This Week in Plato
August is wrapping up... here's what was released on Plato in the last week!
Android version 7.4.0 is now available with fixes for Profile Frames, Private Group profile pictures, finished games on the Home screen, and display issues in Discover and Aura. It also includes several performance improvements and bug fixes.
We also fixed stuck games in Skee-Ball and Cribbage, corrected visual issues in Pool and Bowling, and added faster turns to Poker.
Archery now features haptic feedback and other gameplay improvements.
Finally, the new Cat-a-pult Tank has arrived and we plan to release one more tank by the end of 2026.
Lots more to come in September 🫡
Have fun and play together.
Updates for the Week of August 14, 2026
This week in Plato
This week, we took action against a network of accounts that used bots to distribute Aura. We banned the accounts, rolled back 5,796,442 Aura, and introduced new protections to help prevent further abuse.
There’s still more work to do in the fight against bots and cheating, and we’re actively working to keep Plato fair and fun for everyone.
iOS
Version 7.3.0+ is now available, featuring a new Liquid Glass interface designed to match the latest versions of iOS.
Android
Version 7.3.1 is now available with additional performance improvements. We’re aware of an issue affecting group profile pictures and expect to release a fix next week.
Coming Soon
We’re putting the finishing touches on our time-trial racing game and we're making progress on an all-new feature designed to help you find your perfect match on Plato.
Have fun and play together!

Upcoming Wednesday Maintenance Window
Plato will undergo server maintenance on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, at 9:00 AM UTC / 2:00 AM PDT.
For up to 30 minutes, XP, Wins, and other stats may not be recorded or updated. Ranked Games will be unavailable during this time.
You can continue using Plato during maintenance, but any XP or Wins that are not recorded cannot be recovered.
Updates for the Week of July 13, 2026
iOS Updates
Version 7.2.1 adds message translation and fixes an issue that prevented some players from using Coins to Hype others.
To turn on message translation:
- Open your Profile.
- Tap the gear icon.
- Select Languages.
- Turn on message translation.
- Tap Downloaded Languages and download the languages you want to use.
Once enabled, press and hold a message to see the Translate option. This option will appear when Plato can translate the message into your selected language(s).
Translation uses the built-in translation tools available on iOS 18 and newer. Some translations may not be completely accurate, and we will continue improving the experience in future updates.
Android Updates
The new Plato Shop is now available on Android starting with version 7.2.0.
Updates for Everyone
You can now sort items in each Shop category alphabetically from A to Z or by price from low to high.
Players must now make at least one purchase before they can send gifts. Players who have not made a purchase can still receive gifts.
We are also limiting the number of devices that can remain actively logged in to the same account. This change is intended to reduce problems caused by using an account on too many devices at once.
Coming Next
We are aware that some Android players are experiencing performance issues. We are working to address as many of these problems as possible in version 7.2.1, which is planned for next week.
Thanks for your continued support!

｡⋆｡☁︎｡ﾟ⋆ Play Together ⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡
Every toy holds a story. It remembers the adventures we imagined, the friendships we treasured, and the dreams that felt larger than life. Years later, holding it again reminds us not just of what we played with, but of who we were...curious, fearless, and ready to believe anything was possible.
˚.⋆𓆝˚.⋆𓆉 Deep Blue 𓆉 ⋆.˚ 𓆝⋆.˚
In a bright and bubbly corner of the ocean, sea friends gather among colorful coral and sunlit waters. Turtles wander, fish play hide-and-seek, and jellyfish drift by like floating lanterns, creating a world where every day is an adventure and every creature belongs.
⚽ Plato Champions Cup 🏆
The journey begins with a ball and a dream. Every goal sparks hope, every match creates legends, and every fan becomes part of something bigger than the game itself.
Forest Folk ༄˖°.🍃.ೃ࿔*:･
Somewhere deep in the forest, where the fog clings to the trees and the air smells like rain and pine, it feels like magic never disappeared, only hid itself among the moss-covered paths and silver moonlight. ✨🌲
🆕 Feature: Anomaly Effects
A new battle modifier will now appear in Quick Play, bringing fresh strategies and new team combinations to explore!
Each Anomaly Effect introduces unique gameplay changes that may affect monsters, players, or even the battlefield itself — but every advantage comes with a tradeoff.
Anomaly Effects follow an alternating schedule:
• 1 week active
• 1 week inactive
This gives players time to enjoy both special rule sets and standard battles.
🪽THIS WEEK'S ANOMALY: WINGS
📅 May 20 – May 27
Monsters with Wings gain:
⚔️ Full Mana Attack +2
But beware:
💔 Using Winged monsters reduces your starting Health.
• 1 Winged monster → Start with -5 Health
• 2 Winged monsters → Start with -10 Health
Choose your team wisely and discover new ways to battle!
No Exit 🚪
There’s something deeply wrong about a place that looks safe but feels empty. The buzzing lights. The endless rooms. The smell of wet carpet. No monsters. No screams. Just the feeling that you were never supposed to be there in the first place.
😁 Picture Perfect 📸
Taking pictures used to be about remembering the moment. Now it feels more like proof that it happened. But every once in a while, you take a photo that captures something real. Not just how it looked, but how it felt. ✨

✏️ Draft Mode 📓
The best ideas rarely start perfect. They begin as scribbles in the margins, tucked into pages that no one else may ever see. Some pages are messy, some are empty, some feel like breakthroughs. That’s the beauty of a sketchbook, it holds all versions of you.
