Returnal’s senior narrative designer Eevi Korhonen has told VGC that the team left so many ideas and narrative systems out of Returnal, that they plan to incorporate them into its next game.
Developer Housemarque has shared a specific image that many believe is making fun of the DLC for Returnal. Instead, fans shouted in hopes that the Housemarques post was a mockery of the Returns DLC or an add-on. It is also possible that the image could only be referred to as apparently present on planet Atropos Return, unrelated to future content, although Hausmark appears to be intent on reaping repercussions from players.
