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). What this means is that DLC not purchased in an updated version is still technically installed but locked, and thus is accessible indirectly. Completing a transaction to receive DLC is merely a 'ticket' to grant access to said content. Nintendo did not release any detailed information as official announcements.Īs with any other game, DLC data gets added via free updates. Change-logs for all updates are available at the links above. Most updates also adjust game balance and mechanics, while fixing glitches and other errors as well.
The game must be updated to the latest version to purchase DLC, which is done automatically after starting the game from the system's main menu. Updates to the game are downloadable at no extra cost. Main article: List of updates (SSB4-Wii U)
