"During the seventh generation of consoles, Sony and Microsoft quickly jumped aboard the digital bandwagon. In addition to allowing full game downloads on their consoles, both the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 had large amounts of DLC. Over time, both microtransactions and free-to-play titles also took a large presence on both the consoles. Now in the eighth generation of gaming hardware, companies such as Ubisoft and EA---and to a lesser extent Sony and Microsoft themselves---have increased the presence of this downloadable content in games on both the PS4 and Xbox One" -- Nintendo Enthusiast.
