'''Downloadable content''', usually abbreviated as '''DLC''', is additional content available to download after the initial release of a game. In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, DLC comes in the form of new characters, stages, music, Mii Fighter costumes, modes, and other extra content, both in purchasable and free forms.  
{{split|If we're going to go into this much detail on pricing and release history, we should have separate articles for each game as well as a general concept page for size purposes}}
'''Downloadable content''', usually abbreviated as '''DLC''', is additional content available to download after the initial release of a game. DLC was first confirmed for ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' in the "[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U: 50-Fact Extravaganza]]" video presentation on October 23rd, 2014. Downloadable content for the game includes playable [[fighter]]s, [[stage]]s, and even additional features. Paid content in {{forwiiu}} is found for purchase in the {{s|wikipedia|Nintendo eShop}}, and in {{for3ds}} is found within a game-based DLC shop.


In the ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' [[Nintendo Direct]] on November 1st, 2018, series director [[Masahiro Sakurai]] confirmed that paid DLC would be available for ''Ultimate''. It will come in 5 bundles each containing one fighter, one stage, and several [[music]] tracks. These bundles, which will also be available through the [[Fighter Pass]], will be released periodically between the game's December 2018 release and February 2020. Additionally, {{SSBU|Piranha Plant}} is available for free as a limited time early purchase bonus, and will be subsequently available for purchase. On November 6th, Sakurai announced on his Twitter account that the DLC line-up was now complete, and it was decided by Nintendo. [https://twitter.com/Sora_Sakurai/status/1059958604818657282?s=19]. However, it's implied that Sakurai will still have the final choice on whom gets added.
Downloadable content has been made available in two of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games:
 
*''[[Downloadable content (SSB4)|Super Smash Bros. 4]]''
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
*''[[Downloadable content (SSBU)|Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''

{{main|List of updates (SSB4-3DS)}}
{{Disambiguation}}
{{main|List of updates (SSB4-Wii U)}}
Updates to the game are downloadable at no extra cost. The game must be updated to the latest version to purchase DLC, which is done automatically after starting the game from [[Nintendo 3DS|the]] [[Wii U|system]]'s main menu. Most updates also adjust game balance and mechanics, while fixing [[glitch]]es and other errors as well. Change-logs for all updates are available at the links above. [[Nintendo]] has not released any detailed information as official announcements.
 
As with any other game, DLC data gets added via free updates. Completing a transaction to receive DLC is merely a "ticket" to grant access to said content. What this means is that DLC not purchased in an updated version is still technically installed but locked, and thus is accessible indirectly. Content that is locked can be seen and played against with opponents connecting via a system that has DLC paid for (in "[[With Anyone]]," "[[With Friends]]," and local Nintendo 3DS [[Versus]] modes). Without another person with DLC, locked content can still be seen via using [[amiibo]] as [[Figure Player]]s, and saving uploaded or shared [[replays]].
 
===Characters===

:{{symbol|mother|16px}} {{head|Lucas|g=SSB4|s=24px}} {{SSB4|Lucas}} {{gameIcon|SSB4}} (June 14th, 2015)
::''[[Brawl]]'' veteran [[Lucas]] was first confirmed to reappear in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' as a downloadable character alongside the reveal of Mewtwo's release date, during a [[Nintendo_Direct#Standard_Nintendo_Directs|Nintendo Direct held on April 1st, 2015]]. He was released on June 14th, 2015. The Smash Ballot, which gave people an opportunity to vote for a new character, was also announced.
 
:{{symbol|fe|16px}} {{head|Roy|g=SSB4|s=24px}} {{SSB4|Roy}} {{gameIcon|SSB4}} (June 14th, 2015)
::''Melee'' veteran [[Roy]] was {{h1|leak|Roy and Ryu data}}ed as DLC in data-mining of the 1.0.6 and 1.0.8 updates. He was officially revealed by [[Masahiro Sakurai]] during a [[Nintendo_Direct#Super_Smash_Bros._-_New_Content_Approaching_6.14.15|Nintendo Direct on June 14th, 2015]], and released shortly after on the same day.
 
:{{symbol|streetfighter|16px}} {{head|Ryu|g=SSB4|s=24px}} {{SSB4|Ryu}} {{gameIcon|SSB4}} (June 14th, 2015)
::[[Newcomer]] [[Ryu]] from [[Capcom]]'s {{uv|Street Fighter}} series was leaked alongside Roy. Similarly, he was officially revealed by Masahiro Sakurai during a Nintendo Direct on June 14th, 2015 and released shortly after on the same day. Ryu comes as a set with the stage [[Suzaku Castle]].
 
:{{symbol|finalfantasy|16px}} {{head|Cloud|g=SSB4|s=24px}} {{SSB4|Cloud}} {{gameIcon|SSB4}} (December 15th, 2015)
::Newcomer [[Cloud Strife]] from [[Square Enix]]'s {{uv|Final Fantasy}} ''VII'' was announced during a Nintendo Direct on November 12th, 2015 and released on December 15th, 2015. Cloud comes as a set with the stage [[Midgar]].
 
:{{symbol|fe|16px}} {{head|Corrin|g=SSB4|s=24px}} {{SSB4|Corrin}} {{gameIcon|SSB4}} (February 3rd, 2016)
::Newcomer [[Corrin]] from ''Fire Emblem Fates'' was announced during a [[Nintendo_Direct#Super_Smash_Bros._-_Final_Video_Presentation_.28December_15.2C_2015.29|Nintendo Direct on December 15th, 2015]] and released on February 3rd, 2016. Corrin does not have an exclusive stage, but comes as a set with a [[music]] track in both versions; Corrin also comes with exclusive [[trophies]] in the 3DS version and two additional music tracks in the Wii U version.
 
:{{symbol|bayonetta|16px}} {{head|Bayonetta|g=SSB4|s=24px}} {{SSB4|Bayonetta}} {{gameIcon|SSB4}} (February 3rd, 2016)
::Newcomer [[Bayonetta]] from [[SEGA]] and PlatinumGames' {{uv|Bayonetta}} series was announced during a Nintendo Direct on December 15th, 2015 as the Smash Ballot winner, and released on February 3rd, 2016. Bayonetta comes as a set with the stage [[Umbra Clock Tower]].
 
Similar to [[clone]] characters, DLC characters are recognized by being placed in a particular area on the [[character selection screen]], regardless of which franchise from which they hail. When more than four DLC characters are on the ''3DS'' version, and all other characters are unlocked, the DLC characters are labeled "Extra Fighters" on a separate page.
 
DLC characters also lack custom moves, and all have a generic, previously [[Unused content (SSB4)|unused]] [[Palutena's Guidance]] scene. While there are no official reasons for this, the former is presumably due to time and budget constraints, and the latter is presumably due to repeatedly bringing back voice actors each time a character is released.
 
===Stages===

::The 50-Fact Extravaganza confirmed that the Wii U version of ''SSB4'' would contain a special mode that allows players to compete in and host tourneys online, in a similar vein to ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 8}}'' tournaments, though it would not be ready at release. Another part of this mode is an elimination style tournament mode that bears a close resemblance to that of past ''Smash'' games. This type of tourney only begins at set (albeit frequent) times. The mode was later discontinued due to the shutdown of ''Miiverse''.
