Evaluation
Old School Musical launched on September 13, 2018, and received two free DLC packs after launch: the Toricity Songs Pack on November 7, 2019 (featuring chiptune artist TORIENA), and the MV Expo Songs Pack on June 25, 2020 (featuring French streamer and composer mistermv). Both the June 9, 2020 announcement and the June 25, 2020 release post explicitly stated that the MV Expo pack would be "the last DLC for Old School Musical," with the developer thanking players for their support and confirming no further content was planned. All four DLC items listed on the store are released, and no unreleased DLC or future content announcements exist. The developer has been silent since June 25, 2020, consistent with a completed project. The game is fully complete as of that final DLC release date.
