Evaluation

Mordheim: City of the Damned launched into full release on November 19, 2015 after a period in Early Access. Following launch, the developer shipped a series of DLC packs and patches throughout 2016: two hired sword DLCs (Globadier and Smuggler) in February, two more character DLCs (Wolf-Priest of Ulric and Doomweaver) in April, the Witch Hunters warband DLC in June, and finally the Undead warband DLC in October 2016 — the last piece of paid content released for the game. All six DLC items listed on the store are marked as released, with the most recent dated October 25, 2016. There are no unreleased DLC entries. After the Undead DLC shipped in October 2016, developer communication became sparse. The most recent official post, from December 14, 2020, was not about Mordheim content at all — it was a promotional announcement offering Mordheim owners a loyalty discount on Rogue Factor's newer game, Necromunda: Underhive Wars. This is a strong signal that the studio had moved on to new projects. No further content, patches, or roadmap items have been communicated for Mordheim since October 2016. The game was delivered as a complete package with its full complement of DLC, and the developer's attention has clearly shifted elsewhere. The game is considered content-complete as of the Undead DLC release on October 25, 2016.
Evidence
The most recent developer post (December 14, 2020) is a cross-promotion for Necromunda: Underhive Wars, Rogue Factor's next game — not an announcement of new Mordheim content. This indicates the studio moved on after 2016.

About this game

Mordheim: City of the Damned is the first video game adaptation of Games Workshop's cult classic tabletop game Mordheim. Set in the Warhammer World's decimated Empire city, Mordheim: City of the Damned is a turn-based tactical game where you lead warbands into bloody and lethal skirmishes. The game blends RPG elements, fast-paced tactical combat and intricate unit customization in a time wrought by chaos and rivalry where only the strongest survive.

After a twin tailed comet crashed on Mordheim, the City of Damned turned into a terrifying battlefield where rival warbands fight fiercely for the control of key neighborhoods, looking for glory and fortune by acquiring the very valuable Wyrdstone fragments.

Choose from iconic Mordheim warbands - Sisters of Sigmar, the Cult of the Possessed, Skaven, Mercenaries from the Empire - and lead your troops to battle. Recruit new units, equip them with enhanced gear. Evolve and customize your warband with the experience gained from each successful mission, transforming them into a terrifying force on the battlefield.

Devise the best strategy to annihilate your rivals. If you fail, some of your units might lose a limb... or worse. Keep in mind that in Mordheim: City of the Damned, a dead unit is lost forever! Consider the environment when formulating your battle strategy, exploiting the unique buildings, ruins or the layout of the streets. Deploy your troops carefully and anticipate the actions of your adversaries to set up ambushes! Organize ingenious battle plans where the talents of your units will be as important as your own luck during key moments of combat.

Loot items and weapons hidden in the ruins, or steal those of fallen opponents. Survive the dangers that abound in the City of the Damned and collect as many Wyrdstones as you can, but remain ever vigilant. Mordheim is one of the most treacherous places in the Warhammer World!

In these epic battles where fame and glory await, your strategy will definitely be your best ally! Visit the four corners of the City of the Damned to complete multiple missions in the solo campaign, or challenge other players in enthralling multiplayer modes.
