Build and Defend Your Raft Updates
The game is live, patches land on Saturday, and your walls need a weekly once-over.
Build and Defend Your Raft went live on Roblox on 28 July 2026. The place was last touched around 1 September 2026. The description still promises new updates every Saturday. That sentence is the patch schedule until Raft Pirates publish a different one.
This hub is the timeline. The deep weekly page is Saturday patches. After each drop, recross the tier list because a wall or cannon tweak can flip last week’s S-tier layout.
Launch snapshot
- Studio / group: Raft Pirates
- Loop at launch: collect resources, expand the raft, upgrade the Crafting Table, defend loot, raid other rafts
- Server size: 18
- Codes at launch: none working, none expired (see codes)
- Platforms: Roblox on PC, consoles, and mobile
The game is released, not a coming-soon teaser. You can queue now. Early-week player counts already sit in the thousands, which is why raids feel frequent even on a new title.
What a Saturday drop can change
Without a public patch blog, you learn the notes in-game. Watch for:
- New Crafting Table tiers or cheaper recipes
- Wall, spike, or cannon pieces
- Shop codes (redeem with how to redeem)
- Raid tools or harpoon tweaks
- Bug fixes that restore decks after a physics freak-out
Log those on Saturday patches so you are not rebuilding from memory. If a recipe moves, the Crafting Table guide and gear list should be read before you dump a chest of wood.
How to patch-proof a raft
- Screenshot your deck before you leave on Friday.
- After the Saturday load, walk the perimeter. Missing plates mean a recipe or HP change.
- Test the Shop redeem box even if codes still say empty.
- If scripts were on, turn them off. A stale auto-build can delete a legal wall. See scripts.
- Only then go raiding with how to raid.
Why this page is not a rumor pile
We will not invent patch bullet lists. If Raft Pirates only say “favorite for more updates,” that is the note. When they add a real changelog, it will be quoted here and split onto the Saturday page. Until then, treat the live table and the live Shop as canon.
