Evaluation
Gurgamoth launched on February 16, 2016 and received post-launch updates, including the addition of bots on April 20, 2016. The most recent developer communication came on September 5, 2019, when Galvanic Games announced a Nintendo Switch port of Gurgamoth — indicating the game was still receiving platform support at that time. That same post also announced the studio's next game, Some Distant Memory, signaling that Galvanic had shifted its primary focus to a new project. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no announced future content for Gurgamoth, and no developer communications since September 5, 2019. The store description contains no indication of planned updates or ongoing content. The game appears to have shipped as a complete product and reached the end of its active update cycle no later than the Switch port announcement in September 2019.
Evidence
Galvanic Games announced Gurgamoth on Nintendo Switch and simultaneously revealed their next game, Some Distant Memory — signaling a studio pivot away from Gurgamoth. This is the last official communication from the developer.
Post-launch update added bot support (normal and hard difficulty), one of the most-requested features since launch.

About this game
Note: Gurgamoth requires controllers to play
Gurgamoth is the perfect mix of party chaos and competitive strategy, ideal for sitting around on the couch with a couple of friends.
Your only weapon is the level itself: a shifting battlefield with different hazards. Gurgamoth is fast, relying on quick timing, but also your ability to read your opponent. Will they dodge your attack and send you flying into a spinning saw blade? Will they spend their attacks on a power up, leaving them temporarily vulnerable? Will they anticipate your attack and stun you while you're recovering?
Get inside their minds and earn the honor of awakening Gurgamoth.
