Evaluation

America's Army: Proving Grounds launched in August 2013 and received years of content updates including new maps, game modes, weapons, and platform support. However, the developer explicitly ended official support on May 5, 2022. The final patch notes published on May 3, 2022 stated: "Thank you for helping us make the final version of AA:PG on PC the best it can be." The official servers were shut down on that date, and the developer made clear this was the end of active development and support. Private servers via Steam remain accessible for the community, but no further content or updates are planned. The game is complete as of the official shutdown date of May 5, 2022.
Evidence
Developer explicitly called this the last hotfix, thanking players for 'helping us make the final version of AA:PG on PC the best it can be.' Official servers and support were shut down on May 5th, 2022, with only community-run private servers remaining.
