- EA Patch v0.6.6 - 30 July 2026
Greetings! This patch comes with various improvements that should bring some variety to playthroughs and also improve the first steps of being a goblin.

- Patch Notes v0.6.5 - 3 July 2026
Heyoo! This one is short and not that impactful gameplay-wise, but very important from the dev side. We've added a lightweight analytics to get a better feel for how players experience Goblins Die. Like which milestones people hit, where runs tend to end, and which areas could use some attention from us. Nothing personal here! No accounts, no individual tracking, just anonymized data across all players. If we see a bunch of goblins getting wrecked at the same boss, or players bailing around the same area, that's a signal for us to dig in and fix it. Basically: less guessing, more fixing the stuff that actually needs it. If you have any concerns, questions or anything we are happy to answer! Bug fixes:Invite Player button not showing for Host Have a fun weekend, goblins!

People can hop in and out and the difficulty scales automaticallyBug fixes / Other:Some requested enemy auto-attack timings were tweaked for easier parryingMap not showing sometimesStarting a new multiplayer game shows wrong mode descriptionMisc minor UI issuesSlight balancing to boss' DoT scaleNote:Due to the level streaming implementation / level split, some of the save files may have reset (like minor contributions are no longer built etc.). Sorry for the inconvenience.Next we'll shift into adding more replay value to the mix. So if…

People can hop in and out and the difficulty scales automaticallyTrimming the demo content = We have decided to trim out the demo content a bit due to it being around +4h long as it was. The Jail area has been excluded from the demo. It is still a beefy demo that provides easily multiple hours of gameplay to get a proper taste of what is coming.Bug fixes / Other:Some requested enemy auto-attack timings were tweaked for easier parryingMap not showing sometimesStarting a new multiplayer game shows wrong mode descriptionMisc minor UI issuesNo…
