#The Weekly Grind - Dec 16, 2025

Welcome back to The Weekly Grind.
Let’s get to it!
What’s going on?
Yesterday we dropped Update 0.29.5 (patch notes here), and today we’re kicking off Winter Roll-stice, our four-week winter event in San Vansterdam.
Even in the unusually sunny city of San Van, it’s always cool to chill out in winter, so check out the Winter Roll-stice mini-blog for details, jump into the game, and collect your Snowflakes to get some Winter Roll-stice gear.
On Tuesday, Dec 9, San Vanners saw two bundles in the in-game store: our new adidas bundle and the return of The Grim Reaper. You may have noticed that both bundles show a discounted price. The discounted value is based on the SVB cost of the individual items versus the bundled price/total value of the set.
For the discounted adidas bundle, available for purchase last week in the in-game store, the bundled items will be rotating individually through the store. For The Grim Reaper, this means: yes, we've heard feedback about unbundling bundles to give you more choice, and that is coming in the future. As we approach the release of the next store update, we'll share more details with you.
We recognize that this was confusing, and we'll continue to work on improving our proactive communications to prevent similar situations from occurring.
