sbloccabili

Sbloccabili is the plural form of the Italian adjective sbloccabile, meaning capable of being unlocked. In Italian gaming and media discourse, sbloccabili describe content that is not initially accessible but can be made available through conditions or actions. The term derives from sbloccare, to unlock.

In video games, sbloccabili include characters, weapons, levels, game modes, skins, or bonuses that require players to meet criteria. Some unlockables are permanent across playthroughs; others may grant temporary advantages or cosmetic changes. The concept also appears in other media, such as apps or collectibles, where items become available after completing tasks or achievements.

Unlocking typically happens by progressing through a story, completing challenges, collecting items, earning achievements, or spending in-game currency. Unlocks may be tied to free progression, optional side quests, or paid downloadable content (DLC). Designers use unlockables to reward effort, extend replay value, and guide players toward exploring features, while balancing pacing and accessibility.

In English, the equivalent term is unlockable content or unlockables. The Italian term sbloccabili is most common in Italian-language contexts; related verbs include sbloccare (to unlock) and related adjectives such as sbloccabile.
