Home Alone: Anomalies Update 10: What’s New & Next Update Countdown

Home Alone: Anomalies turns the classic setup on its head as a Roblox survival game: you fortify a house and outlast a rotating cast of intruders, while the developers keep the game moving with a fresh update almost every week. With over about 3,700 people in the game right now and more than 200 million visits to date, each new update lands as a genuine event for the community.

The current version is Update 10, which brings a fresh pair of intruders into the house alongside the usual round of fixes and tweaks. New updates arrive on a steady weekly rhythm rather than a fixed roadmap, so there is always a fresh version to dig into and another one already on the way. The next one is set for Wednesday, October 21 at 1 PM ET.

How often updates land

New updates go live weekly, and the developers push each one at 1:00 PM ET. The release usually lands on Wednesday, with a follow-up often arriving at the same time on Thursday, so there are two regular windows to watch each week:

• Wednesdays, 1:00 PM ET
• Thursdays, 1:00 PM ET

Home Alone: Anomalies draws players from around the world, so it helps to know where that 1:00 PM ET slot falls for you:

Miss one window and you never wait long — another update follows the next week on the same rhythm. The next date and the usual windows are on the card above.

What’s new in Update 10

Update 10 is the version most players are working through right now, and it expands the rotating cast of intruders you have to outlast:

• Girl Scout and Hacker — two new visitors added to the rotating cast that turns up around the house.
• Bug fixes — a round of cleanup alongside the new arrivals.

The developers have flagged more on top of this, so expect Update 10 to fill out a little further before the next weekly drop takes over.

Tips for catching each update

The 1:00 PM ET slot is convenient for daytime players in the Americas and early evening across Europe; in Asia and Australia it lands overnight, so setting a reminder for the following morning is the easier approach. There is no need to rush in the moment a version goes live — new content stays in the game, so you can take your time with it before the next one arrives. And if a week slips by entirely, the following update lands on the same Wednesday-and-Thursday rhythm.

How updates fit the game’s rhythm

The weekly update is the backbone of how Home Alone: Anomalies grows. Around it, the developers have shipped a run of one-off additions over time — new characters, a chores system, and a four-player mode among them — but those land as standalone drops rather than on a set schedule. The regular update is the reliable heartbeat you can plan around, and it is where most of the game’s steady stream of new characters, fixes, and tweaks first shows up.
