Wildgate, the sci-fi PvPvE shooter, launched on Steam in July 2025, and less than a year after its launch, Dreamhaven and Moonshot Games have revealed that Wildgate will be getting its last content update in July. After that update, patch 1.5.4, which will deliver a host of new content, the game will enter maintenance mode. This means that the game will still receive updates, including "bug fixes, balance updates, and small events, activations or rewards that generally repurpose existing content," but the studio says it "has not found a large enough audience to sustain ongoing development. Wildgate will still remain playable and purchasable on all platforms where it is available, and the developer says that "we plan on participating in as many sales and discounts as we can."

Patch 1.5.4 introduces a revamped game mode selection screen that's more informative, new player-controlled options for custom games, a one-year anniversary celebration, and bug and balance fixes. Looking forward, Wildgate's development team at Moonshot Games will focus on new projects which will be announced in the future, the player support team and community management efforts will be reduced but not completely shut down, and the official Wildgate Discord server will be handed over to the community. At its height, around the game's launch, Wildgate peaked at 7,799 concurrent players on Steam, with player counts dropping to around 25-150 peak concurrent daily players around the beginning of 2026. It's currently unclear how long Wildgate will remain playable, since its multiplayer features are dependent on online services that cost money to run.
