Godhood

Godhood launched into Early Access in 2019, received several major updates, and reached its 1.0 release on August 11, 2020. Following the 1.0 launch, the developer shipped one post-release update (Update 1.1 on October 9, 2020) and announced that Update 1.2 was in progress for early 2021. However, that 2021 update appears to have been the last planned content work for the game. The developer's own retrospective post from May 2022 (NEWS-2) tells the story clearly: Godhood was a difficult and costly project that nearly broke the studio. By December 2020, the team had shrunk to just three people, and they were already pivoting their focus toward new projects in the spirit of their earlier games, Reus and Renowned Explorers. The May 2022 post describes Godhood in the past tense as a learning experience, with the studio's "love for culture, history and human development" carrying forward into future work — not back into Godhood. By May 2024, Abbey Games announced Reus 2 (NEWS-1), their next game, launching that same month. The post thanks Godhood players and frames the new title as the next chapter for the studio, with no mention of any ongoing or future Godhood content. The two DLC items on the store — a Soundtrack and an Artbook — both released on October 9, 2020, alongside Update 1.1. There are no unreleased DLC entries. The developer has not announced any additional content for Godhood since 2020, and all studio communications since then point firmly toward new projects. Update 1.2 was the last planned addition; while no specific completion announcement was made, the developer's statements and complete silence on Godhood content since early 2021 make clear the game is finished. The estimated completion date reflects the approximate delivery of Update 1.2 in early 2021 (using February 2021 as the midpoint of "early 2021").
