It looks like the rest of the chapters were included in the game at no extra cost, now. When this game first came out, it was just chapter one. The rest of the chapters were still being produced, and individually released as DLC. I'm just now getting around to playing this and it all looks like it's done. Great story, simplistic but amazing visuals, accessible gameplay
