During a recent interview, the author of the Jujutsu Kaisen Manga, Gege Akutami, answered numerous questions related to the series. One such question was about the final arc of the manga.
In a comment talking about Culling Games and the rest of the series, Gege Akutami mentioned that we are in the final arc/saga , i.e., the Shinjuku arc.
Here is the full statement: “I thought of it as a crutch for taking us towards the Inhumane Makyo Shinjuku arc (final section/saga). I had already decided on the things that had to happen (like characters and Colony stuff) but I kept each Colony segment contained to be its own individual volume, and thought about how to make them as exciting as possible as I progressed. I remember having a discussion with my Editor about how it’d be nice if each Volume should be like its own sort of album”.

Crunchyroll describes the overall plot of Jujutsu Kaisen as:
Yuji Itadori is a boy with tremendous physical strength, though he lives a completely ordinary high school life.
One day, to save a classmate who has been attacked by curses, he eats the finger of Ryomen Sukuna, taking the curse into his own soul.
From then on, he shares one body with Ryomen Sukuna.
Guided by the most powerful of sorcerers, Satoru Gojo, Itadori is admitted to Tokyo Jujutsu High School, an organization that fights the curses… and thus begins the heroic tale of a boy who became a curse to exorcise a curse, a life from which he could never turn back.
