| When | Note | Build | Update size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nov 10, 2026 | Hivetide 1.3.1 - Upgrades screen and letterbox fixes Small patch with two fixes reported after 1.3.0. Fixed the Abilities row of the Upgrades screen running off the bottom of the screen. The Acid tower added a 12th row and it did not fit. Fixed the black bars flickering on screens that are not 16:9, in windowed and fullscreen. The bars are now drawn by the game itself. Thanks to ShadowsNight for both reports. You may need to restart your Steam clien |

| Nov 9, 2026 | Hivetide 1.3.0 - World 5: Origin World 5 is out. Five new stages below the core, a new insect, a new tower, and the campaign now ends with the Hive Mother. World 5: Origin 5 stages in living rock that breathes. The horde comes in tides: every 60 s it speeds up for 10 s. Each stage has its own twist: the lung pushes the horde back between tides (41), eggs on the path hatch workers if the horde reaches them first (42), roots close |

| Nov 7, 2026 | Hivetide 1.2.21: War mode, ranked matches and lighter swarms This update brings a new multiplayer mode, a big performance pass for huge swarms and a few fixes. You may need to restart your Steam client if the download is not immediately available. New mode: War New mode in Rooms: War. One map, one extractor for each player. Buy insects with gold and send them at your opponent while you defend your own extractor. Whoever takes down the other extractor wins. |

| Nov 4, 2026 | Hivetide 1.2.17: boss and tower fixes Two fixes from player reports since launch. Fixed The boss drawing could show up away from where the boss really was, so towers looked like they were shooting at nothing. It happened on the first boss fight after opening the game. Thanks _8SiX for the report. An error screen could pop up if you removed a tower while still dragging it, then moved the mouse. You may need to restart your Steam client |
