AGAINST

AGAINST launched in Early Access on Steam on December 16, 2021, with a complete 7-level story campaign. The developer described it at the time as "already a fully-fledged and polished experience." During the Early Access period, Joy Way shipped one meaningful content and polish update (the HEARTBEAT update in May 2022) along with several hotfixes addressing timing, localization, and hardware compatibility. The game formally left Early Access and reached its 1.0 release on February 25, 2025. The store description describes a complete product: a full storyline across 7 levels in 3 difficulties, a defined cast of enemies and bosses, and a finished narrative about Detective vs. Dr. Vice. There is no mention of planned expansions, future DLC, or ongoing content development on the store page. Looking at the full news history — 16 posts scanned — the last developer communication of any kind was in June 2022, over three years before the 1.0 release date and well before it. There are no post-1.0 announcements, roadmaps, or stated plans for additional content. The early launch post mentioned possibilities like "campaign expansions" and "music packs," but those were exploratory ideas listed during Early Access, not commitments, and no subsequent posts ever formalized them into announced content. With the game now fully released, all DLC shipped (the only listed item is the free Beatmap Editor tool), no unreleased content on the store, and no developer communications signaling ongoing development plans, AGAINST appears to have shipped as a complete product at 1.0.
