Sephiria Patch Notes and Update Tracker

Sephiria left Early Access on 31 July 2026 and went from 1.0.19 to 1.0.29 in a fortnight, then to 1.0.30 on 20 August, 1.0.31 on 10 September and 1.0.33 a day later. This page tracks what each of those versions changed, and names the announcement it came from. It does not reproduce the patch notes — the full text is on Sephiria’s Steam news page, under the title shown on each entry.

Every announced 1.0 version

What 1.0.31 changed

1.0.31 is the biggest update since launch, and the first since 1.0 to add weapon upgrades and Artifacts. From TEAM HORAY’s notes:

1.0.33 followed the next day. It changed Master’s Tsuba, one of the new Artifacts, so that it extends Sheath and Unsheath invincibility by 40/70/120% rather than by a fixed 0.05 to 0.25 seconds. The same notes list a known issue: enemies can sometimes move outside walls. TEAM HORAY thinks the new collision system from 1.0.31 is the cause and is asking players to send footage.

The new Artifacts are in the Artifacts database and the reworked upgrades are in the Weapon Upgrade Explorer, each with a badge naming the patch.

Why the version numbers do not line up

Three things about this feed trip people up, and none of them are bugs:

• Announcement titles lag the version number. The post titled “1.0.28 hotfix” contains 1.0.29. The post titled “1.0.26 Update” contains 1.0.27. If you search for a version number and find nothing, check the post above the one you expected.
• Some builds have no announcement at all. There is no post for 1.0.20, 1.0.25 or 1.0.32. TEAM HORAY announces the builds worth announcing, not every increment, so a gap in the numbering is not a missing patch note.
• 1.0 itself is 1.0.19. The launch announcement carries notes headed 1.0.19, not 1.0.0, even though the last announced Early Access build was 0.12.4. Nothing between the two was ever published, so 1.0.19 is simply where the released game starts.

What the 1.0 release actually added

The launch build was not a version bump on the last Early Access patch. From TEAM HORAY’s own announcement:

One thing worth knowing before you update: mid-run save data from the Early Access version cannot be continued in 1.0. An in-progress run ends and you return to town.

At the same time TEAM HORAY published the shape of the finished game — 6 chapters, six weapon branches with over 200 upgrades, about 300 Artifacts, about 70 Tablets, over 30 Potions, over 20 costumes, 18 Hard Mode elements, 12 languages, and online co-op for up to 4 players.

Those were the 1.0 figures, and one of them has already moved: 1.0.30 added Traditional Chinese, Italian and Turkish, so the store now lists 15 languages, not 12. That is the reason this tracker exists — the launch announcement is the best single description of the game, and it starts going out of date the week after it is published.

How this page is kept

Worth stating plainly, because an update tracker that quietly goes stale is worse than none at all:

• Sources: TEAM HORAY’s Steam announcements. Each version names the announcement it came from, so you can find it on Steam. Nothing else.
• Scope: one line per announced version, plus the systems it touched. Builds TEAM HORAY never posted about — 1.0.20, 1.0.25 and 1.0.32 — are not listed, because there is nothing to cite. Full notes stay on Steam.
• Checked: on every version change, and at least once a fortnight otherwise. The build refuses to publish this page if that check falls more than 30 days behind.

Every other Sephiria page here carries the version it was written against. When this tracker moves ahead of one of them, that page starts saying so on its own.
