Evaluation
REVEREND is a retro first-person shooter that launched on July 15, 2024. It received a soundtrack DLC (released February 27, 2025) and a notable "Ascension" patch on April 15, 2025 that added Steam achievements, quality-of-life improvements, and enemy balancing tweaks.
The developer's own communications make clear that REVEREND itself is a finished product. The April 2025 patch notes describe the work as ascending the game "from its original release to something a bit more polished," and refer to achievements as being added "into a finished project." The one-year anniversary post (July 15, 2025) is warm and reflective, with no mention of further content for REVEREND specifically.
The studio's focus has now fully shifted to its next project. The one-year anniversary post mentions being "knee deep into development on the next thing," and the most recent developer communication — a June 15, 2026 post about trading cards, badges, and emotes — closes with: "Enjoy, while we once again focus 100% on Surf n Sin!" This makes it clear the team has moved on.
The December 2024 announcement of REVEREND II is for a separate, sequel game — not additional content for this title. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no announced expansions, and no roadmap for further REVEREND updates. The only DLC (the soundtrack) has been released.
Evidence
Developer releases trading cards, badges, and emotes, then states the team is focusing '100% on Surf n Sin' — their next game.
One-year anniversary post reflects on REVEREND's launch. Developer notes they and others are 'knee deep into development on the next thing,' signaling REVEREND itself is complete.

About this game
From the twisted mind of TROMA Shorts Creator Emil Levin comes a new old-school first-person shooter paying homage to genre classics such as Blood, Duke Nukem 3D and Rise of the Triad.
REVEREND puts you in the boots of a disillusioned former reverend, tasked with fighting back against the evil lurking beneath the church he once called home. Battle against Eldritch and Demonic beasts that would cripple the average mind to witness.
Visit varied nightmarish locations ranging from crematoriums to flesh-pits. Use powerful and distinctive weaponry, including forbidden fruit which explode upon contact with the horrors surrounding you. Hunt for keys and scavenge for resources to keep you alive and get you closer to your goal. Also, keep an eye out for secrets, as easter eggs, resources and secret pathways make exploration a strong recommendation.
