Redfall will receive one final update after all. Earlier it was announced that Microsoft would be closing Arkane Austin and that all active development on Redfall would stop immediately. This meant that the big update the studio was working on and was days away from releasing was being canned. It seemed that even after the announcement was made online, the news didn’t sink in at Arkane Austin as SteamDB still showed developers working on updating the game. After community feedback, the studio is happy to announce that they are still working on the release of their final update.

My Perspective
I’m glad the developers get to release their final patch to Redfall. They worked hard on it and for it to be cancelled days before release is just horrible. I’m looking forward to seeing how they revamp the Neighborhood and Nest systems. But I’m glad they are able to make the game playable offline because you don’t want to have your game end up unplayable because someone pulled the plug on the server.
