Evaluation
The Underground Man launched on September 1, 2016 as a complete, self-contained adventure game. The only DLC ever released — a soundtrack pack — shipped on the same day as the game itself. No post-launch content updates, expansions, or roadmaps have been announced for this title. The developer's sole news post (July 12, 2023) promotes a separate sequel, The Underground Man 2, on Steam — a move that signals the original game's story is fully told and development attention has moved on. There is nothing outstanding or unreleased tied to this game.
Evidence
Developer's only news post directs players to The Underground Man 2 on Steam, a separate sequel title — indicating the original game is complete and the developer has moved on to a new project.
The only DLC — a soundtrack pack — released on launch day alongside the base game. No additional DLC has been listed or announced.

About this game
Moscow: somewhere in the near future. The city and perhaps the Earth's surface has turned into a radioactive ash. Survivors are living a savage lifestyle: they kill each other, they rob each other, they eat and rape each other (sometimes both at the same time). Those who decided that they could not exist in such conditions began to live under the ground. “The underground people” is how they referred to themselves and you are one of them. The times have changed and it is time for you to make your own journey into the big world. The biggest problem is that the people on the surface do not know about your existence. They have heard about “underground people”, but they consider those rumors to be fiction. Your objective is to prove to them that you do indeed exist and that you also possess the ability to adapt to the extreme conditions of the wild radioactive desert. Moreover, you will be responsible for provisioning your fellow brothers and sisters, who are staying underground.
Features of the game include:
-Enjoyable retro-graphics
-A post-apocalyptic theme
-Extremely detailed characters
-A cozy bar as a location
-A unique system of character development; you write it yourself and it is applied to your adventures.
-Mercenary-girls that will help you during your journey
And a lot more.
