DLC expansions (post-launch releases) are planned on a monthly, quarterly, or six-monthly basis.[1][2]

  • The frequency and size of expansions will be based on the popularity and subscription base of the game.[1]
  • New content will primarily be introduced through the node system. The goal is for existing content to remain relevant alongside the new content.[6]
  • Expansions provide an opportunity for the developers to evaluate ways to unlock content that was not readily experienced by players in the previous release.[7]
Each inflection point, which is those updates as expansions... you get to go back reevaluate. Hey, it seems like 89% of the servers out there never opened this door. Well, maybe the predicates were too granular. Maybe they were too focused. Maybe there's a reason why that didn't happen? Let's expand on that for the next expansion so that this content has an opportunity to come out and see the light of day.[7] – Steven Sharif
