In November 2020, we shared a demo for an upcoming remaster overhaul mod for Arx Fatalis, called Arx Insanity. Sadly, though, it appears that things are not looking that great for this ambitious mod.
Team leader Pedro Ordaz revealed that the Arx Insanity development team has been disbanded. Most of the team members have left the project. Because of this, official releases are now paused. As such, there is no ETA on when the mod will come out.
At the moment, the modding team consists of only 2-3 active members. So yeah, don’t expect to be playing Arx Insanity anytime soon. Not only that but the 2020 demo is no longer available for download. I don’t know why the team took it down, but the demo is no longer available on ModDB.
Now while the mod has been indefinitely delayed, the team did share some new screenshots from it. These latest screenshots showcase the graphical improvements it has made to this classic RPG. So, if you are a fan of Arx Fatalis, you should definitely check them out.
Pedro_Ordaz claimed that the team will not introduce another delay, or add any new idea to the project. Instead, it will focus on polishing what it currently has in order to release it to the public.
As said, there is no ETA on when the mod will come out. Naturally, though, we’ll be sure to keep you posted.
Enjoy the screenshots!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
