The only DLC ever released is the official soundtrack (March 11, 2020) — no story expansions, content packs, or additional gameplay content were ever announced or shipped.

No roadmaps, expansion announcements, or plans for future content were ever communicated. The game shipped as a finished product and has remained that way since launch.

The little spirit Ori is no stranger to peril, but when a fateful flight puts the owlet Ku in harm’s way, it will take more than bravery to bring a family back together, heal a broken land, and discover Ori’s true destiny. From the creators of the acclaimed action-platformer Ori and the Blind Forest comes the highly anticipated sequel. Embark on an all-new adventure in a vast world filled with new friends and foes that come to life in stunning, hand-painted artwork. Set to a fully orchestrated original score, Ori and the Will of the Wisps continues the Moon Studios tradition of tightly crafted platforming action and deeply emotional storytelling.
