DLC

Downloadable Content — additional content sold separately from the base game, typically including new story campaigns, maps, characters, weapons, or cosmetics. DLC ranges from large paid expansions (Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine) to small cosmetic packs. Season passes bundle multiple DLC releases at a discounted price. DLC has been criticized when it appears to be content cut from the base game or locks important gameplay features behind a paywall.
