Evaluation

SoulQuest launched on May 1, 2026 after approximately seven years of solo development. The developer has been actively engaged since launch, shipping multiple updates within the first few weeks: a post-launch bug fix patch on May 3, an environmental hazards toggle on May 4, new color palettes and more bug fixes on May 7, and the addition of Boss Rush Mode on May 17. Notably, the May 7 update (Update 1.1.0) explicitly previewed upcoming features still in the pipeline, including a Global Leaderboard for the Trials of Chaos mode. Additionally, the May 7 post mentioned that more color palettes would be added in future updates. These are concrete developer statements about content that has not yet shipped, indicating the developer considers the game to be in active post-launch support with more to come. The game launched as a complete story-driven experience with no announced DLC or season pass, but the developer is clearly treating post-launch as an ongoing development phase — regularly responding to feedback, adding new modes, and publicly teasing upcoming features. The most recent developer communication was on May 17, 2026, which is well within any reasonable activity window given the May 1 launch date.
Evidence
Update 1.1.3 added Boss Rush Mode — a feature that had been teased in the prior update — and the developer stated 'We're not slowing down,' signaling continued active post-launch development.

About this game

When her husband was taken by the gods, Alys refused to accept their verdict. With sword in hand, she embarked on a quest to take his soul back, throwing down the gauntlet to the goddess of death, Morrigan. Neither the legions of godly servants nor the gods themselves will stop her wrath.

Welcome to Soul Quest, a hack-and-slash tale of one woman's undying love and boundless grief. Carve through endless hordes of enemies and rip out their very souls. Battle the fates using a deep freeform combat system. Fight the Celtic gods - will you win and complete Alys’ quest?

Epic story of love conquering death, set in a fantasy world drawing on the rich legacy of Celtic myths and Arthurian legends.

Deep combat system combining a broad variety of attacks, magic abilities, and ultimates, designed to be easy to understand and with plenty of ways to master it as you challenge Morrigan, the goddess of death!

Non-stop action against hordes of foes, from fodder to cleave apart, to elite foes requiring quick thinking to defeat, and challenging bosses with plenty of aces up their sleeves.

Plenty of secrets to discover across the vast levels, using Alys' ability to use vertical surfaces for sliding and jumping off. Then turn these skills on the enemy to outmaneuver and outfox them!

Challenges await veteran players, putting your skills to the test with the highest difficulty levels leaving no room for error!
