Plus: How Rimworld Shows DLC Strategy Done Right
The primary objective of this analysis is to evaluate current market trends and monetization strategies within the PC and console gaming sectors, specifically focusing on Steam, Epic Games Store, and major consoles during late October 2022.
- High-quality, substantial DLC expansions can significantly boost player engagement, as evidenced by RimWorld’s Biotech release doubling its average concurrent user count from 13k–20k to nearly 40k.
- Maintaining a disciplined pricing strategy, such as RimWorld’s practice of rarely discounting the base game by more than 10%, allows developers to sustain high average purchase prices and reach a total bundle value of $95 years after launch.
- The 'three-in-one' content model is a viable strategy for justifying higher DLC price points, with RimWorld successfully commanding a $25 price for its Biotech expansion.
