The Rebuild of Evangelion films are kind of like the George Lucas Star Wars films in that they get altered with almost every new release.
The following are all the different versions of each film (listed with their Japanese title since the English title is what notes the difference between each version) and when and where they were released.
This list will be sorted by how they were numbered and not their actual release dates so bear with me.

- 3.333
Released exclusively in IMAX on January 9, 2021. To be released on 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray in August 25, 2021.
Shin Evangelion Theatrical Edition :𝄂 (Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time)
- 3.0+1.0
Released theatrically on March 8, 2021. Also released in IMAX, MX4D, 4DX and Dolby Cinema. Lost.
- 3.0+1.01
Released theatrically as an extended run on June 12, 2021. To be released on Amazon Prime Video internationally.
So far, the only versions available right now are 1.01, 1.11, 2.22 and 3.33 (with 3.333 to be released soon) but all of the other versions of Evangelion are unavailable to most people.
What is most curious are the TV versions since they have lower numbers than the home video releases but they have prime symbols signifying that they are most likely more than just censored TV broadcast versions and they have some exclusive changes.
The television versions (1.01', 1.01'', 2.02', 2.02'', 2.02''', 3.03', 3.03'', 3.03'') were never released on home video and neither were the theatrical releases (1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.0+1.0, 3.0+1.01)
2.22 NOGUCHI ver. is not available on home video but its only difference compared to the regular 2.22 is that the "I Would Give You Anything" climax is edited differently, and this alternate version of the scene is present as an extra on the Blu-ray.
Shin Evangelion is not out on home video in any form as of now but it is safe to say that there will be yet another version when it comes out on home video, thereby making the 3.0+1.0 and 3.0+1.01 versions lost media.
According to Japanese Wikipedia, the TV versions are actually longer than the theatrical versions and the home video versions with higher numbers.
1.0 and 1.01 were 98 minutes long, 1.11 was 101 minutes long and both 1.01' and 1.01'' were both 114 minutes long. 2.0 was 108 minutes long, 2.22 was 112 minutes long while 2.02', 2.02'' and 2.02''' are all 114 minutes long. 3.0, 3.33 and 3.333 are all 95 minutes long but 3.03' and 3.03'' are both 114 minutes long.
What Khara could have added to make these TV versions longer (other than commercials) is a mystery but that is what we are here for.
And for some other Rebuild of Evangelion lost media, the original English dub of Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo which was apparently a terrible one is lost. A redone dub with Studio Khara's assistance was included on the 3.33 Blu-ray alongside both original and redone English subtitle translations but it does not include the original English dub.
The following are all the different versions of each film (listed with their Japanese title since the English title is what notes the difference between each version) and when and where they were released.
