Mewgenics DLC is coming but creators will wait months

Mewgenics, the cat-breeding brawler from Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel, is a big game. Senior editor Robin Valentine wrote in his review (92%, by the way) that "after three weeks and over 100 hours of Mewgenics taking over my personal life, it's still surprising me every run." McMillen said it will take most players more than 200 hours to "beat the game," and more than 500 hours to see and do it all.

With that scale in mind, McMillen and Glaiel are planning DLC — but they want to take a few months to "fully understand what people really like about the game" before they start on it. That caution makes sense, but it's worth noting the creators have a history of long lead times.

Shaun Prescott wrote that McMillen—when he was still part of Team Meat—"has a habit of announcing cool stuff and taking aaaages to release it," and Prescott's remark was a reference to Mewgenics, which had been announced three years prior.
