A lot of new information has surfaced in regards to the first of four packs of DLC coming to Hyrule Warriors. The first set; Master Quest Pack will be releasing on 16th October in both Europe and America.

One of the first big confirmations is that finally Epona will be coming to the battlefield (outside it’s cameo as Link’s victory pose), where it will be used as a Weapon type for Link causing mayhem on the battlefields across Hyrule.

There is a new scenario, which is comprised of 5 battles focused on Cia’s dominance over Hyrule. She (along with Volga and Wizzro) will be releasing as playable characters in a free patch the same day as this DLC arrives.

As for even more content, there will be a new Adventure Mode map, where you can also enable “Master Quest Rules” which take away all the Hearts you can obtain within the mode for increased rewards, to give you that extra challenge and satisfaction. Also there are two new “Guardian of Time” outfits for both Cia and Lana to enjoy!

 

That’s about it so far, are you looking forward to the DLC? Will you be buying the Hero of Time Pack (which includes all 4 DLC sets as they release)? Let us know in the comments!

NEWS: Fatal Frame V: Oracle of the Sodden Raven – Bonus Ayane Episode Revealed

With the release of Fatal Frame V: Oracle of the Sodden Raven over the weekend in Japan, more information of the game has been revealed. There is a “Bonus Episode” that is to feature a crossover between Dead or Alive and Fatal Frame with the star studded lady Ninja Ayane taking the lead.

Here is the Story description:

Ayane is requested to find Tsumugi Katashina, who disappeared at the mountain. She (Ayane) uses her “purple thread” power to track down Tsugumi.

Since Ayane can’t defeat any ghosts, she needs to hide and sneak around to progress. She has a “script of hiding” that she can apply to her back to make herself invisible to ghosts. If she’s caught by a ghost, she can use the light of the Spirit Stone Torch to knock back and temporarily stun them.

After sneaking into an abandoned building, she is gravely wounded, but manages to flee.

It certainly feels out of place to see a titular character such as Ayane enter a more down to earth atmosphere filled with psychological horrors, but maybe it fits better then we think? The screenshots certainly suggest it is possible – but you be the judge!

How do you feel about the addition of Ayane? Would you like to play this episode if the game comes to the west? Let us know in the comments!

Good news for all you Hyrule Warriors fans out there! A bevy of new content is coming it’s way!

To start off with, on September 30th, the game will be receiving a free patch update that’ll be adding extra stability, along with making Cia, Volga and Wizzro playable characters! You’ll be able to enjoy their badass move sets in all of Hyrule!

Next up there is a four DLC pack set confirmed called The Hero of Time Set. This will price at £13.50/€14.99/$19.99. You can purchase it now (or as soon as it releases in America), and you will receive the DLC packs as they release. Also if you do buy it now you will receive a Dark Link costume straight away for free!

The first DLC pack is called Hyrule Warriors Master Quest Pack. It will be releasing in October and features the following content:
1 New Scenario.
1 New Weapon.
A new adventure mode map.
2 Costumes.

The second is called Twilight Princess Pack, and will be releasing in November. It contains the following content:
1 New Character (currently not known who)
1 New Weapon.
A new adventure mode map.
2 Costumes.

The third is called Majora’s Mask Pack, and will be releasing in January 2015. It contains the following content:
Two New Characters (both unknown)
A new adventure mode map.
3 Costumes.

And finally, the fourth set is called Final Boss Pack. It will be releasing in February 2015 and contains the following content:
2 New Game Modes.

You can get all the above in one purchase at the price stated earlier. So all in all this seems like it is very much worth the price with the amount of new and extra additions the game is receiving. Also the note the new content is currently in development, which is why it is spaced out and information is scarce.

What do you think of this news? Will you be buying the Hero of Time Set?Who do you hope the new characters are? Let us know!
