stay tuned

More is coming

Stay tuned is a request to keep paying attention for what comes next.

The phrase originated in broadcasting—listeners were asked to stay tuned to a radio or television station rather than changing the dial.

Now it functions as a general announcement that more information or developments will follow: Stay tuned for updates on the situation.

It often carries a note of anticipation or teasing: I can't reveal everything yet, but stay tuned.
