Evaluation

Running Dead launched on March 3, 2017. In the weeks following launch, the developer was active — shipping a gameplay patch on March 4, a feature update on March 5, and a more substantial patch on March 12, 2017 that added the ability to buy zombies mid-battle. A final bug fix was posted on October 27, 2017, addressing an enemy-spawning issue. That is the last recorded developer communication. No updates, announcements, roadmaps, or new content have been posted since October 27, 2017. The store description presents a fixed set of content (6 zombie types, 9 humans, 10 items, 14 abilities) with no mention of upcoming additions. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no announced future content, and no developer statements about ongoing development. The game appears to have launched as a complete, self-contained product and received only early post-launch maintenance before going quiet.
Evidence
