Shopware 6.7 Release Candidate 1 – now available

We’re excited to share that the Release Candidate (RC) for Shopware 6.7 is now available! This RC marks a significant step toward the official launch of Shopware 6.7, scheduled for May 14, 2025.

Key dates

  • March 24, 2025: Release Candidate 1 (RC1) of Shopware 6.7 is available.

  • May 14, 2025: Official release of Shopware 6.7. *

Known issues

While there are still open issues that will be fixed until the final release of Shopware 6.7, the Release Candidate is ready to be used for starting to upgrade and test your extensions and stores for the new major. Here’s the way to go:

Notable changes in Shopware 6.7

  • Migration from Webpack to Vite: We've transitioned our administration build system from Webpack to Vite. If your extensions rely on a custom webpack.config.js, you'll need to migrate to a vite.config.js. Detailed guidance is available in our documentation.

  • Vue.js enhancements: The Vue 2 compatibility layer has been removed, and we've migrated from Vuex to Pinia for state management. Please update your extensions accordingly to align with these changes. More information in the official upgrade guide.

  • Cache rework: Cache invalidation is now delayed by default, improving efficiency and scalability. The default interval is set to 5 minutes but can be adjusted via the shopware.invalidate_cache scheduled task.

A full overview of the technical changes are available on GitHub.

Assistance with extension upgrading

We’ve developed a tool to simplify extension upgrades. While still in development, it already offers powerful features:

  • Linting

  • Automatic fixes

  • Formatting

The idea of this tool is to automatically find issues in your extensions, fix them automatically and also format the code. Please refer to GitHub for further info. The tool can automatically adjust your extension’s codebase for 6.7 compatibility, significantly reducing manual effort.

Feedback and collaboration

We encourage you to test this RC thoroughly and provide feedback. Your insights are making the release of Shopware 6.7 better for everyone. Join our Slack and visit the channel #feedback-release-6_7 to share your experiences and collaborate with others preparing for this major release.

If you are an extension developer selling your extensions through the Shopware Store, this is the perfect opportunity to start making your extensions compatible with the 6.7 major release.

Reporting issues

To report an issue, please first check if it already exists on GitHub Issues. You can use the in:body search syntax to find specific text (e.g., is:issue state:open in:body Foo Bar). Need help? Our community on Slack is happy to assist!

Final note:

The Release Candidate is intended for evaluation purposes and should not be used in production environments. This period allows you to adapt, explore the changes, and provide valuable feedback. Your contributions ensure a smooth transition to the official release of Shopware 6.7.

Thank you for your continued support and collaboration.


*The release date might change, depending on the feedback we receive from the community during the RC phase.
