While the majority of our team continues to focus on development snapshots for Godot 4.7, we still have a commitment to maintenance releases for the latest stable version. Specifically, our release support policy promises active support until the successor’s first patch release, so there’s still room for yet more maintenance releases in the future. As for now, we’d like to thank everyone who took the time to evaluate and ratify our release candidates for Godot 4.6.2.

Maintenance releases are expected to be safe for an upgrade, but we recommend to always make backups, or use a version control system such as Git, to preserve your projects in case of corruption or data loss.

Please consider supporting the project financially, if you are able. Godot is maintained by the efforts of volunteers and a small team of paid contributors. Your donations go towards sponsoring their work and ensuring they can dedicate their undivided attention to the needs of the project.

The cover illustration is from Bombun, a wholesome 3D platformer where you guide Bombun, a bomb-throwing bunny, on a mission to defend her floating fortress from a friend-turned-foe. You can buy the game on Steam, and follow the developer on Bluesky or itch.io.
