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 |
|---|---|
| 1 Apr 2022 | FreeHolder Alpha 8 Hotfix 5 Update |
| 31 May 2020 | FreeHolder Alpha 8 Hotfix 4 Patch notes |
| 22 Mar 2020 | FreeHolder Alpha 8 Hotfix 3 Patch notes |
| 13 Mar 2020 | FreeHolder Alpha 8 Hotfix 2 Patch notes |
| 8 Mar 2020 | FreeHolder Alpha 8 Hotfix 1 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.
