The KPR Team posted this in
Steam:
Hey everyone!
I want to give you all an update on KP Reloaded, and why it's taking so long.
Early this year we revealed the game, with the goal of releasing the game this summer.
However, some major changes have happened during development, which is why we've decided to delay the game.
We decided earlier this year to change our approach to the Remaster. As you all know, the original source code for Kingpin no longer exists, so our original plan was to "Recreate" the game in a modern engine (The same approach Nightdive uses for their KexEngine games).
However, during this, we quickly realized that in order to get the game to Feel 100% like the original (Including the fantastic path-finding for AI, etc.), a better approach would be to reverse engineer the original game and engine completely, essentially re-creating the missing sources from scratch.
We've been hard at work on this for the majority of 2020, and are finally at a stage where we're almost done.
Alongside the programming side of things, we're also close to being done with re-creating every texture in the game from scratch, in high-resolution. No AI Upscaling here!
In January we're entering the next stage of development - Putting it all together, which is at the point where we'll finally be able to share more videos, gameplay, screenshots, and open up the closed-beta.
Stay tuned everyone! Kingpin is coming!
Sincerely,
The Kingpin: Reloaded Team!

One of the many features of the MH Kingpin patch is that it populates the Gangbang Menu with all the current Kingpin Servers.
Just open the Gangbang menu and then Join Network Server and you will see a list of all the Kingpin servers. You can then join a game from that menu.
Download the MH Kingpin patch from
here.
Thanks to
Elfor for the following screenshot.
If you have played the new single player episode
Barren Meadow you may have seen the Badmonk NPC character.
This is a tribute to the Kingpin mapper
Badmonk. Badmonk made both deathmatch and single player maps in the early days of Kingpin. Later he changed his name to Sandman and then ALMost.
If you want to check out his work then download his mappack from
here.
Just extract/unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
The mappack contains all his DM and Bagman maps and most of his single player maps. It doesn't include Monkville, his most popular single player map, but you can download that one from
here.
The Sunday game this week will be Bagman on Monkey Harris's Newskool Bagman server.
