Evaluation
Survivor Squad launched on January 21, 2015 as a fully released game. Its only DLC — a "Thank You" pack — shipped on the same day as the base game, indicating it launched as a complete package. The developer's post-launch news activity focused almost entirely on a companion title, Survivor Squad: Gauntlets, which is a separate product. The news feed for this game contains no patch notes, update announcements, or content releases specific to Survivor Squad itself after launch.
More broadly, the developer (Endless Loop Studios / Hugo "Code Monkey") has since moved on to building entirely new games: Battle Royale Tycoon (launched into Early Access in December 2018 and left Early Access in September 2019) and Dinky Guardians (launched October 2023). A post from October 2022 also announced a further new title, Total World Liberation. None of these posts reference any future content for Survivor Squad.
There is no evidence of any post-launch updates, roadmaps, unreleased DLC, or developer statements suggesting future content for Survivor Squad. The game launched complete and has remained so.
Evidence
The only DLC, 'Thank You: The Game,' was released on the same day as the base game, indicating the game launched as a complete package with no planned post-launch paid content.
Developer's most recent communication (October 9, 2023) announces the launch of an entirely new game, Dinky Guardians — with no mention of Survivor Squad.
