May 13, 2026

Players can look forward to what may be our most exciting Genesis Week yet, not because of any single prize, event, or sale, but because of the amount of information, previews, system reveals, and future-facing drops we plan to share.
This year, Genesis Week is about showing where Upland is headed. We’ll have more details to share soon.
