Although the original has concluded, a direct sequel + spin-off have already been officially confirmed.:

The popular franchise already got an anime adaptation back in 2014, while Season 2 premieres on October 3rd this year. It is titled “Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei Raihousha-hen” and will adapt the Visitor Arc of the novels. You can also check out the trailer here.
