Evaluation
Dinocide launched on January 21, 2016 and received a burst of content updates in its first year: new bosses, new levels, new biomes, a Boss Rush mode, and additional language support across several patches (v1.1 through v1.4). The last of these content-bearing updates shipped in December 2016. Since then, AtomicTorch Studio has moved on to other projects — first CryoFall (announced in August 2019), and more recently Cyberscape, which entered Early Access on March 23, 2026. There are no unreleased DLC entries, no announced future content for Dinocide, and no developer communication suggesting further updates are planned. The game shipped as a self-contained single-player platformer and received its final update on December 21, 2016. It is a complete, finished product.
Evidence
Final update v1.4.6 released, addressing a handful of bugs and performance issues. No future content mentioned.
Update v1.4 added a new game mode (Boss Rush), a new level, and Chinese language support — the last major content addition to the game.
