Evaluation
Desolate Wastes: Vendor Chronicles launched out of Early Access on July 21, 2017. In the Full Release announcement, the developer stated they had "achieved what we set out to do with Vendor Chronicles" and that everything was "relatively stable." The June 2017 pre-launch post also made clear the team felt the game had "all the features we'd like to include." No DLC has been listed, no roadmap or future content was announced post-launch, and there have been no developer communications of any kind since the July 21, 2017 release post. The game shipped as a complete, finished product with no post-launch content cycle. No further content has ever been announced or implied.
