They all take place before the main events of the game, but fill in the gaps between them before you came along. The other biggest change is the addition of Side Stories, six new tales that deepen the relationships between the characters. Since it's optional, you can choose to have them off if you want to play the game raw.
which goes a long way to assisting players. Turning on content warnings in the settings gives you a pop-up when you're about to see something disturbing - suicidal ideation, puke, blood, etc. Doki Doki Literature Club has always been upfront that the game has "disturbing subject matter," but now you can know exactly when you're about to be shocked by said subject matter. The original game did have a small warning with a URL to go to if you want more detailed information, but the Plus version has them built in so you can read them while staying in-game before you even begin. I won't get into spoiler territory because story points should be experienced mostly blind, but Plus adds optional content warnings, which are very welcome considering the heavy subject matter. And now it's available on all platforms instead of just PC. It's still the same game, but it feels more like a version of the game the developer, Team Salvato, wanted to make. The new content doesn't change the crux of the game - it's still just as vibrant and disturbing as you remember - but some of the biggest changes either add depth to the already-present systems or, in the case of new content warnings, make the game more accessible to new players.

This dating sim was actually not a dating sim at all, but a horror game, and the transition from poppy visual novel to dark, gruesome tale made for some of the most emotionally impactful gaming in recent memory. The seemingly innocuous and free-to-play visual novel about a student who joins a literature club filled with dateable prospects became famous because it was everything but what it said on the tin.
Doki Doki Literature Club was once a hidden gem on Steam when it first launched in 2017.
