Downloadable Content (short DLC) is a feature where additional content can be downloaded to the game. While some of the content is released free of charge, it's not uncommon for the games industry to charge an additional price for the content, rendering them as premium downloadable content.

This was introduced for the very first time on the Nokia N-Gage version of the original Tomb Raider in the form of a downloadable Assault Course. As a major feature with more public attention, downloadable content appeared alongside Tomb Raider Underworld.
