Harvest Season 2026: Fresh Missions, New Discoveries

A new season is taking root in Upland. Harvest Gamified Earnings missions begin Tuesday, October 6, bringing a simpler seasonal chase: 10 missions, all weekly, with no season-long missions. Jump into each week’s challenges, work toward next season’s UPX earnings, and get ready for something new to collect with Troves expected to arrive during October.

From your first paid send to your final completed mission, Harvest is about getting out into Upland and making progress. Here is what is changing, what is staying, and how to start your run.

Week 1: Send and Celebrate (October 6–13)

The opening drop runs from Tuesday, October 6 at 9 AM PT to Tuesday, October 13 at 7 AM PT.

Sweat: Do 10 paid sends to 10 unique properties in Upland.
Build: Decorate 5 structures on 5 different properties with Harvest Season Ornaments.

Get moving, give your properties their seasonal look, and put your first two missions on the board. For the Build mission, remember that the five decorated structures must be on five different properties.

What’s Changing This Harvest

This season, all 10 missions are weekly missions, spread across six mission windows. The season-long Influence Score and Residents missions are not returning for Harvest. Your Gamified Earnings mission progress will come from completing the challenges revealed each week.

The mission schedule starts on Tuesday, October 6, rather than on the season’s October 1 opening day. The final mission window closes on Tuesday, November 17 at 7 AM PT.

The format is changing, but the headline earnings targets stay the same: complete any 5 missions for 14.7% annual UPX earnings, or all 10 for the maximum 15.2% for the following season.

Sweat or Build. Pick Your Path.

Every mission this season is labeled Sweat or Build. Sweat missions are experiences, racing, treasure hunting, exploring the map. Build missions are about building in Upland, construction, minting, decorating. Two ways to play Harvest Season.

Choose the missions that fit how you enjoy Upland, or take on the full set and go for the sweep.

A Fresh Drop Every Tuesday

One or two new missions drop every Tuesday at 9 AM PT, starting October 6. Each week’s completion deadline is the following Tuesday at 7 AM PT.

Only the current week’s missions can be completed, and missed missions cannot be recovered. The remaining missions will stay a mystery until their weekly reveal, so check back each Tuesday for your next challenge.

Mission period: October 6 through November 17, 2026. The final weekly window runs November 10–17 and keeps its full Tuesday-to-Tuesday schedule.

Show Up or Go for the Sweep

Complete any 5 of the 10 missions for 14.7% annual UPX earnings in the following season.
Complete all 10 missions for the maximum 15.2% annual UPX earnings in the following season.

You do not have to complete every mission to reach the five-mission tier. Pick your opportunities, finish them within their weekly windows, and keep building your total.

Complete the Harvest Run

Going for every mission? There is a seasonal finish line to chase beyond the earnings tiers.

Completionist Badge: The Completionist Badge, an exclusive reward for players who complete all gamified earnings missions in a season.
This badge is the ultimate mark of dedication and consistency. It’s not just about earnings, it’s a statement. Wear it with pride and show the community that you don’t just play the game, you complete it.
Completionist Block Explorer: Introducing The Final Chapter ’26, A storybook Block Explorer inspired celebrating the theme of Harvest season. The Final Chapter ’26 honors the most dedicated players who completed every Gamified Earnings mission across Harvest Season 2026.

With an activated Harvest Season Pass, completionists can qualify for the seasonal Completionist Block Explorer. The pass’s Wildcard Token automatically covers exactly one missed weekly mission at the end of the season for Block Explorer eligibility.

The Wildcard applies to Completionist Block Explorer eligibility only. It does not add a completed mission to your earnings total: you must directly complete five missions to reach 14.7%, and all ten to reach 15.2%.

A New Season of Trove Discoveries

Weekly missions are only part of what is ahead. Troves are expected to launch during October, bringing a new collecting and progression experience to Upland.

The team is preparing over 500 Troves reaching eight levels deep, alongside a brand-new progression system. That means more discoveries to pursue and a bigger collection to explore as Harvest unfolds.

Make your properties feel like Harvest, take on each week’s missions, and get ready to begin your Trove collection. The exact Troves launch date will be shared once confirmed. Troves are a separate gameplay release, not a reward for completing these missions.

Follow Upland on Discord and X for each Tuesday’s mission reveal and the latest Troves launch news. Your Harvest run starts October 6. Let’s make it count.

How Gamified Earnings Work

Already familiar with Gamified Earnings? You have everything you need above. Here is the full earnings breakdown for players who want a refresher.

Gamified Earnings are forward-looking: missions completed during Harvest determine your annual UPX earning rate for the following season, not the rate you receive during Harvest itself.

1 mission completed (1.2x): 5.88% annual UPX earnings
2 missions completed (1.5x): 7.35% annual UPX earnings
3 missions completed (2x): 9.8% annual UPX earnings
4 missions completed (2.5x): 12.25% annual UPX earnings
5 missions completed (3x):14.7% annual UPX earnings
10 missions completed (3.1x):15.2% annual UPX earnings, the highest tier

Gamified UPX earning introduces a forward-looking reward system where tasks completed in the current season determine the UPX earnings for the following season.

For example, tasks completed during Harvest Season will set the earning rate for the upcoming Wonderland Season. Similarly, activities undertaken in Wonderland Season will influence earnings for the next season, and so on.
