Summary: The Godot engine team published 4.7 stable on 2026-06-18, a feature release that preserves compatibility with the 4.x line. Headline changes include HDR output on Windows, macOS, iOS, visionOS, and Linux/Wayland, an AreaLight3D node, a redesigned Asset Store, standalone Android export through a GABE companion app, GDScript implementing Java interfaces, a VirtualJoystick node with gyro aiming, and day-one Android XR and Steam Frame support with Vulkan subsampled foveated rendering. The team recommends reviewing the migration guide for breaking changes before upgrading existing projects.
Why it matters: Godot is a widely used open-source game engine, and 4.7 broadens its mobile, XR, and HDR reach without breaking the 4.x compatibility line.
