What DLC for Dramatical Murder is and where to find it

DLC (downloadable content) for Dramatical Murder adds extra stories, characters, and scenes to the base game. The main DLC packs are "Re:connect" and "Sweet Pool," which expand the narrative and add new routes you cannot access in the standard version.

Where you find DLC depends on which platform you own the game on. Steam (for PC) sells DLC through the game's store page. Console versions on Nintendo Switch have DLC available through the Nintendo eShop. Mobile versions on iOS and Android handle DLC differently — some content is built into updates rather than sold separately.

Before you buy, check which version of Dramatical Murder you own. The platform matters because installation steps are different for each one, and DLC purchased on Steam will not work on a Switch version, for example.

Key Takeaways

  • DLC for Dramatical Murder is sold through the platform where you own the game — Steam for PC, the Nintendo eShop for Switch, or through in-game stores on mobile.
  • You must own the base game before you can purchase or install any DLC pack.
  • On Steam, DLC installs automatically once you purchase it; on Switch, you read it through the eShop after buying.
  • Mobile versions sometimes include DLC content in regular game updates rather than as separate purchases.
  • DLC purchased on one platform does not transfer to another — a Steam purchase will not work on your Switch.

Installing DLC on Steam (PC)

Open Steam and navigate to your library. Find Dramatical Murder in your games list and click on it. On the game's main page, look for a section labeled "DLC" or "Downloadable Content" — this appears below the game description and screenshots.

Click on the DLC pack you want (usually "Re:connect" or "Sweet Pool"). A window will open showing the price and a button to purchase. Click that button, complete the payment through Steam's checkout, and the DLC will begin downloading automatically. You do not need to do anything else — Steam handles the installation in the background while you play or use your computer.

Once the read finishes, launch Dramatical Murder. The new content will be available in the main menu, usually as a new story route or additional scenes you can select. If you do not see the DLC content after launching, close the game completely and reopen it — sometimes the game needs to refresh its content list.

Installing DLC on Nintendo Switch

On Switch, you purchase DLC through the Nintendo eShop, not through the game itself. Press the X button on your controller to open the home menu, then select the Nintendo eShop icon (it looks like a shopping bag).

Search for "Dramatical Murder" in the eShop. When you find the game, scroll down to the DLC section on its store page. Select the DLC pack you want to purchase, review the price, and confirm the purchase using your Nintendo account. The DLC will read to your console automatically.

After the read completes, launch Dramatical Murder from your games library. The DLC content will be unlocked and ready to access from the main menu. If the new content does not appear when ready, fully close the game (press X and select "Close") and reopen it.

Installing DLC on mobile (iOS and Android)

Mobile versions of Dramatical Murder handle DLC differently than PC or Switch. Some DLC content comes through regular game updates that you read from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). Other content may be purchased directly within the game using in-game currency or real money.

Open the App Store or Google Play and search for Dramatical Murder. If an update is available, you will see an "Update" button. Tap it to read the latest version, which may include new DLC content. After the update installs, launch the game and check the main menu for new story routes or scenes.

If DLC is sold separately within the game, you will usually see a shop or store option in the main menu. Tap it, select the DLC you want, and follow the prompts to purchase. The content will unlock when ready after payment processes.

Troubleshooting when DLC does not appear after installation

The most common reason DLC does not show up is that the game has not fully recognized the purchase. Close Dramatical Murder completely — do not just minimize it. On PC, right-click the game in Steam and select "Properties," then click "Verify Integrity of Game Files." This checks that all game files, including DLC, are properly installed.

On Switch, make sure you are signed into the Nintendo account that purchased the DLC. DLC is tied to the account that bought it, so if you play on a different profile, you will not see the content. Go to System Settings, select "Users," and confirm you are using the correct account.

On mobile, check that you have enough storage space on your device. If your phone or tablet is nearly full, the game may not be able to install DLC properly. Delete unnecessary apps or files to free up space, then try launching the game again.

What to do if you accidentally purchased DLC on the wrong platform

DLC purchases are final and tied to the platform and account you bought them on. Steam DLC cannot be moved to Switch, and vice versa. If you bought DLC on the wrong version, contact the platform's support team — Steam Support, Nintendo Support, or Apple/Google Support depending on where you made the purchase.

Explain that you purchased DLC for the wrong platform. Support teams sometimes issue refunds if you request them shortly after purchase, though policies vary. Even if a refund is not possible, you now know to purchase future DLC on the correct platform.

To avoid this in the future, double-check which version of Dramatical Murder you own before you buy any DLC. If you own multiple versions, make a note of which platform has which DLC so you do not repeat the mistake.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need the base game to install DLC?

Yes. You must own and have installed the base version of Dramatical Murder before you can purchase or use any DLC. Stores will not let you buy DLC without the base game, and the DLC will not run on its own.

Can I share DLC with someone else on my console?

On Switch, DLC is tied to the account that purchased it. Other profiles on the same console can play the game, but they will not see the DLC content unless they are signed into the account that owns it. Steam has similar restrictions — DLC follows the account, not the game copy.

Will DLC work if I play offline?

Yes. Once DLC is installed, you can play it without an internet connection on any platform. You only need internet to read and purchase the DLC initially.

How much storage space does DLC take up?

DLC packs for Dramatical Murder typically take between 500 MB and 2 GB depending on which pack you install. Check your device's available storage before downloading to make sure you have enough room.

What if I uninstall the game — do I lose the DLC?

Your DLC purchase stays tied to your account, but the files are deleted when you uninstall the game. When you reinstall Dramatical Murder, the DLC will read again automatically (on Steam) or be available to read (on Switch and mobile). You do not need to repurchase it.
