Evaluation

Guacamelee! Gold Edition launched on August 8, 2013 as a complete package, bundling the base game with the "El Infierno" level expansion. The store description confirms this content is included in the Gold Edition itself, not as a separate post-launch add-on. The only DLC listed on the store is the game's soundtrack, which has already been released. There has been no post-launch content added to this specific game, and the developer's communications — including a Summer 2025 studio update — focus entirely on their new title, Blighted, with no mention of any plans for Guacamelee! Gold Edition. The studio is healthy and active, simply working on a new game. Guacamelee! Gold Edition is a finished product that shipped complete on release day.
Evidence
Store description confirms the Gold Edition includes the El Infierno level expansion as part of the base package, and also notes that Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is available free to Gold Edition owners — establishing this as a complete, bundled product.

About this game

Guacamelee! Gold Edition is a Metroidvania-style action-platformer set in a magical Mexican-inspired world. The game draws its inspiration from traditional Mexican culture and folklore, and features many interesting and unique characters.

Guacamelee! builds on the classic open-world Metroidvania style of games by adding deep melee combat, a new dimension switching mechanic, and cooperative local multiplayer. The game also blurs the boundaries between combat and platforming by making many moves useful and necessary for both.

Travel through a mystical and mysterious Mexican world as a luchador using the power of your two fists to battle evil. Uncover hidden wrestling techniques like the Rooster Uppercut, and Dimension Swap to open new areas and secrets.
