'''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.

'''Downloadable content''', usually abbreviated as '''DLC''', is additional content available to download after the games' launch. DLC was first confirmed for ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' in the {{forwiiu}} 50-Fact Extravaganza [[Nintendo Direct]], and can be used to add new playable [[characters]], [[stages]], and even new features. Paid content can be found for purchase on the Nintendo eShop in the Wii U version, and in an in-game DLC shop in the 3DS version (as the eShop is a "full" app on the 3DS, it cannot be open at the same time as the game, regardless of model).


==''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
Downloadable content has been made available in two of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games:

{{main|List of updates (SSB4-3DS)}}
[[Category:Free downloadable content|*]]
{{main|List of updates (SSB4-Wii U)}}

::During the 50-Fact Extravaganza, it was confirmed that the Wii U version of ''SSB4'' will 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 but that it would not be ready at launch. Another part of this mode is an elimination style tournament mode that bears close resemblance to that of past Smash games. This type of tourney will only happen at certain times. This function is set to be added in August 2015.
