4Divinity's slate runs from a released roguelite to a December shooter. Realm of Ink, the ink-wash roguelite from Leap Studio, launched May 27 across PC and consoles and peaked at about 7,000 concurrent Steam players, with a 91 percent positive review rate and 200,000 copies sold as the studio's debut title.
The publisher's biggest push is Guns of Eschaton. Eschatology Entertainment's Soulslike FPS was announced in July 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam with release date and price undecided, then given a 2026 window at Future Games Show: gamescom 2026 and a firm December 8, 2026 date in October. A Steam demo arrived October 5, built as an independent adventure rather than a prologue, with enemies that do not appear in the same location in the full game. Viktor Antonov is credited as art director and visual director; the stories state he died in 2025 and that the game is his final project.
At gamescom 2026, held August 26 to 30 in Cologne, 4Divinity exhibited six titles: The Defiant, Showa American Story, Guns of Eschaton, A Whisper of Fall: Jin Yi Wei, Taigu de Shen: Nezha, and Sword Sage: Awakening. The publisher called it its first participation in the event and its move into Western markets, with five world-premiere trailers and more than 180 meetings planned; the six titles have over 2 million wishlists and 280 million views of related content. Sword Sage: Awakening, an action RPG from Sword Panda Limited, was played at the show, with its Bi Qing Ru Hong counter at the center of the combat.

Oct 16
Publisher 4Divinity and developer Eschatology Entertainment announced on October 16, 2026 that the Soulslike FPS Guns of Eschaton will launch on December 8, 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game supports Japanese in-game text. It is set in a fictional 19th-century American West where the occult, mythology, and supernatural beings mix. Players take the role of a gunslinger who has lost everything and travels across a country swallowed by an apocalyptic vortex called The Burning. Combat mixes shooting with parries and occult abilities. Limited ammunition, enemy behavior patterns, and attack timing matter. An in-game Codex lists enemy weaknesses. More than 20 weapon types appear, and revolver cylinders and bullets can be customized round by round. Builds combine firearms, talismans, armor, and three Communion Paths. A trailer appeared at the online event Galaxies Showcase. A demo is available on Steam, and the game will take part in Steam Next Fest beginning October 19. The late Viktor Antonov, known for Half-Life 2, was art director.

Eschatology Entertainment and publisher 4Divinity released a demo for Guns of Eschaton on Steam on October 5, 2026. The soulslike first-person shooter is set in a 19th-century America reworked into a post-apocalyptic Western, and it is planned for release within 2026 on PC via Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Players take the role of a gunslinger crossing a dying frontier, working with limited ammunition and reading enemy behavior, weak points, and rituals rather than relying on fast reflexes. The demo is an independent adventure made for the demo rather than a prologue or cut segment of the campaign, and it includes enemies that do not normally appear in the corresponding location in the full release. The late art director Viktor Antonov, credited on Half-Life 2 and Dishonored, was involved with the title, and his name is listed as visual director. The demo stays playable during Steam Next Fest, which runs from October 19 to October 26, 2026.
