Hackhub Patch Notes This update gives the game world a clock of its own, and closes out most of the save file problems you have been reporting. Thanks to everyone who sent repro steps and save files: the worst bug in here was only findable because of them. New Added an in-game cl
New Stuff The game now keeps automatic backups of your saves. There is a new Backups section on the Load screen, and if a save ever goes missing the game offers to bring it back. New Game now asks you to confirm before it starts, and reminds you that your old save is still there.
Fixes Major performance improvements across the game. Apple Silicon Macs now get the right version of the game. It was close to unplayable on M-series machines. The glitch effect that plays during a hack no longer freezes the screen. Player-made websites work properly again. Thei
New Stuff Chat improvements: all pinned messages listed at once, pins and reply quotes jump to the message wherever it is in history, and a "Jump to present" button when you have scrolled away. Repository readmes are rendered properly again: headings, bold, lists, tables and code
New Stuff F2 renames a file, both on the desktop and in File Explorer. With several selected it renames the first one. The rename box grows with what you type instead of the six-character slot it used to be. Clicking away accepts the name, Escape throws it away, and leaving it bl
New Stuff The GreyMarket floor is paged now, 20 offers at a time, with a prev/next pager and a running count of everything that matches. Searching, sorting and paging happen server side, so a floor carrying thousands of offers no longer bogs the page down. A sort dropdown next to
New Stuff Multi-select. Drag a box across the desktop or a folder, or use Ctrl+click, Shift+click and Ctrl+A. Escape clears it. Drag one selected icon and the whole group comes with it, layout intact, snapped to the grid. Delete a whole selection in one go. Asks first, goes to th
Hackhub 1.0.0 This is the big one. The headline is full Multiplayer , but there's a pile of new apps, commands and sites on the singleplayer side too. Multiplayer You can finally jump into a shared world, go after other players, and raid NPC companies. Servers and a live world. P
Leaving Early Access: Full Release on August 1, 2026 We've been in Early Access for a while now, and HackHub has changed a lot since then. Time for the last step: on August 1, 2026, the game drops the Early Access tag and launches as 1.0. From the start, two things were locked in
Fixes Fixed the "Directory not initialized" error that could block terminal commands and break Wi-Fi hacking. The terminal now finds your files properly, even when Steam acts up. Fixed the mv command so moving files to another folder actually moves them, instead of just renaming
New Stuff Terminal commands can now ask for a password with hidden input, so what you type stays masked instead of showing up as plain text. Added Shell.quit(message) for Node scripts. It prints a final message (a plain string, or {text, color, backgroundColor} like println) and
Fixes Fixed multi-monitor switching issues. Fixed port status not being changeable on TP-Link and pfSense devices. Fixed terminal command autocomplete: suggestions are now filtered correctly by the typed command and its argument order. Fixed broken category results in the Handboo
New Stuff Modding SDK – Handbook API: Mods can now register their own articles directly in the in-game Handbook, with custom categories and content. Modding SDK – SaveStorage API: A new per-save storage for mods. Data is tied to the individual save file — it never leaks between d
Added a feature to restore lost notes from your old notepad. Fixed a bug with the new Goagle Mail Typewriter. Fixed the Log Viewer display. Fixed a soft-lock issue in the Cryptographer Hunt quest.
Fixes nmap now reflects newly opened ports. Port changes made via Network.addPort / openPort / closePort / removePort were being ignored because nmap served a stale per-IP cache. SDK port mutations now invalidate that cache, so the next scan recomputes from the live network. Kiss
Fixes Fixed a softlock in The Journalist's Sister (Part 2) at "send the room list to the journalist" — the 6-hour time skip could fail to trigger after a save/reload, leaving the objective stuck. It now self-heals on load. Fixed missing dialogue in The Journalist's Sister (Part 5
Various bug fixes. A terminal.log file has been added to the /root/logs folder. This file keeps track of your terminal input-output history. You can use this file to find lost IP addresses and similar information that you forgot to note down.
New Stuff Introduced the Hackhub Content SDK, a full toolkit for creating custom in-game content (quests, websites, terminal commands, Twotter accounts and tweets, Kisscord and WeeChat conversations, emails, and phone dialogs) with complete TypeScript support. Added mod support.
New Stuff Right-click context menu: Anywhere in the game, you can now right-click selected text to Copy. Right-click on input fields to Paste. Disabled when there's nothing to copy/paste, and stays out of the way of Code++ / Notepad's own menus. Bordered window mode: Added preset
Fixes Fixed an issue preventing completion of the Checkout Override quest. Changes Updated visuals for Checkout Override product images. Integrated Hotbunny Online Services for upcoming multiplayer infrastructure. Note: Players who currently have the quest will have it reset. It
