DLC definition: For the purposes of PCGamingWiki's taxonomy, 'DLC' specifically refers to small and medium size chunks of additional game content such as maps, levels, quests, cards, characters, new gameplay mechanics etc. that can be paid for. Less substantial than an 'expansion pack'. Does not have to be technically downloaded as many games simply 'unlock' the content once player has made the purchase.

This category could be called 'Extra gameplay', but DLC is a much more familiar term to most gamers.

Examples:

  • Mass Effect 2's 'Lair of the Shadow Broker' is a purchaseable story mission with voice acting and new gameplay mechanics, however it lasts for only around 2 hours.
  • NieR: Automata's '3C3C1D119440927' includes three new battle arenas, three new outfits, as well as a new short side-storyline, however it lasts for only around 1-2 hours.
  • Apex Legends sells individual Legends (characters).
