Evaluation
Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken launched on October 15, 2012 as a complete package, including a full solo campaign (15 chapters), a full co-op campaign (10 chapters), mini-stories, and an exclusive music soundtrack. The store description presents this as a finished, self-contained game with no mention of planned expansions or additional content.
The developer's post-launch activity has been limited to quality-of-life improvements rather than new content. In January 2017, Ratloop Asia added Steam Trading Cards, Steam Cloud Save support, and fixed a couple of bugs — all in preparation for the launch of the sequel, Rocketbirds 2 Evolution. That sequel launched on January 26, 2017, and represents the franchise's continued development rather than new content for this original title.
The last developer communication for this game was on January 26, 2017. There have been no announcements of new content, no unreleased DLC, and no roadmap of any kind. The game launched complete and has remained so.
Evidence
Store description lists complete solo and co-op campaigns, mini-stories, and exclusive music as the full game contents — no mention of additional content or future updates.
Developer announced Rocketbirds 2 Evolution as a separate sequel on Steam, indicating future franchise development would continue in a new title rather than updates to this game.
