Mine a Mountain Events Schedule: Next Update Countdown

Updated July 30, 2026 By AllThingsHow Staff 14K playing now

Mine a Mountain has grown into one of Roblox’s busier climb-and-mine experiences, with nearly about 14,000 players digging at once, more than about 30,000,000 visits since launch, and over about 93,000 favorites. Built by 10K Steps, the game drops you onto a mountain to mine rare crystals, sell them for cash, and upgrade your warmth, pickaxe, and backpack before the cold near the summit freezes you out — and a fresh mountain spins up every hour.

The New Mountains update wrapped up on July 25, 2026, adding ten new peaks that span the full rarity range from Common to Mythic, each with its own terrain and fresh ways to strike it rich, paired with a luck event during the admin-abuse hour. It drew nearly 290,000 players signed up as interested. 10K Steps has already marked the calendar for its next update on August 1, 2026, in that same late-morning slot, but the studio hasn’t said yet what it adds — just that another drop is coming. The schedule below lists the exact start and end times, and the sections beneath it cover what’s known so far.

Last updated July 30. We update this page as 10K Steps announces new events.

Upcoming and recent events

Next update (August 1, contents unannounced)

10K Steps has put a placeholder on the calendar for August 1, 2026, running from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. ET — that’s 7:00 a.m. PT and 3:00 p.m. BST. The studio hasn’t detailed what the update includes; for now it’s just a reserved slot in the weekly rhythm the game has kept to recently. Sign-ups already number about 340,000 even without any announced content. Exact start and end times are in the schedule above.

New Mountains update (concluded)

The New Mountains update ran July 25, 2026, from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. ET — 7:00 a.m. PT, 3:00 p.m. BST — and has since wrapped. It added ten new mountains spanning the full rarity range from Common up to Mythic, each with unique terrain and its own way to cash in. The admin-abuse hour paired the drop with a luck event, cranking up everyone’s digging luck for better crystal pulls across the board. It drew nearly 290,000 signed-up players.

Boulders Update (concluded)

The Boulders Update ran on July 18, 2026, from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. ET and has since ended. It centered on hidden boulders buried deep in the mountain, which 10K Steps teased would give miners who reach them a serious edge, and it added six new pickaxes built specifically to break through that rock — gear the studio pitched as a step up in difficulty rather than beginner tools. The admin-abuse hour revisited the game’s earliest days, combining meteor strikes with bomb drops and bringing the Bloodstone back into rotation. It drew more than 300,000 players signed up as interested.
