Here are the latest Slay the Spire patch notes as of now:
- Slay the Spire 2 beta patches in March–April 2026 introduced balance changes to bosses and cards, nerfs to some infinite-combo strategies, and new accessibility features like Phobia Mode. This batch aimed to curb overly strong infinite loop builds while keeping the game challenging and accessible for a broader range of players.[3][4][6]
- The beta patches (v0.99 to v0.101.0) rolled out balancing adjustments across multiple character archetypes, with notable adjustments to boss encounters (e.g., Doormaker adjustments) and nerfs to certain high-damage, infinite-combo interactions, plus bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements. These changes were communicated ahead of moving toward a broader release on the main branch.[7][9]
- Early Steam notes and press coverage indicate ongoing balancing work in 2026, with Mega Crit signaling that more patches are planned to refine difficulty, expand accessibility features, and iterate on feedback from players during Early Access. Expect further patches and potential reversions or tweaks based on community feedback.[5][8][10]
Illustration: A quick snapshot of the patch trajectory
- Early 2026: Beta patches focus on nerfing infinite combos and adjusting Doormaker-related balance.[4][3]
- March 2026: Major beta patch v0.101.0 (and related hotfixes) broadens balance changes across classes, plus bug fixes and accessibility tweaks.[6][7]
- Ongoing: Roadmap mentions continued balance patches, bug fixes, and new modes like Phobia Mode, with attention to player feedback.[9][5]
