    It’s a shame that it’s been delayed on PC for a year.

      If this is a cheeky shot taken at Epic, I think it’s Epic exclusive “forever” (however long EGS lasts), since Epic is publishing it.

      To me, updates and DLC serve different purposes. Updates are for bugfixes, new features, feature enhancements, etc. DLC is new game stuff, like additional characters and levels and so on.

        I agree with your interpretation, but I really wish publishers would go back to calling additional levels or story content an “expansion” instead of DLC. It’s a lot more clear and differentiates from other types of content like a character costume or a soundtrack.

      I get it if it can reduce game file sizes, like for post-game content/standalone content
