BETA 8 · 2026-07-18
The Roblox game title changed to "Mine a Planet [BETA 8]" on July 18, 2026 (~22:16 UTC), with a follow-up content update on July 19. The game description text was unchanged and Skydog Games published no patch notes, so the exact content changes are undocumented.

Questions about this update
Do the BETA 8 codes still work?
Yes. UPDATE8 grants 3x Strong Battery and has not been retired. Four other codes also still work: UPDATE7, DISCORD, BETABETA and DRONES. No code in this game has been confirmed expired since launch, so an older code list is worth trying rather than skipping.
What changed between BETA 8 and BETA 9?
The one documented difference is the event: BETA 9 opened as "Overclocked!" on July 25, 2026, and its official teaser mentions mutation crafting plus new weather and incident events. Neither version shipped patch notes, so any comparison beyond that is guesswork. The drone, pet and chip data on this site was captured during the BETA 8 window and is labeled as such.
How big did the game get during BETA 8?
It passed 4.5 million visits with roughly 20,000 concurrent players in this window, read from the Roblox Games API at the time. For scale, the same endpoint now reports over 12 million visits — most of this game's growth happened after BETA 8.
