    DLC is actually known as “downloadable content” that means additional content for video games through the internet by the publisher. DLC proves to be a beneficial and good feature of significant video games with good internet connectivity. Some DLC is offered free, but players pay an extra fee to unlock new or different content in some DLC. Some DLCs are purchased automatically from Steam installs, but some require authorized DLC through a third-party app.
