Phaser v4.1.0

[photonstorm]

Version 4.1.0 - Salusa - 30th April 2026

New Features

• RenderConfig#mipmapRegeneration option allows certain framebuffer-based objects to use mipmaps if the game is configured to use mipmaps. This has a cost because mipmaps must be recreated after every change. Currently it only applies to DynamicTextures; Filters cannot render mipmaps. Thanks @flow!
• Layer is now a true GameObject. This fixes numerous small inconsistencies, and some big issues such as Filters not working. Thanks @rexrainbow for reporting the initial issue!
• The base filter Controller now has getPaddingCeil(), which returns the ceiling of the current padding. This is mostly used internally to avoid quality loss from fractional padding. If your code calls getPadding() on a filter controller (typically in a custom render node), you should replace it with getPaddingCeil().

Fixes

• Fix reversions in rounded rectangle handling. Thanks @laineus!
• Remove duplicate function definition and exposed internal code docs from RectangleCanvasRenderer.
• Fix duplicate texture name resulting from RenderTexture#saveTexture. Thanks @UnaiNeuronUp!
• Fix framebuffers (in filters and DynamicTextures) using mipmaps incorrectly. Now filters do not render with mipmaps. Thanks @flow!
• Fix lack of default export in ESM build. Thanks @kibertoad!
• Fix lack of Class and LOG_VERSION export in ESM build. Thanks to many users including @flow and @rex for helping investigate this!
• Fix Utils.Array.GetRandom often returning null if only startIndex was specified. Now it always returns an array element if part of the array is within range, as documented.
