I have heard that the developers were somehow forced to separate in January 2023, and couldn't work on the game anymore. No idea what exactly happened, but I hope they are okay.

Rip tbh this game has good story and design it didn't last till dev quit ☠️

The development got shut down. Sadly, the developers were forced to separate. I too was looking forward to the 049 DLC. I wouldve bought it, but it is what it is.

I've been lurking around since i saw the announcement for the DLC-- i was wondering what had happened. Nice to get an official answer, not matter how disappointing this is :(
Easily the best SCP game i've played so far, such a shame

As I recall correctly, the Chinese government (CCP) declared the SCP Foundation as a "children's cult" in about 2021, and carried out a series of blocking and deletion of a large number of videos about the SCP Foundation on many Chinese websites.
It has carried out a series of blocking and deletion of a large number of videos about SCP Foundation in many Chinese websites.
(There was even a rumor that the police approached the SCP Foundation's CN webmaster).
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the problems faced by the development team.
