4Divinity's most advanced title is Guns of Eschaton, the debut game from Cyprus-based Eschatology Entertainment. Announced in July 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam, it is a soulslike first-person shooter set in a post-apocalyptic Western where players control a gunslinger crossing America after an apocalypse called The Burning. Viktor Antonov, credited on Half-Life 2 and Dishonored, is the visual director. He died in 2025, and the game is described as his final project.

On August 27, 2026, 4Divinity said the game will launch within 2026, and showed a gameplay trailer during the Future Games Show: gamescom 2026 broadcast. Combat features firearms, multiple arms for parrying and dashing, and a customization system where revolver cylinders and individual bullets can be modified. The game supports solo and co-op play, with online multiplayer including co-op and PvP modes. A demo went live on Steam on October 5, 2026. It is an independent adventure made for the demo, not a prologue or cut segment, and it includes enemies that do not normally appear in the corresponding location in the full release. The demo stays playable during Steam Next Fest, from October 19 to October 26, 2026.

4Divinity's wider lineup appeared at gamescom 2026, held in Cologne from August 26 to 30. The company, the publishing arm of GCL Global Holdings, said this was its first participation in the event. Six titles were shown: The Defiant, Showa American Story, Guns of Eschaton, A Whisper of Fall: Jin Yi Wei, Taigu de Shen: Nezha, and Sword Sage: Awakening. The six have collectively amassed over 2 million wishlists and 280 million views of related content. Showa American Story received its first major update since its delay to November 2025. Sword Sage: Awakening, in development for PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, has no release date set; its combat centers on a dodge-and-counter move called Bi Qing Ru Hong, inspired by Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do intercepting fist. Realm of Ink, an ink-wash roguelite from Leap Studio, launched on May 27 across PC and consoles, peaked at about 7,000 concurrent Steam players, holds a 91% positive review rate, and has sold 200,000 copies as the studio's debut title.

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.
