how to manage version numbers

Hi everyone, I’d like to get some advice on how to manage version numbers. My game is currently at version 1.1.2. After this, I’m planning to add a completely different new mode (which connects to the main story). How should I arrange the versioning for this mode? If the mode includes a full set of 9 stages but I plan to release them one by one, how should the version numbers be handled then? Right now, I’m leaning toward making the full version 2.0, but I don’t have much experience in this area, so I’m not sure if that’s appropriate.

You should be able to name versions however you want in the way that makes the most amount of sense to you. 

If you're at version 1.1.2 then you could make this new game mode 1.5. From there you can make each stage 1.5.1 for stage 1 and 1.5.9 for stage 9.
