Editing UpdatesGive feedback

An '''Update''' is a new version of the build of a game that adds and adjusts content. Said content typically includes new or adjusted game modes, balance changes, and bug fixes. ''[[Deadlock]]'' gets updated several times a week and not all changes are recorded in patch notes. This page only lists changes mentioned on the [https://forums.playdeadlock.com Official Deadlock forum] patch notes, and some notable unlisted changes discovered by players. Update times are based on the Pacific Standard Time zone (PST) of [https://www.valvesoftware.com/ Valve Corporation's] headquarters in Bellevue, Washington.

''Deadlock'' is currently in a [[Early Development Build|closed beta]] state.<ref>Listed as ''"Deadlock - Closed Beta Access"'' under Steam user licenses</ref>

From August 1 2024 to December 6, the game had a schedule where a major update was released once every 2 weeks, usually on a Thursday. On January 8 2025 it was announced that this schedule was dropped in favor of having more time between major updates, for better testing and more internal development time.
