Evaluation
Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Prophecy is a stand-alone expansion for Inquisitor - Martyr that shares the same game client and has received a continuous stream of content updates alongside the base game since its July 2019 release.
NeocoreGames has maintained a steady pattern of major content releases: the Season of Escalation launched on December 14, 2022, followed by the Season of Malediction on June 27, 2023, and most recently the Hierophant Class DLC on November 12, 2024. This DLC adds a brand-new playable class with unique mechanics, three subclasses, new gear types, and new passive skills — a substantial addition to the game.
In January 2024, the developer announced the Hierophant Class was in development and confirmed it would arrive later that year, which it did. In October 2023, NeocoreGames explicitly stated the game would not be delisted and confirmed plans to add an offline mode (which shipped in May 2024), reassuring players of the game's ongoing support. The most recent developer communication was a bug-fix patch on November 29, 2024, addressing issues introduced with the Hierophant launch.
No specific future content has been announced as of today (June 26, 2026), but the developer has also made no statement that content development is complete. Given the well-established pattern of major class DLC releases (Sororitas in November 2022, Hierophant in November 2024) and the developer's track record of active ongoing support, the game fits a pattern of continued development without confirmed future deliverables at this time.
Evidence

About this game
IMPORTANT: You don’t have to own Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr to play this game.
IMPORTANT: for Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr players: Existing characters, their items and their progress are carried over to the expansion, adjusted to the new 2.0 rules and mechanics.

Now you can also carry out the Emperor’s will as a Tech-Adept Inquisitor, a former acolyte of the Adeptus Mechanicus who decided to join the Holy Ordos to become one of the mightiest agents of the Imperium; combining the sacred technological mysteries with the relentless dogma of the Inquisition, he has become an unstoppable force. Or continue the unfolding saga of the Alpha Pariah with one of the original three classes introduced in Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr in a Caligari Sector slowly succumbing to madness and war.

And if that wasn’t enough to alarm the Holy Inquisition, a mysterious presence with potentially devastating powers has returned from the Warp on the long-lost “Martyr”, destined to fulfil a prophecy that could change the fate of the entire Sector.A STAND-ALONE EXPANSION
