Defold 1.14.0 is out on the stable channel. The GitHub release page, posted by the defold-services account, shows a release time of 12 October 2026 at 13:24 UTC.
The page gives the build metadata: version 1.14.0, channel stable, date 2026-10-12, and commit sha1 a81dbb0. It lists 17 assets attached to the release.
The page also notes that 74 commits have landed on the dev branch since this release. That means development continues on the dev branch, but the page does not say what those commits contain or which version they target.
The release page does not include a changelog, so we cannot say which features, fixes or breaking changes are in 1.14.0. Check Defold's official release notes and any migration guidance for this version before you upgrade.
For projects in production, the usual caution applies: back up or branch your project, then test the new version on a copy before moving your team over.
