As reported by IGN, Redfall had a “roadmap of support” that was actively being worked on right up until the studio was shuttered.
According to IGN’s sources, a much-requested offline mode was also being worked on and would have been added in Redfall’s May update. But as the team no longer exists, fans can no longer expect this update.
Additionally, content such as a Hero Pass that would have added two new characters to the shooter was scheduled for a Halloween release.
Due to the studio closure, Arkane announced that all Redfall players who purchased the Hero Pass will be eligible to receive in-game credits for equal value.
Arkane assured that Redfall’s servers will remain online after the closures, though for how long remains to be seen.
