Texture pack (downloadable content)

In Bedrock, Legacy Console, and New Nintendo 3DS editions, a texture pack is a type of downloadable content that can be bought from the Marketplace (or the platform's storefront in Legacy Console Edition) which customizes the appearance of the game by replacing the default textures.
In addition to separately available texture packs, mash-up packs come bundled with texture packs as well.
