Evaluation

Kingshunt launched into Early Access on November 3, 2022 as a free-to-play competitive online multiplayer game. The developer, Vaki Games, shipped several hotfixes and feature patches in the weeks following launch, and ran a Winterfest seasonal event in December 2022. However, on December 22, 2022 — less than two months after launch — Vaki Games announced they were shutting down the game's servers on January 6, 2023, disabling all in-game purchases, and ceasing all further updates. The team cited the challenge of simultaneously developing new content and running a live game as a small indie studio. They described the shutdown as temporary, with plans to rebuild the game with additional heroes and game modes before relaunching — but that return has never materialized. There has been no official communication from Vaki Games since December 22, 2022. The game's Steam page remains live and the listing is still purchasable, but the online servers that the game requires to function have been offline since January 2023. The game is effectively unplayable in its intended form, and its development future remains entirely unresolved.
Evidence
Vaki Games announced they are pulling Kingshunt from Steam, shutting down servers on January 6, 2023, and issuing no further updates or patches. They framed the decision as temporary, stating intent to rebuild the game before relaunching, but no return date was given.

About this game



Kingshunt is a third person tactical arena brawler set in a dark fantasy world. Form a team of five, choose your hero and take the fight to the enemy in this competitive online multiplayer game. Summon powerful minions and towers to combat the enemy team.

Player Controlled Minions and Towers

The first of its kind in the MOBA genre, every player has agency with the ability to deploy fierce minions and place formidable towers. This adds a whole new level of strategy to the category unseen before.

Conquest Game mode

Conquest is a 5 vs 5 PvP game mode where two teams fight for control of the battlefield by taking objectives and eliminating enemy players. There are three control points: one in the center and two at the sides. The first team to eliminate the enemy team’s players is victorious. Both teams' objective is to reach 1500 points so the enemy team goes to Faltering and can’t respawn. Tickets are earned by holding objectives, eliminating enemy minions and players, and destroying enemy lane structures.

Customizable Heroes

Choose from more than a dozen powerful and unique Heroes. These dark fantasy-themed characters can fit any playstyle with, skill-based ranged casters, brutal melee weapon-wielding tanks or specialized support classes that can heal and buff their team. Customize all of them with powerful Runes that unlock unique playstyles.
