Evaluation
Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae launched on Steam on March 10, 2014, as a port of an indie action game that had previously been released at Comiket 84. The store description presents it as a complete, self-contained game with a clear narrative arc, defined gameplay systems, and multiple difficulty levels — no post-launch content was ever announced or implied.
The developer news associated with this game's Steam page is posted by the publisher PLAYISM and is almost entirely about other titles in their catalog (Giraffe and Annika, Gensokyo Night Festival, Touhou Luna Nights, Steel Sword Story, La-Mulana 2, etc.). The one update directly relevant to Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae was a bug fix and Korean language addition on November 22, 2017, with no mention of future content. There are no DLC listings, no roadmaps, no season passes, and no developer statements about planned additions to this game. The last communication touching this game at all was that November 2017 patch, and nothing since suggests any further development is underway or planned.
This is a complete game that launched as a finished product and received only minor maintenance patches. There is no evidence of any planned or ongoing content development.
Evidence

About this game

The smash hit action game from Comic Market 84 is finally available on Steam!
Misa is a Blade Templar, a secret defender of humanity, who also happens to be a high school student. When her classmate Suzuka succumbs to the dark seduction of the Demon Blade, Misa realizes she must protect the world at all costs. The evil sword has already begun draining Suzuka's life force, and if Misa can’t destroy the Blade alone, she may very well need to strike her friend down.
Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae focuses on high-speed, arena-based action. Use lightning-fast sword slashes, hand-to-hand attacks, and mysterious ancient fighting techniques to defeat wave after wave of demonic foes. Make no mistake; this will not be easy. Your enemies are relentless and will attack from all sides. If you aren't prepared to strike and roll, you'll be overwhelmed in no time flat.
Weaken your opponents with vicious wounds, employ hand-to-hand techniques to build your katana gauge, and then cut deep with your divine sword. A spectacular flurry of blades will take down even the largest crowd of NPCs! After beating them bloody, sheathe your sword to finish them off with style. Be warned, however: if the enemy isn't "bleeding", then they'll take the opportunity to strike you mid-pose!
Use skill points to learn new skills, upgrade your abilities, and take on brutal bosses. With every playthrough of Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae, you will continue to hone your skills as a player until you’re virtually unstoppable! If the game suddenly becomes too easy, there are three difficulty levels with which to test your mettle. Good luck!
