Seems like it with the season over now and I'm sure their internal work on OOTP25 has already begun. I would assume that unless there is a major change in a macOS or Windows update that needs an emergency bug fix or something breaks, we won't see another update.
it's the same way these sports games work on consoles, like Madden, you only see updates after the season if something is broken and once the new game is released, the old game has no more updates period.
It's why I like the way AEW Fight Forever is changing the landscape of sports games, instead of releasing a new game, they're gonna release a DLC update called Season 2 which updates the game with new characters and arenas. So you don't have to buy a new game. Hopefully it catches on to other sports games. With DLC and downloads, there is no need for yearly new games, just charge for a DLC update.
