Evaluation
War, the Game launched on January 12, 2015 and received a burst of updates in its first year. Seven major content updates shipped between launch and September 29, 2016, covering new nations, scenarios, multiplayer features, a built-in scenario editor, Steam Workshop integration, and new music tracks. The final major update — v6.10, which added four new music tracks — was released on September 29, 2016. There have been no developer communications of any kind since that date. The store description makes no mention of planned future content, roadmaps, or ongoing development, and no unreleased DLC is listed. With nearly a decade of silence following the last update, the game appears to have concluded its content development with v6.10 on September 29, 2016.
Evidence
v6.10 released with 4 new music tracks — the most recent developer communication and content update on record.
