Evaluation
Dakka Squadron – Flyboyz Edition launched on February 18, 2021 and received a handful of post-launch updates. The most notable was the Warhammer 40K Skulls 2021 event update on June 3, 2021, which added two new flyable planes (a looted Arvus Lighter and a looted Doom Scythe) along with skull paint patterns for all aircraft. Before that, an April 2021 patch added a 3-lives system, mission objective improvements, and various quality-of-life fixes. The last developer communication of any kind was on June 3, 2021. Since then — nearly five years as of mid-2026 — the developer has posted nothing. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no announced future content, and no developer statements indicating further updates are planned. The game appears to have shipped as a complete product with a modest post-launch content phase that concluded with the June 2021 Skulls update.
Evidence
