Knife VS Gun DUELS Summer Update: Schedule, Times & Next Countdown

Updated October 19, 2026 By AllThingsHow Staff 16K playing now

The Summer Update is the recurring content wave in Knife VS Gun DUELS, one of Roblox’s knife-versus-gun arena duelers. The game has pulled in more than about 410,000,000 visits over its run, sits on over about 730,000 favorites, and rarely feels empty — roughly about 16,000 players are in a duel at the moment.

Rather than landing once and fading out, the Summer Update returns on a set rhythm. The developer rolls out a new one every two weeks, and it has already run 2. The next run and its usual Friday time slots are on the card below.

How often the Summer Update lands

A new Summer Update arrives every two weeks, which puts the next one around Friday, October 30 at 2 PM ET. The developer hasn’t posted that exact date yet, so it’s our best estimate from the event’s established rhythm — we confirm it here once it’s announced.

Each run opens across two Friday windows — 2:00 PM and 3:00 PM ET — spaced an hour apart so players in different parts of the world have a convenient slot to jump in. Here is how those two windows fall across the major time zones:

RegionFirst windowSecond window
US Pacific11:00 AM12:00 PM
US Eastern2:00 PM3:00 PM
UK6:00 PM7:00 PM
Central Europe7:00 PM8:00 PM
India11:30 PM12:30 AM (next day)
Japan3:00 AM (next day)4:00 AM (next day)
Australia (AEDT)5:00 AM (next day)6:00 AM (next day)

Having two windows means the launch isn’t tied to one awkward hour: a Friday-afternoon slot in the Americas is still a reasonable evening in Europe, while the staggered pair gives Asia-Pacific players an early-morning option that lines up with the weekend.

What the Summer Update brings

Each Summer Update is a seasonal refresh of the core knife-and-gun dueling loop rather than a spin-off mode. The developer hasn’t published a standing list of what each run adds — specifics show up once a run actually goes live, on the card above.

Tips for catching it

Pick whichever of the two Friday windows sits closest to your evening and treat the other as a backup. If both land awkwardly, it’s worth setting a reminder a few minutes ahead, but there’s no real penalty for missing a run: the Summer Update comes back on its usual cycle, and the next date and the time slots are always on the card above. Jumping in at launch mainly helps if you want the busiest lobbies and the earliest crack at anything time-limited.

How it fits the game’s rhythm

Knife VS Gun DUELS runs a steady drumbeat of events rather than one big annual drop. The Summer Update is the seasonal anchor, while the Secret Update is live alongside it, and past cycles have shipped additions like new duel maps, item waves, bundles and themed expansions. Taken together, that cadence is why the player count holds up between major moments — there’s usually something new within a couple of weeks.
