11Overview22Outbound has gone through several development phases since its successful Kickstarter campaign in August 2024. The development history includes a closed alpha for backers, a beta period that introduced a second biome, and the full public release. This page documents every publicly known version and the changes each one introduced.55Patch notes from the studio appear in the in-game news feed shown on the title screen and in the news feed on the game's store page; the table below summarizes the launch and post-launch patches. Not every internal build has public notes, so gaps between version numbers (for example, from v0.5.15 to v0.7.6) reflect periods of internal development without public patch releases.77Development Phases99VersionDateHighlightsv1.0.0May 11, 2026Public launch on PC (Steam, Epic Games Store) and Xbox Series X|S.

The launch day article documents the launch waves in detail.108108Post-Launch Patches110110Square Glade publishes live patch notes through the in-game news feed and the game's store-page announcements. Post-launch hotfix entries are added to this article as they are publicly published. As of this article's most recent update, post-launch patches 1.0.2-800 through 1.0.13 are detailed in the table above; the first week of patches focused on multiplayer stability, dog-companion ergonomics, and quality-of-life additions, the second week shipped the larger 1.0.8 balance pass plus targeted hotfixes, and 1.0.10 added the Download Voucher and Bottle Cap Wallet system that removes weight and auto-deposit behavior for those currency items, and the third week reworked ladders and expanded home customization in 1.0.12. The frequently asked questions article tracks live known issues.112112V1.0.8 (May 18, 2026)114114The first major balance pass after launch responded to community feedback that early-game travel felt slow and that lumber, fiber, and ore ran short on the opening map. It is the largest post-launch patch so far, mixing movement and economy tuning with a batch of quality-of-life additions.116116Balance Changes118118Sprinting at night no longer requires the Homing Boots, so the character can move at full pace after dark from the startSprint speed increased by 15 percentStamina regeneration increased by 150 percentPlank recipes simplified to a 1:1 ratio: Everwood, Silverbark, Redwood, and Blossomwood planks each now cost a single unit of their matching wood instead of twoRepairing the broken bridge near Sunbeam Acres Farm now costs 20 Everwood Planks instead of 30Everwood lumber and Fiber spawn more often on the first map to ease early shortages120120Quality-of-Life Additions122122Backpack storage gained sorting and a text search fieldMap legend now shows collection counters, which helps when hunting down Signal Towers and landmark terminalsMap connections are uncovered automatically by defaultMultiplayer ping is now remappableThird-person camera gained an auto-centering toggle for drivingThe dog companion now spawns reliably when a save loads124124Fixes126126The patch also cleaned up several smaller issues, including dog barking behavior, a vendor stall that could fail to appear, and achievement tracking that did not always register progress.128128V1.0.9 (May 21, 2026)130130A balance-and-bugfix patch shipped three days after 1.0.8. The headline change doubles the amount of clay yielded by clay deposits, addressing community feedback that early-game pottery was bottlenecked on clay supply. The patch also closes a soft-lock bug in download terminals and adds a built-in diagnostic for the team to triage future issues quickly.132132Balance Changes134134Doubled the amount of clay received from clay deposits, easing early pottery and crafting throughput136136Bug Fixes138138Fixed a soft-lock where download terminals could appear empty and prevent the player from progressingAdded a one-click button to send the current save and log files for support diagnosticsFixed vehicle lights occasionally turning on automatically at the wrong time of dayFixed the Ring-a-Ding-Ding! achievement (collect 100 bottle caps) in multiplayer sessionsFixed the Cap 'n Snaps map legend so the markers display correctlyFixed the Red Ridge Airstrip and Golden Shores paintings appearing visually identicalFixed an issue in multiplayer where crop plots sometimes could not be harvestedTranslated several previously unlocalized stringsSmaller multiplayer stability fixes140140V1.0.10 (May 22, 2026)142142Nicknamed Download Vouchers and Bottle Cap Wallet, this patch reworks how the two currency items are carried. Players had reported that vouchers and bottle caps shared grid slots with raw resources and were easy to auto-deposit by mistake. The new Wallet UI gives each currency its own dedicated slot, with no weight and no auto-deposit behavior, while preserving the ability to drop items for friends in co-op sessions.144144Features146146Added a dedicated Wallet UI with two separate inventory slots, one for Download Vouchers and one for Bottle CapsDownload Vouchers and Bottle Caps no longer have any carrying weight, so players can hold an unlimited stackDownload Vouchers and Bottle Caps no longer auto-deposit into van storage, so players never have to lock them in the backpackWallet items can still be dropped on the ground for friends to pick up in co-op148148Bug Fixes150150Improved overall multiplayer vehicle synchronization, including a case where vehicles slowly drifted upward over a long sessionFixed building crop plots and other larger items on top of metal small side tablesFixed the dog companion not following the elevator position properlyCorrected a number of translations152152V1.0.11 (May 22, 2026)154154A quick weekend hotfix shipped the same day as 1.0.10 to address a multiplayer-only issue with the Pathmaker vehicle.

Its two headline additions are a full ladder rework and a wider set of color options for wooden furniture, bundled with the usual round of bug fixes and balance tuning.164164Features166166Ladders were massively reworked.
