This runbook covers TODOS.phase-72.72.12.2.10: DLC and expansion content delivery for downloadable content packs, entitlement verification, and content unlocking.

The implementation lives in @v2/dlc-content-delivery-service at apps/v2/dlc-content-delivery-service/. Its contract is V2/ue/Content/V2/LiveOps/DlcContentDelivery_V2_Contract.json and the validation gate is V2/ue/Tools/check-v2-dlc-content-delivery.py.

Downloadable Packs#

DLC content packs define:

  • packId
  • packKind
  • platformSku
  • entitlementRef
  • contentVersion
  • manifestHash
  • assets
  • unlocks

Supported pack kinds are fighter-pack, story-expansion, and cosmetic-pack. Supported asset and unlock types are fighter, story, and cosmetic.

Entitlement And Unlocking#

buildV2DlcContentDeliverySurface publishes downloadable content packs and their unlock records. planV2DlcContentDownload verifies account entitlement references before returning pending download assets and content unlocking state.

Accounts without the required entitlement receive lockedReason: entitlement-required; they do not receive downloadable assets or unlocked content.

Primary APIs:

  • buildV2DlcContentDeliverySurface
  • planV2DlcContentDownload

Service endpoints:

  • GET /v2/live-ops/dlc/packs
  • GET /v2/live-ops/dlc/packs/{packId}/download-plan
  • POST /v2/live-ops/dlc/packs/{packId}/unlock

Operator Flow#

  1. Author DLC content packs with platform SKU, entitlement reference, content version, manifest hash, downloadable assets, and unlock records.
  2. Publish pack manifests through buildV2DlcContentDeliverySurface.
  3. Verify entitlement refs through planV2DlcContentDownload before returning download assets.
  4. Unlock fighter, story, or cosmetic content only when entitlement verification succeeds.
  5. Keep requiresClientPatch: false; DLC delivery is a content download and entitlement update.
