List of all updates in chronological order as well as what they added/changed at the bottom.

Here are the statistics: an average of 3.7 updates per year, and keeping at the current average rate, by the 10th anniversary in November 2026 there could be more 7/8 updates to come. February/March and June/July seem to be guaranteed months for big updates for the last 4 years.

I find it hard to believe that after 8 years of regular updating they’d just stop short of a 10th anniversary, so this probability is extremely likely in my opinion. It could also coincide with the release of Light No Fire and a passing of the torch for the team.

Also worth mentioning that there has been 5 planet generation overhauls (in bold) some greater than others, the last one being Origins in 2020. I could see another generation update being planned for v5.0 (later this year?), personally.
