Current and upcoming events
The next update, starting September 5
DevvGames has reserved a spot on the calendar for Wanted’s next major update, set to open on September 5, 2026 at 1:00 PM ET (12:00 PM CT, 10:00 AM PT, 6:00 PM BST) and run through September 15. This is a placeholder for the date rather than a full reveal — the studio has flagged when the drop lands, but not what’s in it, so specifics should firm up closer to launch. Interest is already stacking up, with about 29,000 players marking themselves as interested ahead of time.
What’s new in Wanted right now
Ahead of that scheduled update, the game’s most recent additions give a sense of the pace DevvGames keeps. The latest changes add an evidence-room heist — you knock out the building’s power by destroying its transformers before making the grab — alongside a new Aegis armored truck, fresh gun crates with shorter cooldowns, and new ATM rarities to chase. As always in Wanted, cash and completed missions unlock faster cars, stronger weapons, and a bigger base, while each crime raises your wanted level and puts a bounty on your head.
