Evaluation

Sopwith VR entered Steam Early Access on December 26, 2018 and received a steady stream of feature updates through early 2019, with the most recent being Update 0.5.1 on April 3, 2019. Since that date — now over seven years ago — there have been no further developer communications of any kind: no patches, no announcements, no roadmap, and no statement about the game's future or completion plans. The game remains listed in Early Access with no public indication of when or whether it will reach a 1.0 release. Given the complete absence of developer activity since April 3, 2019, it is unclear whether development is still ongoing.
Evidence
Update 0.5.1 added animal sounds and a Lewis gun — the last known developer communication of any kind.
