Downloadable Content (DLC Content)

Downloadable Content, abbreviated as DLC, is additional content available to download after the initial release of a game. The content received as DLC can vary from additional Playable Characters, new costumes, new music and/or quality of life updates, such as patches or bug fixes.

The only game series to use that feature are The King of Fighters series and Samurai Shodown series, beside the game SNK Heroines Tag Team Frenzy. Beside that, some SNK characters appear as DLC guest characters in games of other companies.
