Evaluation
Apotheon launched on February 3, 2015 as a complete single-player action RPG. Shortly after launch, the developers added Mac and Linux support (February 10, 2015) and an online multiplayer beta (April 15, 2015), which was then officially released as a free standalone game called Apotheon Arena on December 8, 2015. That multiplayer release represents the last meaningful content addition to the game. Since December 2015, all developer communications on the Apotheon page have been announcements for entirely separate games — Wytchwood and GUNHEAD — rather than any new content for Apotheon itself. The only DLC ever released was the official soundtrack, which shipped on launch day. There is no unreleased DLC, no announced future content, and no post-2015 development activity for Apotheon. The game launched as a complete product and received its final content update in December 2015.
Evidence
Apotheon Arena released as a free standalone multiplayer game. This is the last content release associated with Apotheon.
Developer announces GUNHEAD, another new project — further confirming Alientrap's focus has fully shifted away from Apotheon.

About this game
The Gods of Olympus have abandoned humanity, leaving you to perish without their benevolence. Take up arms against the Gods, climb Mount Olympus, and take their divine powers for yourself to ensure mankind’s survival!
Apotheon is a fast and brutal 2D action game with a striking art style and heroic narrative based on Ancient Greek Mythology.
Features:
-Brutal and bloody bronze-aged combat! Slay your enemies with swords, spears, arrows, and other ancient weapons of war.
-Explore the massive open world of Mount Olympus! Battle mythical beings and search for divine treasure across the Forests of Artemis, the Palaces of Apollo, and other sanctuaries of the Gods.
-Guide the rise of Nikandreos, humanity’s last hero. Interact with a colourful cast of fully voiced legendary characters throughout a rich single-player experience.
-Challenge your friends to single combat! In one versus one local multiplayer, pit your skills against other would-be heroes of Greece.
-Learn a little about Greek Mythology! Apotheon tries to stay true to its source material. Read an excerpt from the Iliad about Diomedes before you stick a Xiphos through his Aspis.
