What's New in r458
Release r458 was published on 21 Oct, 2025
It's a new stable release of Construct! If you're updating from the last stable release r449.2 then this update includes changes from r450, r451, r452, r453, r454, r455, r456 and r457. Highlights include:
⭐ Updates for the desktop export options (Windows WebView2 and macOS WKWebView), including options to export without the window caption and have a non-resizable window, and Browser actions to maximize, minimize and restore the window.
⭐ Lots of updates for the 9-patch object, including changing the image scale, improved rendering at small sizes, loading images from URL, and support for changing settings per instance.
⭐ Performance improvements for the Text object, including a new optimized text layout engine, and better performance when dynamically scaling or changing Text objects, including optimizations targeted for WebGPU (which browser makers are also working on)
⭐ The modern WebGPU renderer is now enabled by default for both the editor and runtime, allowing for improved performance in most cases.
⭐ The debugger now shows more information about timelines
⭐ You can now write unlimited lines of code in the Free Edition!
Note this release also retires the following features:
• The legacy "flat" export file structure
• Support for exporting to Windows 32-bit (x86)
You can however continue using all the above features in the r449.x LTS releases which will be supported until the end of 2026.
We'll be starting a new beta release cycle soon. If you'd like to help test it, try the beta release opt-in: choose Notify me about updates for beta releases in Settings. Stay tuned for more updates!
