[Announcement] MakeCode Arcade 2026 release is live!

Hey folks!

Hotfix number 2 went out this morning! Included fixes for these issues:

  • Fixed focus logic when disposing of blocks (reported by lots of people)
  • Fixed bug where audio descended into crackly madness when left running for too long (reported by @PixelDoodle)
  • Fixed bug where assets were duplicated when selecting them from the “My Assets” tab in field editors (reported by @Bilangus)

…and some bugs nobody reported:

  • Fixed glitchy images in the gallery tab of the asset view.
  • Fixed animating preview on animation blocks not stopping (only in non-chromium browsers).
  • Removed the weird white squares next to variable names in the debugger toolbox.
  • Removed the size filter for loading projects via HEX/UF2/PNG drag-and-drop. This was preventing large projects from being dragged into the editor.
