Trivia

  • Update 2.21 may be the first minor update to introduce a main level.
  • Update 2.21 will likely be the largest minor update ever added to the game.
  • Event levels and many icons were originally planned for Update 2.21, but were added in Update 2.207 instead.

History

2023

  • 19 October: Robert Topala elaborated on Update 2.21, saying it would be 'mostly just delayed stuff' alongside upgrades to features added in Update 2.2 such as auto-build.[Discord 3]
    • He confirmed that Explorers would be released in Update 2.21.[Discord 1]
    • Robert Topala also mentioned that some levels in the Platformer mode would not be available until Update 2.21.[Discord 2]

2024

  • 2 February: In an AMA on the Geometry Dash subreddit, Robert Topala explained that The Map would have several user-created levels in different themed areas. It would also feature shops, reward chests, and secrets.[Reddit 1]
  • 21 February: RobTop said Explorers would take a lot of time, and it is not confirmed whether it will be in 2.21.

Feature dialogue

Clicking on the menu icons for the upcoming features visible in Update 2.2 displays unique dialogue (except for The Map, which shows a unique preview image instead).

When clicking on the Versus button repeatedly, both the Keymaster and Scratch respond:

  • The Keymaster: Versus mode has been delayed, but it's in the works!
  • The Keymaster: Yea... It's still delayed.
  • Scratch: I blame RobTop.
  • The Keymaster: Who else could we blame? We're not even real.
  • Scratch: Speak for yourself I'm real!
  • The Keymaster: Yea, a real pain in the...
  • Scratch: You're just mad because you don't have a shop.
  • The Keymaster: You have a shop?
  • Scratch: I HAVE SAID TOO MUCH! QUICKLY TO THE CHOPPER!
  • The Keymaster: You don't have a chop...
  • Scratch: ...
  • The Keymaster: .....
Notably, Scratch's final line in this sequence uses a unique image featuring a helicopter for the dialogue icon.

Icon messages

Clicking on an Icon Kit reward in Update 2.2 that will only be available in Update 2.21 displays one of the following messages in place of the achievement name:
  • Almost there
  • Coming soon!
  • Huh?
  • In the oven
  • It's cooking
  • Not now
  • Not yet
  • Soon…
  • Stay tuned!
  • Unavailable
  • Wait for it
