128ordle 6.0: The shop overhaul
Released 26 September 2026. A rebuilt shop and a year of seasonal content: matching themes, keyboards and sound packs, rotating event collections, and a site that dresses up for every season.
Seasonal and event sets
- Autumn, winter, spring and summer each bring two sets. Halloween, Christmas, New Year, Valentine's, Easter and the 4th of July each bring three.
- Every set includes a board theme, a matching keyboard and a sound pack. A bundle gets you every set from a season or event for less.
- Every sound pack has its own instrument, from a ghostly theremin and a crypt organ to sleigh bells, steel drums, a brass fanfare and a champagne pop.
- The shop rotates by itself. Seasonal sets change every three months, events appear for a few weeks, and anything you buy is yours to keep after it rotates out.
- Try any theme on for 20 seconds before you buy, and hear every sound pack from its card.
A new-look shop
- The shop has a featured banner for whatever is live, a countdown to the next drop and a calendar of every season and event.
- The nine permanent packs are back at lower prices. Lifetime Supporter still includes all of them.
- Lifetime and Monthly do not include seasonal or event sets, and the shop now says so.
More to look forward to
- Halloween arrives on October 1 and stays through November 2. Christmas follows on December 1 and stays through December 26. Event dates use UTC.
- Watch the Halloween or Christmas trailer with sound from the featured shop banner while that event is live. Playback starts only when you choose it.
- New Year, Valentine's, Easter and the 4th of July follow through the year, alongside the four seasonal collections. Check the shop calendar for the next drop.
- Collections rotate automatically, while everything you already own stays in your Style menu all year.
Style and the rest of the site
- The Style menu now has tabs for sets, themes, keyboards, sounds and effects, with seasonal items grouped by season and an Owned only filter.
- Wear a whole set in one tap from the new Sets tab.
- The top bar, logo and home banner change with the current season or event, and the home banner tells you when the next event is coming.
- A Shop button sits in the top bar, and the old Lifetime banner on the home page is gone.
