Dark Souls 3 by quite a margin

 

[Ultra Donny]

Sounds tender but i'm interpret it like it's not worth playing. thanks.

 

[KiteGr]

If we count free patches, then No Man's Sky and most MMOs would make the list.
As for paid DLCs of what we traditionally think off the term (a bit of extra story and/or gameplay) I would say...

Echoes of the Eye from Outer Wilds
The Witcher 3 Expansions.
Dark Souls 1, 2, 3 and Bloodborne Expansions.

 

[stn]

My main pick was mentioned, so I'll go with the three DLC's for Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin.

 

[Kings Field]

Bloodborne
Dark Souls
Dark Souls 3
Cyberpunk 2077(halfway through and it's amazing)

 

[akaFullmetal]

Borderlands has great dlc content

 

[EverydayBeast]

Way to go for having the best DLC, don't care about that.

 

[proandrad]

if I said that about God Of War Ragnorak I will get banned.

That was last year's best expansion pack.

 

[GymWolf]

Witcher 3, both dlc are better than the main plot.

 

[SirTerry-T]

I enjoyed RDR Undead Nightmare. BOTW: The Champions Ballad too.

 

[YOU PC BRO?!]

Forza Horizon titles always have insane dlc... i.e. Lego, Hot Wheels etc.

The best dlc ever for me was Battlefield Bad Company 2: Vietnam. Was like a completely different game, truly incredible.

 

[L*][*N*K]

That was last year's best expansion pack.

Banned.

 

[StueyDuck]

the ones that are free, so i guess no mans sky?

Who else does free DLC?

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Alan Wake and Sunset Overdrive have some of my personal favorite DLC releases. I don't usually come back to games for DLC, but those feel essential to enjoying the game.

 

[Drizzlehell]

Mass Effect 3, Fallout 3 and The Witcher 3 by far featured my favourite DLC content/expansions out of any other video game.

Something about those third instalments that makes their DLCs sparkle, I guess.

 

[CatLady]

Fallout 3 - It had several really substantial DLCs.
Gears 5 - Hivebusters - really more of a smaller game than DLC, beautiful graphics and great story.

 

[POKEYCLYDE]

Halo 3 map packs brought so much life into that game, especially with the forge maps

 

[marcincz]

Both dlc to Witcher 3 and GTA 4 are great.
Besides I liked some of dlcs to Driveclub.

 

[Trilobit]

Oblivion

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Bioshock 2: Minerva's Den.

 

[LordBlodgett]

Witcher 3 is the best I've ever played, and both Oblivion and Skyrim had big meaty DLC that added a lot to the game. I also thought GTA4 got way better with it's DLC. I'm surprised no one has mentioned the RDR Undead Nightmare DLC. That was basically an entire new game

 

[Beechos]

The gears of war 5 hivebuster dlc was good better than the main game. I dont remember which ones but some of the far cry dlcs weren't bad.

 

[Soodanim]

Look here folks.....if your post launch support isn't looking like this, it don't belong on this list of best dlc lol They did more FOR FREE, then you have AAA companies literally doing that are charging you $30 for features that should be at launch...

Others games like "da cOp cAn dRivE cArZ nOwz" and or "yOu cAn hAcK dA CaR, iT nO mOve"

No Man's Sky: Every Big Update And What Was Added

No Man's Sky just keeps on giving, and with so many expansions over the years, it can be hard to keep track of.

www.thegamer.com

I've not long started NMS, and it's insane how many essential features weren't there at launch

 

[Mozzarella]

Since you said which game has the best dlcs then something that had good packager would be my choice.
Like Witcher 3 with its 2 excellent expansions and New Vegas with its great DLC package. 4 story dlc and 1 expanding on weapons and gear.

 

[Lux R7]

Are we including expansions?

I think the best one all things considered may be Lord of Destruction (Diablo 2)

 

[Solrac]

iceborne

 

[SHA]

Doom 2 Expansions, it's a dlc before there was dlcs, it's really cool expansion, bigger maps, more demons, the base game alone is complete, the expansion just made it on steroids and it didn't felt separate, it was part of the original game.
