Patch Notes

What’s new on Sportdle - new leagues, modes and improvements.

Challenge friends in every mode + patch notes

  • Friend challenges now work in almost every mode - Classic, Team, Circuits, Clue Ladder, Career Path, Stat Line and Silhouette. Pick the answer, send the link, and your friend plays that exact puzzle in that mode.
  • The challenge button on each game page now creates a challenge for the mode you're on, not just Classic.
  • Added this patch notes page so you can see what's new.
  • Cleaner game boards: team logos were removed from clue cells and career paths - team names and abbreviations carry the info now.
  • Faster, steadier pages: fixed the homepage layout jump when the league cards loaded.

Player data corrections

  • Fixed a batch of player mistakes reported by the community - wrong teams, positions and birth years across several leagues.

MotoGP joins the grid

  • New league: MotoGP - guess premier-class riders from 2000 onward, plus a separate Circuits mode for the calendar's tracks.

Silhouette is back

  • Silhouette mode relaunched with a blur effect and rights-clean photos - each wrong guess sharpens the image.
  • Richer share cards when you post your results.

Friend challenges

  • New: challenge a friend - pick a player and send a link with the answer hidden. They get the same clue grid you know from the daily.

Grid mode

  • New mode: Grid - a daily 3x3 criteria puzzle. Nine guesses, one grid, and rarity scoring that rewards deep cuts.
  • Jersey avatars replaced player photos across the games.

Team mode

  • New mode: Team - guess the team instead of a player, from clues like conference, division, city, founded year and titles. Live for NBA, NHL, NFL and Premier League.
  • World Cup 2026 squads refreshed.

Seven new games + homepage redesign

  • New leagues: UFC, FNC, World Cup 2026, League of Legends, CS2, Dota 2 and Valorant.
  • Redesigned homepage with sport filters and favorites.

Tennis joins Sportdle

  • New league: Tennis - daily ATP and WTA puzzles with Classic, Clue Ladder and Stat Line modes.
  • Added a cm/ft unit toggle for height clues.

ABA League + install as app
