Evaluation

Summer's Gone – Season 1 launched on Steam on May 10, 2024 as a complete interactive visual novel, with the "Season 1" branding signaling from the outset that further seasons were planned. On September 25, 2026 — just six days before today — the developer posted a substantial development status update directly to the Season 1 Steam news page. In it, OceanAVN confirmed that Season 2 was released on SubscribeStar at the end of March 2026, and that the version coming to Steam is currently about 60% complete. The post also previewed content from both Chapters 1–3 ("Reverie") and Chapter 4 ("Taedium Vitae"), and announced that bi-weekly development logs will begin appearing on the Season 2 Steam page starting October 4, 2026. The developer has maintained a consistent pattern of communication throughout the game's life: bi-weekly dev logs on SubscribeStar, periodic Steam posts, and previews shared across platforms. Earlier milestones include an August 2024 Season 2 preview post, a detailed March 2025 development log describing Season 2 – Chapter 1 as nearly 60% the size of all of Season 1, a January 2026 cinematic teaser for Season 2, and an August 2025 patch that added Spanish and Russian language support to Season 1. Season 2 has its own dedicated Steam store page (Summer's Gone – Season 2: Constellations). The story is continuing and the developer is actively working to bring that content to Steam. The evidence as of September 25, 2026 is unambiguous: more content is coming.
