0.4.6 went live on October 23, 2026
Infinity Rising posted (opens in new tab) that 0.4.6 To the Clouds: Part II is live. The post calls it a pre-alpha build.
A Discord announcement said servers were back up and listed the notes that follow. The studio's September 26, 2026, Steam post for 0.4.5 To the Clouds introduced free flight.
Global Map free flight and clouds
The Discord announcement's list included expanded free flight across the Global Map, plus new Hub City hangars. Ultra, High, and Medium cloud settings are in that list. It also listed performance and graphics improvements for low- to mid-range hardware, with reduced VRAM use.
HOVA SPORT
The announcement listed HOVA SPORT as hover-bike racing in Hub City, on a new stunt track. Leaderboards are coming soon. More tracks are planned.
Halloween Event: Part 3
The announcement listed Halloween Event: Part 3 as live, with streamlined Halloween quests, skippable cutscenes, quest restarting, and repositioned quest objects. New challenges are Maintenance Tunnel, Racing Track, and Outdoor Shooting Range, on Solace 1 and Solace 2, two of the game's open-world maps. It listed fixes for a ghost avatar and for the quest terminal and challenge start, adjusted shooting-range XP caps, and more performance and VRAM work. No end date or rewards were published.
Avatar customization and the 2025 OG Gift
The announcement listed expanded body customization: waist and hip controls, a back arch, more body types, two new presets, and a refresh of existing presets. The Discord announcement named Rando's Meat Shredder as the 2025 OG Gift and said it is in the game; the studio has not said who receives it, and an official announcement about the gift is still to come.
