South Park: The Stick of Truth DLC "Unlikely"

Though South Park: The Stick of Truth is a critical and commercial success, the release of DLC for the action/RPG is "unlikely," developer Obsidian tells Polygon. Feargus Urquhart explains the sale of the game property to Ubisoft as part of the THQ breakup is the reason post-release support for the game is probably not happening, though he does not completely rule out the possibilities of a DLC release. "As far as we know [Ubisoft and South Park] are done," said the Obsidian CEO, adding: "I don't know what that could be," when saying Obsidian has reached out to Ubisoft to explore possibilities for extending the game. He indicates DLC was part of the roadmap while the game was under development, but the property changing hands combined with the pressure of living up to the expectations of all the parties involved in creating a licensed game created fatigue that has hurt the project's future. "After all of the stress of the game getting done and changing publishers," he said, "I think everyone sort of needed a hug."
