The developer behind DayZ has announced that the studio is closing as “a mutual decision between management and studio leads”. While Bohemia Interactive has shuttered its doors, developers have indicated that updates to the game will continue and that it “won’t affect the future development of the game”.
We recently closed our Bratislava studio. It was a mutual decision between management and studio leads, and we want to thank all team members for their contribution.
This decision won’t affect the future dev. of DayZ, which will continue as outlined here: https://t.co/iXt1gntkTa pic.twitter.com/Ca6nKH4KcW

DayZ development isn’t closed.
TLDR: updates all year, with longer gaps between them.
Everything is going by the plan published in January:https://t.co/uJNd0sGbp6— DayZ ? ? ❤️ (@DayZ) April 26, 2020
What can players expect in the future? If developers are to be believed, regular updates will still happen albeit at a slower rate. According to a post on the game’s site earlier this year, there are a number of things that are in the works.
“This year, the development will focus on stability, bug fixing, and gameplay improvements, along with some new small-scale content. Please keep in mind that our policy on announcing exact release dates – or when a feature is coming – will not change. We will only make said announcements when we are certain we can deliver within a reasonable time frame – which usually means a feature is already well into its production.”
