    Buy all 5 DLC ($9.99) individually or buy DLC bundle Season Pass ($39.99)?

    So what's the difference?

    I'm new here, and I'm interested in getting the DLCs as i keep getting weapon drops from the DLCs, and without them I can't use those drops.

    But the DLC Season Pass is very confusing.

    Does the Season Pass expires after a while? or they are actually 5 DLC that was for Season 1 of the TV show, and then 5 more $9.99 (each) DLC are or the new Season 2 DLCs ?

    You're getting a $10 discount on all five DLC's by purchasing the Season Pass. It doesn't expire, think of it like a bundle deal for a bit cheaper than all of them individually. No Season 2 DLC is currently being planned, but that could change.

    Season passes are generally just ways to pre-purchase DLC to save on buying them all individually as they come out. Buying it later just means a cheaper DLC pack.

    some one on that thread asked a similar quesiton, about when does the season pass expires.

    3.) The Season Pass will be available along side all the DLC launch content. So if you buy it now or down the road it will be available to purchase. You will still have the option to buy individual DLC if you want to go that route, but understand the cost of each individual DLC will be greater than the bundle offer of all 5.
    because I tried googling the answer before asking here for help, and only that and similar replies were found, and on top of that Steam store is also confusing, and if that's the case, then they are Double Dipping

    Since Steam is selling the Season Pass + each of the 5 DLCs as separate items in a pack of $89.99
    wow! what a rip off.

    This is why I couldn't figure out what was real, good think I asked.

    Thanks to you both for the answer.

    It's not incorrect, they're still adding free content to the game. The DLC comment Sledge made might have been a bit short-sighted, but with all due respect to him, it was a bit of a habit... lol

    I would say that more paid DLC is certainly not out of the question, but I think they have bigger fish to fry right now that would keep them from considering the allocation of resources. Just my assumption based on things they've mentioned in the past. I do know that they said no DLC was currently in the planning stages a few months ago, but that was the last time I heard about it.

    That source of information is from a known pathological liar.

    That's not wrong really, it's saying you get 5 DLC packs but just not saying when they're released. The pass doesn't ever expire, it just gives you the first five (and so far only) DLC.

    My pleasure!!

    Wait, what?!?! Yeah, that's not right at all. First and foremost, the Season Pass gives you all 5 DLC's out currently. If they're trying to sell you the Season Pass + DLC's, there's something wrong there. $89.99 is way off. I don't understand what they're offering at that price.

    I can't see that Steam offer, though I'm on the UK store. It's got the season pass for £24.99 and each DLC for £6.99, but nothing combined.
