Satisfactory, developed by Coffee Stain Studios, has had fans eagerly awaiting an official 1.0 launch for a while now. So, is it true that players will have to wait years, or is it a prank on the developer’s part?
Does Satisfactory have a Roadmap?
Until July 13, 2025, Coffee Stain Studios had never released a roadmap for Satisfactory. That all (seemingly) changed when it released apremiere videoon YouTube where the community manager, Snutt Treptow, claimed to know all updates that would occur before the official 1.0 launch of Satisfactory.

Except, these are false updates.The video quickly devolves into madness as Treptow begins laying out Update 12, glitching until he is reset and at the field where he stood at the start of the video. That’s becausethe roadmap doesn’t exist. The first portion of the video by Coffee Stain Studios was a joke to mess with viewers. Finally, Treptow gives the actual confirmation of Update 1.0 being on the horizon.
