Starward Rogue

Starward Rogue launched on January 20, 2016 and has received a substantial amount of post-launch content over the years. The game shipped one paid expansion — AuGMENTED — on January 24, 2018, and received multiple major free updates along the way, including the Unlock Overhaul (October 2018) and a large content drop in November 2021 (version 2.6) adding new rooms, weapons, enemies, and music. The most recent developer activity came on January 26, 2024, when Arcen Games pushed version 2.602 (fixing achievements and making quality-of-life improvements) to coincide with the game's launch on PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch via publisher Klabater. That same post noted Arcen is now focused on a new 4X strategy game called Heart of the Machine, in partnership with Hooded Horse — signaling that the studio's development attention has moved on. The sole DLC (AuGMENTED) has been released, and no unreleased DLC or announced future content for Starward Rogue exists. The January 2024 console launch and accompanying PC patch appear to represent the final chapter of the game's active development. With no outstanding commitments, no further content announced, and the developer's own messaging pointing toward a new project, the game is complete.
