Evaluation
Redirection launched on October 24, 2016 as a complete 45-level 3D puzzle game. The developer shipped two post-launch patches in late 2016: version 1.0.7 on October 27, 2016 (bug fixes and modding improvements) and version 1.1.0 on December 22, 2016 (a new Robot Arcade game, modding features, and further bug fixes). No major expansions or additional content have been released since then. On March 8, 2021, the developer published the game's source code on GitHub, explicitly framing it as a decision made "after four years" — a move traditionally associated with wrapping up a completed project. The store description describes a self-contained experience with 45 levels and a complete story, with no mention of ongoing or planned content. There are no unreleased DLC listings and no developer statements promising future updates.
Evidence
Developer open-sourced the game after four years, citing id Software's practice of open-sourcing titles after development concludes. No future content mentioned.
Version 1.1.0 shipped with a new Robot Arcade game and modding features. Last substantive content update to the game.

About this game
“Captain's Log: All of our Robots are missing! An unknown force has scattered them across the sector! Without them, we are adrift. Their only hope of rescue lies with S.A.M, our ship's computer. But I have so many questions: Who is responsible for this? What do they want with our Robots? And will S.A.M’s advanced puzzle-solving intelligence be enough to save us?”
