Lift a Cube Big Update: Start Time, Countdown, and What’s Next

Updated September 14, 2026 By AllThingsHow Staff 17K playing now

Lift a Cube has its first major content update on the calendar. Freaky Strong!, the studio behind the game, has scheduled a release billed as its Big Update, or Update 1, to go live on Saturday, September 19, 2026 at 11:00 AM ET (8:00 AM PT, 4:00 PM BST). This page covers what’s scheduled, when it lands, and how much interest it’s drawing, and we keep it current as the game’s plans change.

The climb-and-strength experience has grown into one of Roblox’s busier games. It has drawn more than about 6,900,000 visits since launch and holds about 16,000 favorites, with about 17,000 players in it right now. The premise is simple to pick up: you do push-ups to build strength, upgrade your arms for faster reps, and haul progressively heavier cubes as you push deeper into the map.

We update this page as Lift a Cube’s schedule changes. Last updated September 14.
