Fresh DLC often lives in the margins – an extra playlist here, a side story there – but this latest batch of releases shows just how elastic post-launch content can be when developers lean into tone, identity, and mechanical intent rather than simple expansion. From crossover storytelling that deliberately reshapes a familiar co-op shooter, to a single-song rhythm add-on that trades quantity for emotional impact, and a deckbuilding expansion that knowingly piles complexity atop an already dense foundation, these new drops explore very different ideas of what meaningful DLC looks like.

Recent DLC releases continue to shape and refine some of today’s biggest franchises, offering everything from disciplined roster expansions to ambitious narrative reimaginings and system-heavy content drops.

Walkabout Mini Golf’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland DLC stakes a claim to be one of the more imaginative chapters in the series yet, weaving Lewis Carroll’s iconic imagery into a playable mini golf course that at times feels more like a VR diorama than a straight sequence of holes. From the outset, Mighty Coconut’s intention is clear: rather than just dress a typical Walkabout course in a familiar theme, they aimed to transport players down the proverbial rabbit hole, shrinking and growing through environments that recall Wonderland’s topsy-turvy antics while retaining the game’s core design philosophy.
