Evaluation
The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 launched out of Early Access on February 19, 2015, marking the full release of the complete game. The development history shows that chapters were released incrementally during an Early Access period from mid-2014 onward, with the full 1.0 launch delivering the complete experience. Following launch, the developer issued a patch on March 16, 2015 that added a sidequest and fixed various bugs, and then added French, Spanish, and Italian language support on April 24, 2015. That April 24, 2015 post is the last recorded developer communication. The only DLC listed — the Almanac Edition Extras — was released on the same day as the full game (February 19, 2015) and is already available. No unreleased DLC exists, no future content was announced, no roadmap or expansion plans were communicated, and there has been no developer activity since April 2015. The game shipped as a complete narrative adventure with no post-launch content cycle beyond minor patches and the language update.
Evidence
The game left Early Access and launched as the full 1.0 release on February 19, 2015, with a new Almanac Edition also made available.
The only DLC — Almanac Edition Extras — was released on launch day. No unreleased DLC exists.

About this game
Every world needs its heroes. However unlikely they may seem. Join Wilbur, Ivo, Nate and Critter in another classic point-and-click adventure in the wicked world of Aventásia. Help them fulfill their destiny. A destiny as yet unwritten.
A few years have passed since our heroes heroically defeated the arch-witch Mortroga. And their lives, like the lives of most people in Aventásia, are still in turmoil. The War of the Two Towers is over, but the wounds it left upon the land are still bleeding.
The gnome Wilbur Weathervane is struggling with his new job as a teacher at the reopened School for Wizardry and Witchcraft. His magic wand is having a mind of its own and an assassination plot against the arch-mage overshadows the first democratic elections in Seastone.
Faced with political intrigues that threaten the delicate balance of peace, Wilbur is in dire need of his old friends. But the elf princess Ivo and the adventurer Nate have, after a brief romantic interlude, gone their separate ways.
Ivo has returned to her gilded cage in the elf kingdom, overprotected by her controlling mother.
Nate along with his trusty companion Critter has been taken prisoner on the flying island of his arch-enemy the Red Pirate.
But fate does not rest. A darkness has fallen upon the land, or rather, a pinkness. A magic force is turning mighty beasts into fluffy plush puppies and towering castles into oversized dollhouses. Can Aventásia be saved?
