Background
Set up DLCs
In this how-to guide, we are going to create a DLC in LootLocker and then set up the corresponding information in Steam. This guide will walk you through implementing DLCs in both LootLocker, Steam, and in-game.
What are DLCs
The LootLocker DLC feature lets you create a unlockable group of unlockable Assets that are connected to First Party DLC systems. DLCs are created on the First Party website as well as in the LootLocker DLC Menu, and then connected together with a DLC identifier or id. When a player starts your game, LootLocker (with the help of the game client) checks their First Party account for any new DLC, and then migrates the content into their Inventory. Learn more about DLCs here.
