Patch notes and the Early Access roadmap
The last Steam announcement I can cite is v0.1.57.18549 on 15 October 2026, then a roadmap on 16 October. The public branch build that week is 25978872. I am not calling a weekly cadence a fact. Three patches in eight days is what actually happened.
v0.1.57.18549 — 15 October 2026
- Serving Staff unlocks with a counter at shop level 9.
- Small refrigerator at level 4. Ramen bowl shelf at level 1.
- Rice bowl and gyoza plate shelf, and an XL order monitor, at level 10.
- Chashu rice bowl at level 20.
- World Settings: customer count, wait time, bill multiplier, and a Thief spawns switch.
- My Designs can reload PNGs without a restart. In co-op, only the host can do that.
- Hosts can kick a player. Carry limits rose for bowls, gyoza plates, and trays.
Earlier patches
v0.1.50.17746 on 10 October moved partition walls from level 12 to 10, started the My Ramen tutorial at level 4 instead of 12, and fell back to English when the chosen language is missing. Day one, v0.1.48.17626, added tantanmen, garlic chives, and a dishwasher, which the note says was the most requested item in the closed test.
Roadmap posted 16 October 2026
| Phase | Items the note names | Level cap |
|---|---|---|
| Early | Karaage, moving several structures at once, staff looks, a new critic, new difficulty, ticket machine, water dispenser | 35 |
| Mid | Gyoza and beer staff, My Sounds, new toppings, fried rice, a security turret, layout presets, a tutorial index, text chat | 40 |
| Late | New ramen styles, a food-stall shop, more gambling, noodle making, photo mode | 50 |
Today’s achievement list still stops at shop level 20, which matches the level-20 chashu rice bowl in this patch. The higher caps are roadmap promises, not the live cap. A community mention of v0.1.58.18606 has no Steam announcement next to it, so I am not listing it as released.
