It looks like they are rolling them out every few months; I would not be too hopeful of a new one soon, however, as its taken over a year for 7 badges to be made available!

No currently there are 7 badges available and I have completed them all yet only have 220/500 points so I am not even close to gaining my gold badge unfortunately. It feels like a waste of time especially when majority of my classmates still don't even have their bronze badge and I have gone as far as I can go but I know it won’t even get recognised

As of December 2025, there are still 7 badges. Hopefully they have enough to get the badge within the next year, although it isn't very probable as they started around 2022/3 and only got around to 7 within the last 3/4 years.
