Storage Hunters: Open World, by the verified group Absolute Zero!, is a 2026 open-world auction sim: bid on mystery lockers, haul the loot to your shop, fix it up, and sell it for profit — chasing rare Gold, Diamond, Void, and Rainbow mutations along the way. This hub is the front door to our cluster: the honest codes status, the live Alien Invasion event, every guide, and live player numbers — refreshed August 17, 2026.
Looking for codes? Storage Hunters: Open World has no working codes and no redeem box as of August 16, 2026, and Alien Invasion did not add one. Worth clearing up: the Code Safe people search for is not a redeem code — it is a lockable auction container opened with a Steel Lockpick or the Shopping Mall Locksmith. Our codes page tracks redemption status daily.

The current update is Alien Invasion, a limited event that went live on August 15, 2026 at 19:00 UTC (confirmed on Roblox's own virtual-events listing, hosted by Absolute Zero!). It is why the game's title currently carries a 👽 badge. The wiki's area guide lists an unlock gate of $2,000 net worth, though the wiki's own area-data module records the requirement as just “Event Access” — either way it is a low bar, so almost any player can take part rather than it being an end-game-only zone like the earlier Lucky Beach.
What it adds, verified against the game's wiki as of August 16, 2026: 4 Alien Garages and 3 NPCs (the Alien Boss, the Alien Market Trader, and Rick). The wiki reports alien auctions running on a strict rhythm — a 15-minute window, then a 16-minute gap before the next one opens — which we have not been able to confirm against a second source, so treat the exact timings as provisional. The event's loot pool is cumulative across every area in the game, with the ended Jurassic event excluded.
The headline addition is Alien Coins, a currency that exists only while the invasion runs. The wiki puts the payout at 4 Alien Coins for each Cow you sell to Rick (on top of the cow's normal cash value, which scales with its condition), you pick more up as tips when alien customers buy from your shop, and you can buy them with Robux. They are spent at the Alien Market, where each roll costs 25 Alien Coins and returns one random Alien Potion. Complete the full Alien Invasion index and you are awarded the Limited Xenologist title. Our free Robux guide covers how to bankroll the cow-farming route fastest.
What's next for Storage Hunters: Open World?
Alien Invasion is listed to end on August 22, 2026 at 19:00 UTC — that is the end time on the developers' own Roblox event listing, re-checked August 17, 2026. Two things back it up: the devs posted a second event, titled simply “Next Update” with the description “Coming Soon,” that starts the very minute the alien listing expires, and August 1, 8, 15 and 22 are all consecutive Saturdays at 19:00 UTC. The Fandom wiki instead prints August 29 or 30 — and contradicts itself across three of its own pages — so we follow the developer. Roblox event listings do sometimes get extended, so treat August 22 as the earliest likely close: if you want the Limited Xenologist title or Alien Market potions, bank them before then, since Alien Coins become unobtainable once the invasion ends. Full patch notes are on our Storage Hunters: Open World update log.
Beyond the event, no next update has been named or dated as of August 16, 2026. Absolute Zero! ships on a near-weekly cadence and usually teases a drop as a banner before patch notes land. We won't guess at contents — when the next update lands we'll fold it into this hub.
