Evaluation

Pro Gamer Manager launched on April 28, 2016. The developer (501 Industries / Raptor Claw Games) shipped one post-launch DLC — the "Firefight DLC" on December 20, 2016 — which added significant gameplay improvements including AI simulation, a leveling system, character creation, and dynamic league tables. By January 2017, the developer publicly acknowledged that both the original game and the Firefight DLC had fallen short of what they intended to deliver. Rather than continuing to patch the original game, they announced a full sequel — Pro Gamer Manager 2 — built from scratch. All subsequent developer activity from early 2017 onward was focused entirely on PGM2, which launched on Steam Early Access on October 6, 2017. The original Pro Gamer Manager received no further updates after the Firefight DLC in December 2016. The developer explicitly stated they had moved on and directed all resources to the sequel. No further content was announced or shipped for the original game. The store description contains no references to planned updates or additional content, and the DLC list shows only released items. The game is complete as of the Firefight DLC release in December 2016. Anyone interested in the concept would likely be better served by looking at Pro Gamer Manager 2.
