Dogubomb and Raw Fury released Patch 1.04.5 for puzzle game Blue Prince today. And while Blue Prince has been one of the indie darlings of 2025, Director Tonda Ros admitted in a patch-notes post on Steam that there aren't any plans for DLC or new content for Blue Prince following the next update.
Blue Prince is a roguelike puzzle game in which players explore a mansion left behind by their great-uncle. While they search for a hidden 46th room, the mansion shifts every night, and players have to lay out new floor plans as they explore each new day. Critics loved its structure and mind-bending puzzles, leading to Blue Prince becoming one of 2025's best-reviewed games.

One of Patch 1.04.5's most notable improvements is fixing a save-rollback issue on PS5 that was causing some players' games to not save properly, resulting in lost progress. Other progress-blocking bugs or softlocks were also resolved in this patch, and the wording of some late-game puzzles has been updated for clarity. You can check out the full list of patch notes below, although you should be aware that it contains spoilers for Blue Prince.
Some of what's to come beyond this current patch was teased, although Ros wants to temper expectations. It was confirmed that Patch 1.10 will be the final content update Blue Prince receives. By then, the game will have received additions like a color-assist mode, controller remapping, widescreen support, new cinematics, UI and UX improvements, cryptic additions like "an overhyped arcade game and "a curious house cat," and more. After that, any future updates for Blue Prince will simply be for bug-fixing purposes.
"It had always been my dream to release a definitive version of the game at launch. I’m a big fan of complete standalone experiences and it was never my plan to continually tinker with the game with regular content updates, room rebalancing, or DLC and the like," Ros explained. "Considering this is my first game, I’m extremely proud of everything I managed to include for launch, but there are a few minor things that were not quite completed before our release date that I feel must be added to fulfill that original vision. Those inclusions will be added in 1.10, which will be the final major update to the game. It will be the definitive version of the game."
Once Patch 1.10 for Blue Prince rolls out in the coming months, it will be content complete, so you shouldn't worry about waiting for DLC or more significant content updates to jump in. Blue Prince is available for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S and is part of the Game Pass Ultimate and PS Plus Extra game catalogs.
