. Not every build gets one. How we count
| Posted | Update |
|---|---|
| 13 Sept 2026 | Map Editor Update 20260913 Patch notes |
| 5 Sept 2026 | Campaign Editor - Small Update Patch notes |
| 5 Sept 2026 | Outlive 25 Cloud and Workshop update Patch notes |
| 25 Aug 2026 | Campaign Editor Patch Patch notes |
| 22 Jul 2026 | Outlive 25 - Balancing Pack 20260718 Patch notes |
Steam keeps no record of past build numbers, so before 21 Oct 2026 a game’s update history comes from its own Steam news: posts tagged as patch notes, and untagged posts that plainly announce a patch or a released update. Older posts are still being read in, most played games first.

Separate Steam apps for test, staging and playtest versions of Outlive 25. They have no store page, so they aren’t counted as games or releases. Builds come from Steam’s client network, players from the Steam Web API every few hours. Steam gives no count for an app nobody can launch. How we count
