All Costume DLC free on PSN?!.... (photos of proof)

[Cla]

All the individual DLC packs are being listed as Free on PSN.

But I already have them all purchased so I'm not sure that I have a way to verify this myself since I already had access to them and I already have them all downloaded. Someone else check PSN and verify if you can really download these DLC packs for free.

INB4 "They're "Free" because you already own them": Uhh... no. Things you purchased show up as "Purchased", which you can see in the first pic for the Zack Island stage DLC.

The only thing I can think of as to why there's a differentiation between the Zack Island Stage saying "purchased" and the costumes saying "free" is that the stage was free to begin with and PSN is just letting you know you already downloaded it. Maybe the costumes say free because ordinarily they are $4.99 apiece, but because you already paid for them once, they're trying to let you know that you can re-download them again in case there is a problem, free of charge.

But yeah it is strange that they don't let you know you already purchased them. I only have the Xbox 360 version and no PS3 so I can't check PSN to see what's going on.

I'm hoping other people with PS3s can come on here and let me know what they see. This is strange because it definitely did not used to be like this before. And all other things I have purchased are properly showing up as Purchased.

Oh and I forgot to mention that I did check XBL and all the DLCs are still listed with costs on there.

Just checked US, UK and German PSN. Nothing is free on there
Still strange that it says free instead of purchased on your acc.

It could have to do with the Vita and ps3 cross compatibility. Since you said you already bought the dlc it could show up as free so you can download it using your profile on a Vita

I was thinking that too, but not knowing for sure how the Vita cross-play costumes were set up on PSN, I thought it would be best if a PS3 and/or Vita user brought that up.

They'll say free if you purchased them already.

Q1: How can I download content purchased on PS3 to PS Vita?
A1: 1. Go to PS Store for PS Vita and navigate to the Dead or Alive 5 Plus page.
2. Confirm the following before downloading Cross-Goods:
　・The price is listed as "Free".
