Laravel 13.35.0

Laravel 13.35.0 dropped on October 6, 2026, and it is a tidy batch of the small but thoughtful changes the framework does best. Nothing rebooted, everything refined.

Query Quickness

Route::query() is the new entry point for HTTP QUERY routes, giving you a cleaner way to build search and filter endpoints without reaching for a controller or cluttering your route file.

Model Defaults

Eloquent models gain an opt-in defaults() method. Set sensible default attribute values at the model level and let your migrations and seeders stay lean. It means one less place to repeat yourself.

Bug Bashes and Faker Fixes

Fake assertions can now accept property arrays, and percentage-based worker memory limits give long-running queue workers a gentler path to a graceful stop. A one-line setting also keeps scheduled jobs from duplicating across a fleet, so every task stays on a single server.

Upgrade at Your Pace

The 13.35.0 changes are additive, so an existing 13.x app can upgrade with familiar steps: pull dependencies, run the test suite, and ship. Do not delay past your next release cadence.
