- Ascent Free-Roaming VR Experience – $999. Ascent is one of the few VR games on steam that was built to be played on a motion floor, with players in bodysuits with climate control and haptic feedback.
- Heroes and Generals: Giga Packs – $199.99. The free-to-play large-scale FPS Heroes and Generals offers a number of DLC packages in various sizes: the Giga packs contain the most DLC content, but they also go for a steep price.
- W.H.A.L.E. – $ 199.99. W.H.A.L.E. (Water and Hydrogeological Analysis Laboratories) is an indie scientific VR game that was created in collaboration with the European Union itself.
- Jam Studio VR: Education & Health Care Edition – $199.99. Jam Studio VR is a game that lets players interact with and play a variety of different musical instruments and create songs in the VR space.
- The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion – Shivering Isles. In the early days of video game DLC (or at least the digital age of the concept), Bethesda made the truly terrible decision to release the now-infamous “Horse Armor” add-on for Oblivion.
- Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare. Given Red Dead Revolver’s mixed reception, few expected Redemption to be anything greater than an old-west GTA spin-off.
- The Last of Us: Left Behind. I went into Left Behind with some trepidation. Unnecessary DLC in video games was nothing new, but in the case of Left Behind, there was a very real chance that the events of the DLC could compromise or negatively alter a game that was widely acclaimed for its storytelling.
- Grand Theft Auto 4: The Ballad of Gay Tony. I love Grand Theft Auto 4, but like some other fans at the time of its release, I just couldn’t shake the feeling that the game somehow felt smaller than San Andreas.

- Train Simulator. Just Train Simulator Classic by itself has over 600 DLC packs but adding third-party content pushes it past 800. Unlike Rocksmith, all of these DLCs are much more substantial than songs.
- Rocksmith. Rock Band was a stylish success as a rhythm game and as a vehicle to get players to make additional purchases. Not only did players need peripherals to play the game, but there were also tons of songs only available as DLC.
- Monster Hunter. Monster Hunter is a game that loves its expansions and season passes in order to drip-feed content over a game’s lifespan. This is a great model, and fans love it, but it doesn’t mean it has no traditional DLC.
- Dead or Alive. Fighting games make a lot of money on DLC, sometimes to the genre’s detriment. Sometimes cool characters and features can be locked behind a paywall.
