The store description presents a self-contained story with a clear beginning, middle, and end — there is no mention of post-launch content, seasons, expansions, or ongoing updates. The only DLC ever released was a soundtrack pack on November 15, 2016, which is supplementary content rather than story or gameplay expansion. The developer has made no news posts relevant to the game's development, and there is no indication that any additional content was ever planned or delivered beyond the base game. This is a complete, finished product that shipped as a standalone experience.
