Downloadable content or DLC is a very smart and effective way of extending the life of your game. The way this increases the life of your game is by adding more ways to play and the total time to keep the player playing. DLC acts as a boost to help players pick back up the game once it has either stop being fun, or too many players are starting to reach the end. In a way, Downloadable content becomes a second wind to breathe new life into a game.   
This is why when creating downloadable content you must make sure that it keeps the core value of the game intact. DLC more like microtransactions have an advert effect and begin to deter players. It could even kill off a future fanbase. This is one reason that games like Destiny 2 lost many returning players. Even games like the NBA 2k franchise has seen some player not likely to return for over microtransactions. DLC mustn't make the player feel like it's the only way to win.
