All updates have been free from release until now.
A lot of DLC has been released for VT2, are there any DLC plans for Darktide?

According to some fairly old information, they donât want to do DLC mission packs. Character classes and weapons are unknown.

Maps, modes and enemy were promised as free
That leave us with:
- Weapons (Atm all have been free)
- Archetype
- Branches

Following Fatsharkâs track record, if weapons were to be DLC theyâd have to be bundled with archetypes⌠is that correct?
Branches are a fairly new addition, so we donât have any âtrack recordsâ for those.

Ah, this noggin of mine. I feel like I have dementia at 23 sometimes. Tsk, tsk, tsk. I almost forgot about those!
Still, Fatshark couldnât really afford to make us pay for weapons as DLCs while the Crafting System is⌠you know, as it is. If they fixed the base weapon stats as per my suggestion, it would go a lot better for everyone involved.

I donât think the crafting is the issue behind paid weapons.
Prem cosmetics are
Premium (and other) cosmetics that absolutely dumpster the weapon style for any weapon that has variants. I think they have issues having âskinsâ that replace the model and skins that donât replace the model.

Variants and model isnât the issue.
Itâs âdlcâ for dlc that is (which is also present if they do paid archetypes
I donât think you understand just how poorly the community would react to having to pay for access to even more RNG weapons.

Itâs more difficult to sell Dlc for Dlc
As in selling Premium Cosmetics for Dlc content.
And afaik there is issues that make it impossible on Xbox (which is why they didnât separate the cosmetic from the careers, and gave the prem cosmetics for free when they did them for the Prem careers)
Hi, sorry if Iâm being stupid, but I donât understand what you are trying to say hereâŚ
You begin by discussing selling premium cosmetics for DLC content, which is the current situation, and I would argue that it is a better way to do business because it ensures that people are not locked out of game modes due to a lack of individual DLC packs, but then you move on to talk about DLC being impossible for Xbox.
I am not a native English speaker (I am a Swede), so it could simply be that I do not speak English well enough to understand what you are saying.
Is there any chance you could explain what you meant further?
your answer is the mission selection system. if maps were DLC content then having a chunk of them get locked because you donât own the DLC and making your ability to chose limited by your wallet would hurt the game pretty badly. their DLC is the cash shop here.

Compare both you will see that in Steam, youâre offered the option of buying the Premium Career, and their (starting) cosmetics, while in the Microsoft store itâs fused.
Likewise, you can see the paid cosmetics in the Microsoft store, (donât know how Steam list those) but there are some missing:
(The 2 other from that round are Allariel and Thyrus Gormann, who both are present)
For better or worseâŚFatshark has switched to live service model supported by the cosmetic shop purchases. I would say for worse.
