adds a substantial chunk of content to the base game, but establishing the exact size of that addition requires some examination of the map. Initially released in 2020, 's world of Night City impressed in many ways, but it wasn't without its handful of disappointments. The new expansion seeks to address criticisms and boost the game to its full potential, with an accompanying 2.0 update delivering a number of overhauls to players who haven't purchased the DLC as well.
The new area that focuses on is a combat zone called Dogtown, located on the southern end of the overall Night City map in the Pacifica district. Its nature is very distinct from the subdistricts of Pacifica available in the base game, as the area is walled off and controlled by a private army. Initially walled off due to a colonel's unwillingness to part with his military holdings, Dogtown was never again restructured thanks to the profitability of its black market leading higher-ups in the city to ultimately turn a blind eye.

Since Dogtown is only one part of the overall sprawl of Night City, it should come as no surprise that the DLC covers significantly less ground than the base game. Dogtown certainly isn't a slight addition, but it's not one focused on vastly expanding the playable area. This isn't a bad thing by any means, as much of Night City struggled with a sense of facade in Dogtown unfortunately doesn't entirely overcome this core problem, but its broken-down infrastructure and areas like the black market are fundamentally interesting enough to provide the DLC location with a healthy dose of character.
