Evaluation

Warhammer 40,000: Regicide has been officially shut down and removed from sale. On October 19, 2022, Hammerfall Publishing posted a farewell announcement confirming that after seven years of operation (2015–2022), they were immediately closing the game's online servers and removing it from Steam, Google Play, and the Apple App Store. The developer noted that offline mode would still function for players who already had the game installed, and stated that Hammerfall would be moving on to new projects. The game is no longer purchasable on Steam, which confirms the delisting is in effect. No further content or updates are planned — the studio explicitly concluded the game's lifecycle.
