    I am using Unity 2021.3.15f1.
    This version of package manager supports the addressable asset system up to 1.19.19

    However, looking at Unity Addressable Assets documentation, the latest version, 1.21+, is listed as 2019.4+.
    Link : https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.addressables@1.21/manual/index.html

    In order to solve the WaitForCompletion bug, the revision history of version 1.21.1 is required.
    • Fixed issue where loading cached bundles using WaitForCompletion in 2021.2+ results in an error.

    How do I update the Addressable Asset System?

    Also looking for this, Just created a new project in 2021.3.16 and it only goes up to 1.19.19 despite the documentation stating otherwise.

    I also needed fix for that bug. I just manually bumped the version in Packages/manifest.json, seems to work
    ...
    "com.unity.addressables": "1.21.2",
    ...

    Hi all yes in this case you will need to manually modify your Packages/manifest.json to use the new version.

    After updating manually, checked that it works well.
    By any chance, are there any plans to support updates in the package manager?

    Sorry, but can you explain why we need to modify the manifest.json for 2021.3 manually?

    Hi, is there any plan to fix this problem? Proposed addressables package (1.19.19) is broken in the latest version of Unity 2021.3 LTS, due to changes in guistyles names (no search bar in windows related with addressables).

    It doesn't have sense to force users to change it manually in manifest.json.

    I've encountered this for months now too, but adjusting the manifest.json Addressables version to 1.21.17 resolved the issue! Judging from lack of response/reply from Unity's end, I think this is all we can work with for the time being.

    bump.
    What is the reason why the version of Addressables can only go up to 1.19.19 when using PackageManager?

    1.21 2019.4+
    1.20 2019.4+
    1.19 2019.4+
    So it says, if I install Addressables with PackageManager, it should be 1.21.
    Or is it because the STABLE version is 1.19.19? 1.20 and 1.21 are not officially supported?

    This thread has been unresolved for about a year, even though I think it is quite important,
    Is there any kind of reply from Unity official? please...
