How to Update ROS Legacy and Keep Your Progress

Install over the top, let your account do its job, and never lose a season to an uninstall again.

Updates in a live revival are routine, and losing progress to one should be impossible. It nearly is, provided you follow the one rule this guide exists to state. The current build is always the one on the ROS Legacy download page, with its version in the homepage details table.

The over-the-top rule

Download the new file and install it directly over your existing copy. Never uninstall first. Your progress, settings and identity belong to your Mirae Labs account, and the over-the-top install keeps the app's local side intact as well, so an update costs two minutes and changes nothing you own.

After the update

Sign in if asked, glance at your settings (updates occasionally tidy menus), and check whether anything new wants downloading, like map data. Then play a casual match before a ranked one, the same advice as after any change to your setup.

When updates go wrong

Almost always, a failed update is a partial download wearing a disguise. Check the file size against the table, fetch the file again on a steadier connection, and install it over the top once more. Your account makes even a full reinstall survivable, which is exactly what it is for. Update over the top and ROS Legacy keeps everything you earned.

Keep driving

When you want it on your phone, the ROS Legacy download page has the verified file waiting.

Quick Answers

Will updating delete my progress?

No. Progress belongs to your account, and installing over the top preserves the local side too.

How do I know I am behind?

Compare the version in the homepage details table with the build shown in your game.

Should I update mid-season?

Yes. Live games assume the current build for events, modes and matchmaking.
