It's time to change the world.

— Warden

An Update is a new version of Deadlock's build that adjusts or adds content, such as balance changes, bugfixes, and occasionally new Heroes, Items, or game modes. It has been 225 days since the last major update.

Deadlock's official patch notes can be accessed in the official forums, as well as on the Steam page, and in-game in the "News" menu accessible in the main Hideout area with the N key or by opening the Hideout's computer terminal. This page lists all the official updates, as well as minor undocumented changes that were announced by Yoshi or other developers in the official Deadlock Discord, or identified by reviewing GitHub diffs from the GameTracking-Deadlock repository maintained by SteamDB. Update times are based on the Pacific Standard Time zone (PST) of Valve Corporation's headquarters in Bellevue, Washington.

From August 1, 2024, to December 6, 2024, the game followed a schedule in which a major update was released once every two weeks. On January 8, 2025, it was announced that this schedule was dropped in favor of having more time between major updates to allow for better testing and additional internal development time.

Deadlock is currently in a closed beta state.
