Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Zelda: Breath of the Wild getting paid DLC (new hard mode/new dungeons/new story)

nintendo "unique experience"

I'm fine with story paid dlc, but paid difficulty mode? Geebzus chris

Hard mode as paid DLC would be absolutely terrible



Is that price for all the content or for each DLC pack?



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

For the expansion pass that includes all the content, They will probably have seperat prices when they launch of like £9.99 would be my guess.

It's the price for all of the content. The end of the announcement says that the two DLC packs cannot be purchased individually, so the mentioned price cannot be anything else than the price for the complete set.

Good. I may get it for the dungeon, hard mode and new story.

Congrats to those that love dlc.

Not sure what I'll do. Don't care for the t-shirt and likely not the items either. Most likely be early overpowered items that quickly become irrelivent.

Hard-mode? That's a shame its behind paywall. If I want to replay game, I will purchase that I'm sure. Wodner why it's behind a paywall and not on release. Are they changing hardmode? Usually hard mode is just you take double damage in Zelda and no hearts in grass/pots/ect. Don't see how that couldn't be ready for launch, or part of the first DLC if they wanted.

Don't care about cave of ordeals.

New story/dungeon. depends on size and if still want to play the game 9 months after release. Sure a new story and dungeon would want me to play again, but only if its a decent size. Hardly worth popping back in to play an hour long dungeon and that be it.


All in all, BOOO DLC.



Guess this explains what they were doing while waiting for the Switch to launch. If the game is great then this is only a good thing, let's you get more out of a great game if you so choose. It says "a NEW hard mode" so maybe that means the old hero mode from most Zelda games is still in the main package.

Well, so far we don't know about the new hard mode. It doesn't mean the game does not have another mode already on the game. Remember that TP HD has 3 different difficulty levels, one behind an amiibo, and this could be the same.

Hard mode and a "new map feature" behind a paywall... Isn't that a new low?

Fire Emblem Awakening's DLCs were already part of the worst I've ever seen, it's curious to see something even worse.

But hey, people are going to buy it and thank them for that great idea, so why wouldn't they do it?



That came out of nowhere. IMHO this is all content that will be made AFTER the game has gone gold, it probably was supposed to come out at launch but they couldn't make it so they put it under Expansion Pass with an additional story and a new dungeon to not make it obvious , overall I prefer to pay 20€ more than to wait until holiday 2017 to play Zelda, but I hope they will never do this again...
