Evaluation
World to the West launched on May 5, 2017 as a complete, standalone action-adventure game. It was followed by two DLC items — a soundtrack (May 8, 2017) and a comic book (June 26, 2017) — both of which have shipped. No additional DLC has ever been listed or announced.
The developer has never indicated any plans for additional story content or expansions. The 23 developer news posts on record are almost entirely sales announcements, anniversary posts, and community events, with no roadmaps or content announcements for the game.
The most recent developer update was a February 26, 2025 patch (version 1.6.0) that ported over improvements previously made for the Nintendo Switch version, added controller support, and addressed various performance and bug fixes. The patch notes explicitly describe it as bringing the PC/Mac/Linux version up to parity with the Switch — not introducing new content. This is maintenance work, not a signal of new story or gameplay content in development.
The game shipped as a self-contained narrative experience and has received no indication of further content additions at any point in its lifespan. Both released DLC items are cosmetic/supplementary (soundtrack and comic book). The game is complete.
Evidence
Comic book DLC released, completing the DLC catalogue. Both DLC items are supplementary (soundtrack, comic) rather than story or gameplay expansions.
Update 1.6.0 brings Switch-era improvements to PC/Mac/Linux: controller support, performance improvements, and bug fixes. Developer notes this is the first update in many years. No new content introduced.

About this game
World to the West is an action adventure game developed by Rain Games. It builds upon the universe of indie hit Teslagrad, which has been played by over 1.6 million people so far.
World to the West is a pulpy, cartoony top down action adventure inspired by European adventure comics. Take control of four unique characters —Lumina the Teslamancer, Knaus the orphan, Miss Teri the mind bender and the gloriously mustachioed strongman, Lord Clonington—, each with their their own motivations, skills and interweaving storylines, as they seek to escape the dark shadow of an ancient prophecy. Travel trough corrupt colonies, lush jungles and frozen tundras, as you snoop through the secrets of a forgotten civilization.
Be careful though. Nothing is ever what it seems. Will you join us in this journey to the West?
World to the West is available for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux.
