Game Update v 1.120 [August 2026]

Hi Zwifters,

Phased release of game version 1.120 begins today to macOS / Windows / Android devices.
Phased release to iOS / tvOS devices begins tomorrow.

All Platforms
The following routes now have achievement badges and XP available for runners:

  • Flat Route Run (390 XP)
  • Loop de Loop Run (250 XP)
  • Volcano Flat Run (480 XP)
  • Beach Island Loop Run (510 XP)

The following new wheels are available in the Drop Shop:

  • Shimano C36 (Aero: :star::star::star::star:, Weight: :star::star::star::star:) - Requires level 6 and 600,000 Drops.
  • Shimano C50 (Aero: :star::star::star::star:, Weight: :star::star::star::star:) - Requires level 10 and 650,000 Drops.
  • Shimano C60 (Aero: :star::star::star::star:, Weight: :star::star::star::star:) - Requires level 12 and 650,000 Drops.
  • Shimano C99(Aero: :star::star::star::star:, Weight: :star:) - Requires level 28 and 900,000 Drops.
    These new wheels replace the previous Shimano Dura-Ace C36, C50, and C60 wheels which are no longer available for purchase in the Drop Shop, but remain in the Garage for Zwifters who already own them. See this thread for more details.

Zwifters can now deselect all screenshots at the end of an activity (previously one screenshot was required).

Route sorting preferences are now saved between sessions and shared between cycling and running modes.

Fixed an issue that could cause a ride leader’s name to be shown in on-screen messages as ‘Ride Leader’ if certain emojis were included in their name.

Fixed an issue that could cause custom bike colors to be reset when changing paint jobs / colorways.

When swapping bike frames, the wheels that were last used with that frame will also be restored.

macOS
Fixed an issue that could potentially cause Zwifters on macOS 15 or later to not see the Local Network and Bluetooth permission prompt when pairing devices.

UPDATE August 19
Phased rollout to macOS / Windows / Android continues.
Phased rollout to iOS / tvOS has begun.

UPDATE August 20
Phased rollout is complete to all OS platforms.

Any time frame on the polishing to the S-Works SL9 and does that increase the speed in either the climbing or the flats ? Does it also mean it looks different ? Thank you

Wow, what can’t these new Dura Ace wheels do?! :laughing:

Would be nice if we could swap them for the new ones if we dont want to keep the old ones.

This also makes a way to clean up our garage more and more wanted and needed.

Even if there’s an upgrade charge this would be nice.

I’m having a hard time understanding your question. Can you please reiterate?

According to Zwift Insider :
*Important note: sources in Zwift tell us the new SL9 will get a “polishing” in an upcoming release, making it a bit more aerodynamic than the initial release.

thanks! I didn’t see that note.

Thats the one I saw , was wondering when the upcoming release was .

Can we please get a way to disable the stupid level up animation so we don’t have to hear about it every day when we are accelerating?

I would say it’s the dumbest thing Zwift ever implemented, but there’s a long list of stuff in competition for that slot.

Sadly enough it looks like Zwift decides what we like/need/want.

I would love to have way more options to turn things off I dont like/need/want.

Its probably the #1 thing on my list of things I would like to see changed in Zwift.

The main UI is also now recommending Makuri Islands on the top right of the Home Page. Interesting

i actually love the animation. I think it’s a great way to celebrate progression.

Comment around 100+ congratulation messages per group ride are noted.

PS: Heads on that group ride look a bit small.

But there are plenty who don’t. Why not give us a choice and make everyone happy ?

There are plenty of games out there where you have options to turn effects or visuals on or off with just a little checkbox.
Level Celebration animation on [ ] off [X]

its not that hard.

Don’t you want to know when a certain well known big distance rider reaches level 200?

I ignore the level up animations, there are only few riders nearby and if there is a sound, I don’t hear it as volume is off.

That isn’t how it works. Remember how users wanted to mandatory turn off coffee stop icons for everyone, rather than just letting individual users choose what they want to see.
