Deadlock Developer Teases Update Release Date and Hero Voting

Publish Date: January 20, 2026



Deadlock’s next update has been highly anticipated since we first began covering its leaked content, and the game’s Lead Developer, Yoshi, has just given us an update on what to expect in terms of release date and an old feature that is being brought back in this update. Here’s what to expect.

Yoshi says New Deadlock Update is Almost Here

Deadlock developer, Yoshi, stated that, “The update is looking like its a few days or so away atm” in the official Discord server earlier today.

This has fans speculating a January 22nd or 23rd release date for the patch, however, we do not have anything official outside of what Yoshi stated here.
