Rubber Bandits

Rubber Bandits launched on December 2, 2021 and has received a sustained stream of content updates ever since. The developer has shipped six categorized major content drops post-launch, alongside multiple feature patches and recurring seasonal events. Notable updates include the Modifier Madness update (January 18, 2023), the Scoring Big update with new volcano levels and weapons (March 7, 2023), the Quality of Crime improvements (June 15, 2023), and the v1.9 Custom Crimes feature update (April 25, 2024). The developer also runs a regular seasonal event calendar — the Lunar New Year celebration returned for the Year of the Snake on January 29, 2025, and summer skins were made available starting July 15, 2025. In their December 24, 2023 year-in-review post, the developer explicitly promised "many more devious updates and intricate heists in 2024," demonstrating ongoing commitment. All four DLC packs have shipped. The most recent developer communication is from July 15, 2025. Today's date is October 8, 2026 — meaning it has been approximately 15 months since the last post. While this is a longer silence than the game's historical posting rhythm, the developer has historically gone several months between updates, and seasonal events (such as the annual Lunar New Year content) have recurred every year. No statement from the developer indicates that development is winding down or concluded, and the recurring seasonal cadence suggests continued engagement. The silence is notable but not yet definitive evidence that the game is finished.
