Smash the City Update: Schedule, Start Times & Next Countdown

Smash the City’s Update is the game’s regular content drop — a fresh wave of weapons, modes, and map changes that developer Kabooom Crew rolls out on a steady schedule instead of all at once. The game has piled up about 11,000,000 visits and keeps a steady crowd on at any hour, with about 2,600 players tearing through the city right now.

This is not a one-time event. A new Update returns on a predictable rhythm — every two weeks — and each one opens over the same weekend time slots so players in every region can get in early. The next one is set for Saturday, October 24 at 10 AM ET.

How often updates land

A new Update arrives every two weeks, and there have been 2 so far. Rather than a single moment, each one opens across two weekend windows, both at 10:00 AM Eastern:

• Saturdays, 10:00 AM ET
• Sundays, 10:00 AM ET

Two windows on the same weekend exist for one reason: Smash the City draws players from every continent, and a single launch time would fall in the dead of night for half of them. Opening across both mornings gives the Americas, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region each a reasonable hour to be online.

Here is how the 10:00 AM ET opening lands across the major world clocks (each shifts by an hour either way as daylight saving changes through the year):

What’s in the Update

Smash the City is built around flattening a city with an ever-growing arsenal, and each Update feeds that loop. A typical drop mixes some combination of:

• New weapons and tools for bigger, messier destruction
• Fresh modes or limited challenges that change how a round plays out
• Map additions and reworked areas to tear through
• Balance passes, bug fixes, and quality-of-life tweaks

The headline feature changes from one Update to the next, which is why it is worth catching the opening live rather than hearing about it afterward.

Tips for catching the Update

• Pick whichever of the two weekend windows is a civil hour where you are — the table above makes that easy to spot.
• If it opens mid-afternoon in Europe or late evening in Asia for you, set a reminder the night before so it does not slip past.
• Miss it entirely? The next Update comes back around in roughly two weeks, so nothing is lost for long.
• Logging in right at the opening usually means less crowded servers and first crack at any new gear.

How it fits Smash the City’s event rhythm

The Update is the backbone of a wider run of events in Smash the City. Alongside it, the Kaiju & God Mode Update is currently live, layering extra chaos on top of the base loop, while earlier additions such as the 8 New Weapons batch have already run their course. Treat the regular Update as the reliable heartbeat and the others as the bigger set pieces that build on it. We keep this page current as new Updates are announced.
