The road ahead

A plan with dates.
And room to surprise.

These dates are tentative, but we have every reason to believe we can meet them—and deliver more along the way. Specific release details will normally appear one week before each stop.

DEC 242026
New play mode

A new way to Draw the Line.

Our first major post-release mode is planned for Christmas Eve. The mode itself will remain under wraps until one week before release.

APR 12027
Themed content release

The first seasonal stop.

A themed word pack is planned for the spring release window. Final contents will be revealed closer to the date.

JUN 302027
New play mode

A new way to celebrate.

Our second annual play-mode release is timed to arrive for Canada Day on July 1 and Independence Day in the United States on July 4. Its identity will remain secret until the final approach.

OCT 12027
Themed content release

Another reason to gather.

The next themed word pack is planned for early autumn, continuing the roughly three-month rhythm on either side of our annual mode release.

DEC 242027
New play mode

The annual Christmas Eve tradition continues.

December 24 is reserved for something larger: a new play mode, with its identity kept secret until the final approach to release.

Not a one-year experiment.

Several years of additional Draw the Line content are already planned at this cadence. The dates may move when the work demands it, but the rhythm is intentional: themed word packs on April 1 and October 1, with new play modes arriving June 30 and December 24.

April 1 & October 1

Themed word packs

Twice each year, a new theme gives familiar groups something fresh to draw, guess, and argue about.

June 30 & December 24

New play modes

Twice each year, the way you can play grows. The dates are public; the modes remain surprises until shortly before release.

Date to be determined

Accounts unlock avatars

Player accounts are a top priority after the necessary server infrastructure is available. Avatars will arrive with them, and we will give that launch a date only when we can make it honestly.

The first collection

Four chosen. Six by you.

The first avatar offering will include ten choices. These first four are confirmed; players will vote from a limited selection to choose the remaining six.

Coming with player accounts

Meet the first four.

Midnight Raid, Mmm, Yummy, Paraglide, and Platy What have secured their places in the first collection. Players will select the other six through a vote from a limited field of candidates.

The first community milestone

25,000 downloads.
25 additional words.

When Draw the Line – Partner reaches 25,000 verified downloads across its supported marketplaces, we plan to publish the first promotional code. It will permanently add 25 words to the General Library for players who redeem it.
