Evaluation

Deus Vult launched into Early Access on May 26, 2017. In the months following launch, raptor lab was actively updating the game — shipping multiple feature patches in May and June 2017, two major content drops in August and November 2017 (each adding new maps and weapons), and tuning gameplay systems throughout. The last developer communication of any kind was the November 19, 2017 update, which added two new maps and a new weapon. Since that date — now more than eight years ago — there have been no patch notes, announcements, devlogs, or any other official communication from the developer. The game remains listed on Steam in Early Access with no 1.0 release, and the developer has never stated whether development is continuing, complete, or abandoned. Given the extreme length of silence with no explanation, the current status of the project is genuinely unknown.
Evidence
Last developer update: added Viking Village and Angkor Temple maps and a new weapon. No official communication from the developer after this date.

About this game

Fight against other medieval warriors all around the world!

Deus Vult is an online medieval fighting game which uses cutting-edge weapon physics to make you feel like a real knight.
The numerous weapons available have each their own behaviour and fighting style: you can keep your enemy at distance with a spear or destroy him at close range with an axe, protect yourself with a shield or take the risk to fight with two swords.

You can defy players online in 1vs1 best of 5 medieval battles. As your level increases, you will unlock a wide choice of weapons and learn to master each of them to slay your opponents. You can customize your hero and take a break from the intense combat to chat with your brave rivals in the tavern.
In Deus Vult, you will discover epic landscapes and a world full of mystery where you will FIGHT FOR GLORY!
