Flowers Blooming at the End of Summer

Flowers Blooming at the End of Summer is a Korean visual novel that launched on February 26, 2021, and has received consistent anniversary updates each year: a 2nd Anniversary update (v2.0) on February 26, 2023, a 3rd Anniversary update (v2.9) on February 24, 2024, a 4th Anniversary update (v3.0) on February 26, 2025 (which also added official Simplified Chinese language support), and a 5th Anniversary update (v3.7) on February 26, 2026. The game has been actively maintained with feature patches and bug fixes throughout its life. The store DLC listing shows four items: three — a Soundtrack, Digital Wallpaper, and Design Works — all released on launch day, and a fourth titled "When the Lying Petals Scatter Into the Wind" that remains unreleased with no announced release date. This is concrete evidence that additional content has been planned and announced through the store listing but not yet delivered. In the most recent developer communication on February 26, 2026 (the 5th anniversary post), developer Luet2P shared a warm retrospective and distributed a new anniversary wallpaper, but also noted that MidnightWorks is currently in "a period of recharge" and promised to return in a more grown form someday — without giving any timeline. No mention was made of the unreleased DLC. This creates meaningful uncertainty: there is an announced but undelivered content item, the developer has acknowledged stepping back, and there is no communicated plan or schedule for the pending DLC.
