Furniture will be able to be placed in homes around the city.Controller support is underway as we speak.

A Look into 2026 - Grit & Grind
So, as we all know the year is coming to an end. But, that hasn't stopped the progress being made! I just want to announce some things before the end of the year, moving forward.The demo will receive one more final patch update around Jan. 1st 2026.I took a 1.5 month break on the early access version of the game after i put out the updates for the demo, but I'm now back working everyday on the game. I've reworked some game systems already, added one new skill with some basic items, and started developing the mining system.I will be taking another break around Christmas (2 days), and then full force work after, so i can plan another announcement for the early access release date and info (and roadmap) + a month or two for small promo in mid 2026.Thank you to everyone so far for the continued support on the game, and i look forward to the future of Grit & Grind.Read full article on Community Announcements (DevinTheDivine)Patch NotesOfficial
