Evaluation
Once Ever After launched into Early Access on April 15, 2022, and graduated to its full 1.0 release on October 14, 2022. The developer explicitly declared the game complete at that point, stating in the 1.0 launch post: "Since version 0.7.0 hasn't shown any major issues, and that was the last planned content update, that means the game is now complete!" This was reinforced by the preceding 0.7.0 update post on October 7, 2022, which also stated: "This concludes my plans for adding content!" There are no unreleased DLC listings, no announced future content, and no developer communications since October 2022 that suggest any change to this position. The game launched as a complete, self-contained RPG and has remained so.
Evidence
Developer explicitly declared the game complete at 1.0 launch: 'that was the last planned content update, that means the game is now complete!'
The 0.7.0 content update post states: 'This concludes my plans for adding content!' — confirming no further content was planned after this patch.

About this game
Everyone knows how the story goes: innocent, 18-year-old Red Riding Hood goes into the woods and is corrupted by the naughty, naughty Big Bad Wolf. Ingrid is the newest Little Red Riding Hood: she doesn't know what awaits her in the dark woods, but she knows that it seems exciting.
But Ingrid's world is only one of an infinite number of Tales, and those stories are starting to bleed over into one another. War is coming, and Ingrid doesn't even know what war is. Nothing will ever be the same, and the only weapon Ingrid has to face the changes is sexy fun.
