Quick answer

The short version

Harlow's Favorite Update ran as an official Roblox event from July 10 at 12:00 PM ET to July 12 at 12:00 PM ET, 2026. The official teaser named new class visuals, items, reworked skins, Security and Secret Agent reworks, reworked 2D icons, a reduced flashing-lights mode, new Dr. Harlow interactions, a hidden interaction, and a new lore character. The community wiki's update log records what shipped: the Scanner, Mint Tea, and Deployable Camera items; the Skinwalker-to-Mimic rename with a crawl animation; the Stalker's photo weakness; Gun ammo cut from 30 to 20; and Liz as the new lore character.

The event

Dates and the official teaser

The Roblox event page is the date source of record: the event opened July 10, 2026 at 12:00 PM ET and closed July 12 at 12:00 PM ET. It was the game's mid-summer named update, following June's two-part Class Update and preceding July 25's The Hazmat Team Arrives.

The official teaser list is scope, not patch notes — it named the areas the update touched without publishing perk values. That gap is why this page pairs the official teaser with the community wiki's update log: the teaser says what was promised, the log says what players documented as shipped.

Teaser vs shipped

Security and Secret Agent reworks	Security: Deployable Camera at level 2 and a five-use regenerating X-Taser at level 3. Secret Agent: Gun and Scanner in the starter kit; Gun ammo reduced from 30 to 20
New items	The Scanner, Mint Tea (100 Coins), and the Deployable Camera (600 Coins) join the shop set
Reworked 2D icons and reduced flashing lights	The accessibility-oriented flashing-lights reduction; the wiki's Classes page records the rework wave in the same window
New Dr. Harlow interactions and model	Dr. Harlow appears in the lobby after Shift 7; his conversation asks for Mint Tea and opens the research lore thread
A hidden interaction and a new lore character	Liz joins as the lore character (Shifts 10-21 per the update log); the Stalker gains a documented photo weakness; the Skinwalker enemy is renamed Mimic with a crawl-on-all-fours animation

What changed for players

The three shifts that mattered

Defense changed most. Security went from a generic threat-response class to a documented kit class — a deployable camera for room watching and a regenerating taser at level 3 — while the Secret Agent's Gun ammo cut (30 to 20) repriced every careless shot. Players holding tier-list opinions from June were reading a different game.

The entity meta changed second. The Mimic rename made the community's guides searchable again, the crawl animation gave the CCTV reveal a third signature, and the Stalker's photo weakness turned the flickering-lights event from a hiding game into a camera duel. Entity pages across this site date from that rework.

The lore opened third. Dr. Harlow's post-Shift-7 lobby presence and Liz's arrival gave the game's story its first interactive surfaces — the Mint Tea key, the UV camera task that July coverage attached to Liz, and the research thread both characters feed.
