Evaluation
Battle Worlds: Kronos launched on November 4, 2013. After release, KING Art delivered a series of patches and feature updates through early 2014, culminating in the free "Trains" DLC on May 23, 2014 — a substantial addition that included a new single-player campaign (~15 hours), four new unit types, new multiplayer maps, and a challenge map. The store description explicitly notes that the Trains DLC is included with the game. The last recorded developer communication was a bug fix patch (version 1.4.3) on January 27, 2015. There have been no developer posts, announcements, roadmaps, or DLC listings of any kind since that date. No unreleased DLC exists on the store. The game shipped with a well-defined, finite content set and the developer has not communicated any plans for further content. With over 11 years of silence since the last update, the game is complete as originally designed and delivered.
