Evaluation
ArcheBlade has a complex but ultimately concluded development history. The original developer, CodeBrush Games, announced on May 12, 2014 that they were halting all development and shutting down their servers due to financial difficulties — just weeks after the game's official launch on April 25, 2014. A final patch (1.0.3.0) followed on May 23, 2014, which CodeBrush explicitly described as "probably going to be our last." By September 2014, the CodeBrush team had formally moved on to a new project (DICETINY), with the future of ArcheBlade described as "very much unclear."
Development was later picked up by a volunteer community team, as announced on October 11, 2017. This community team shipped two further updates: a feature patch on October 29, 2017 (V1.0.4.0027) and another on January 22, 2018 (V1.0.5.0020), which the community team described as the "first update of this year" and mentioned continued work on servers and content. However, that January 22, 2018 post is the last official communication from any development party. There have been no further updates, announcements, or developer communications of any kind since that date — over eight years ago as of June 2026.
The community team's January 2018 post mentioned that "more updates are on the way," but given the complete silence since then — well beyond any reasonable expectation of continued activity — those plans were never realized. The game launched as a finished product in its current state, with the last meaningful content and balance work delivered on January 22, 2018.
Evidence
Community team shipped update V1.0.5.0020 with bug fixes and the first balance changes in nearly four years. Stated 'more updates are on the way' and mentioned continued work on servers and content. This is the last official communication from any development party.
A community volunteer team announced they had taken over development of ArcheBlade, with CodeBrush no longer able to continue. The team expressed intent to continue adding content and balance fixes.

With more than 500 items available, you can customize your character to your preference. People will definitely notice you when you have items on.
From Team Deathmatch and Capture the Base to Free for All and Team Last Man Standing, each game mode has a different goal to accomplish. One more thing to remember. Always watch your surroundings when you play in a map as you may get hit by a train, or lose a step and fall off the bridge. More game modes will be added in the future so please stay tuned.
Capture the Base
Work as a team and defeat the opposing side by capturing the bases scattered around in the map. Protect your bases or teammates when they’re capturing. Be on the lookout as you are capturing, there may be someone to interrupt you right at the end.
Team Last Man Standing
The team with the most round wins will prevail. Be careful as there are no respawns during rounds. There’s nothing like being the last survivor and deliver a win for your teammates at the end while they’re all watching you.
Free for All
No more friendship, just killing. Are you the type that prefers being a lone wolf? This is just for you. The rule is simple. The one who gets the most kills wins the match. Careful though as there are wolves lurking in the shadow ready to steal your kill.
Team Deathmatch
A team with more kills wins the match. To get a kill is the biggest contribution you can make to your team here. Be a support or that guy who’s always at the very front of battle. Whatever gets kills is good for the team.
