Evaluation

ScourgeBringer left Early Access and launched at version 1.0 on October 21, 2020, packed with a substantial final content update. Following that launch, the developer shipped two additional post-launch updates: Update 1.50 on January 27, 2021 (adding quality-of-life features like adaptive difficulty, save-during-runs, and an achievements menu) and Update 1.60 on June 7, 2021 (adding modding tools and minor fixes). After June 2021, developer communication went quiet for nearly five years. The most recent update, version 1.62 released on April 23, 2026, is explicitly described as a maintenance patch — backporting the dash invulnerability setting from the mobile version, updating the engine, and improving platform compatibility. Crucially, that same post announces Flying Oak Games' new title, Knuckle Paradise, signaling the studio has moved on to a new project. No new content, DLC, or roadmap for ScourgeBringer has been announced. Both DLC items (the soundtrack and supporter pack) were released on launch day. The game launched as a complete package and has received only maintenance support since June 2021.

Evidence

Version 1.62 released as a maintenance update (engine upgrade, accessibility backport, platform compatibility). The same post announces Flying Oak Games' new game, Knuckle Paradise, indicating the studio's focus has shifted.
