Cocos Creator v2.4.9 focused on fixing some 2.x related problems recently discovered, focusing on improving the stability of the editor and engine. And solved some of the obstacles affecting games published on the native mobile platform. It is recommended that all 2.x users upgrade. This version has not broken the compatibility of projects and plugins. Please refer to the upgrade instructions of 2.4.7 to update.

We will continue to deliver critical bug fixes in 2022, as announced during the 3.0 general release. These fixes will only be optimized around stability and usability, so it is no longer recommended for new users or new projects to choose 2.4. Please use the 3.x version for development.
