It unlocks the team JNPR to play with: Jaune, Nora, Pyrrha, and Ren!
Jaune is a good support.
Nora blows everything up and even says "Boop" often, and that's so Nora.
Pyrrha might seem weak gameplay-wise, but her Ultimate is hella strong.
Ren has awesome attack combos.

A good DLC pack. JNPR is much more diverse than Team RWBY. Nora's slower but stronger attacks, and OP ranged attacks. Pyrrha sucks at ranged, but her melee is quick and strong. Plus, five bucks for the 4 new characters? It's a decent price.
You get a world-renowned warrior, a girl who can bench 5 times her weight, a ninja, and Jaune! What more could you want! Well....Cinder, but still!

There is that aspect of the game which everyone enjoys with the story and playing your favourite characters from the show but the gameplay is so boring. All you're doing is going into a new area defeating a set amount of enemies, you might be defending something you don't know and battling through waves. It's the same thing over and over again. If you are obsessed witht he show then go ahead and buy the game but if you care for gameplay then you better love repeating the same thing over and over again. Maybe there is a boss, most of the time not.

Team JNPR DLC gives you 4 more characters to play as, each with their unique playstyles giving some additional fun to this game. Having Miss Nikos alone alive is worth the price of admission, however I do note that some of the voiceactors seem off....maybe its me.
All in all...extends the life of the base game.

All hail the Queen... and her court!
Where Team RWBY is prefect for beginner players, JNPR is great for the intermediate players who have gotten used to working strategically.
Jaune is a wonderful team player- use his ultimate and bring down the seas of Grimm with your pals. Plus he's fun to listen to.
Nora is a electrified siege tank- have her hammer her way through all your opponents or blast a crater with your love <3
PYRRHA'S ALIVE AND KICKING!!! Her combos can knock out most enemies in a heartbeat and her shield and spear will protect her friends.
Ren will use his aura to keep the monsters at bay and he's not fazed by anything...
This is a must-buy if you want to enhance your RWBY experience.

What it says on the tin. 4 new playable characters.
Jaune has very Jauney lines. He also has abilities that shine most when others join the fight making him sort of a support.
Ren is stoic.
Nora is a bomber.
Pyrrha is alive.

The characters are well made, balanced, and play to their own strengths. RT Games definitely stepped it up with making quality characters to play that feel unique and fun. Horde mode (which is free with the base game, but did come out at the same time as this DLC) is excellent and more enjoyable than the Campaign.
My only gripe with this DLC, which has been stated in many other reviews, is that Team JNPR absolutely outclasses Team RWBY. I wish they would take this experience back to the drawing board and redo team RWBY. If not, maybe add a "Time-Skip" set of characters for RWBY in the future that fixes them. I honestly do not even enjoy playing Team RWBY anymore with Team JNPR as a much better, and honestly more enjoyable, option.

I'm writing this review while using the characters for the first time, to record my initial thoughts. Overall, the characters play a bit differently than RWBY, and Pyrrha and Ren especially are quite fun to play, imho. They don't seem overpowered, in fact, I would predict that there will be few Jaunes, but an even number of the other characters with RWBY after the novelty wears off. For me, this is worth the $5 price tag.
Now, for my notes on each character individually, given ~1 hour of play (total) with the 4:
Pyrrha
+ Light attack combos. Especially since you can upgrade her basic combo, you can actually use light attacks effectively without heavy attack finishers, and can easily change targets in the middle of the combos.
+ Ranged counter. Having a ranged counter, to counter without leaving your current target, is great.
- No sword. Her weapon is always in spear or gun configuration. This isn't horrible, but I was hoping to see one move where it was a sword.
-Really slow team attacks. Seriously, they take like half a year to execute.
Nora
+ Powerful ranged attack. The power of her ranged attack seems to be similar in power to Weiss's ranged. She trades freezing and homing for indirect fire and landmines, though.
+ Generally powerful attacks, similar to Yang.
+ It's Nora.
- Slow and somewhat awkward attacks. She probably has the slowest attacks in the game.
Ren
+ Good character for maneuvering (like Blake, but less so)
+ Packs a punch (like Yang)
+ Really interesting ultimate (multi-target, non-AoE)
- Powerful charged Heavy attack requires Aura to use (after upgrade)
- Ranged is a bit meh (and can't be upgraded)
Jaune
... and Jaune! (kidding)
+ Powerful basic attacks
+ Great team bonuses (though short lived)
+ Shield bash is interesting
- Poor dodging skills
- No ranged attack
- Slow speed (and slow dodge)

Absolutely worth 5€.
With this DLC, there is actually some variety in the gameplay of different characters. While everyone in Team RWBY plays pretty much the same "Hack'n'Slash like you don't care"-style except for Weiss, we have a whole different role behaviour in Team JNPR.
Juane plays a supporter role, which is actually pretty weird for a Leader. His ult actually buffs your allies and yourself. Juane is also the only character in the game that has no gun whatsoever.
Noras weapon swings slower than any other character, therefore she does damage that is out of this world. Be careful around this badass!
Pyrrah is exactly as OP as she should be. Her spear swings fast and strong, her ult does damage like fuck and she counters enemies without teleporting into the danger zone. Absolutely useful and still cute. Everyone should love her.
Rens attacks focus on range, given that he weilds 2 pistols. He does a decent amount of close range damage, but his ranged attacks are far more useful as they damage bigger groups of enemies instead of just one enemy at a time. Also, his taunt is fucking hilarious.
CONCLUSION:
Thank you very much for this amazing update Roosterteeth. Keep up the good work! Please play around more with the game, let us play more levels and characters, and this amazing arcade slasher will be even more of a total hit!
