Hyrule Warriors has — like many other Koei Tecmo games before it — had a lot of DLC to keep the experience going; there's also a season pass option to pick up the four main packs at a discount. We've already had the Master Quest and Twilight Princess Packs, while the following are still to come:
- Majora's Mask Pack — January 2015 — New playable characters, weapons, Adventure Mode map and costumes
- Boss Pack — February 2015 — New game modes
If you can't wait until then, however, some more DLC is already popping up in the form of inexpensive costume sets. These are the same sets that were available as pre-order bonuses from various retailers in North America or — in the case of the Ganondorf set — a Club Nintendo bonus. They're available now on the eShop in Europe and Australia, though they're not an option in North America at the time of writing.
- Demon King Costume Set — €0.99 / £0.89
- Twilight Princess Costume Set — €0.99 / £0.89
- Skyward Sword Costume Set — €0.99 / £0.89
- Ocarina of Time Costume Set — €0.99 / £0.89
Are you tempted to pick any of these up to add a little more fashionable flair to Link, Zelda and Ganondorf? Let us know.
Thanks to all that sent this in.

At those prices, the skins are very affordable. Will probably be grabbing the ones I don't have.
I'll likely get them soon, though Link'll be staying in the postman outfit
I Have the skyward sword set, so I'll buy the other 2 sets when they hit America. Twilight Zelda >>>
Quite reasonable really, i might get them all
Insert the usual 'I hate you NOA' comment here.
good.
I'll be grabbing the OOT, TP and SS costume packs, whenever they hit America. I already have the Demon King set from registering on Club Nintendo back in October.
So do these costumes come with the Hero of Hyrule pack or not?
Are any or all of these separate skins from the ones provided by the DLC?
@CapnKael <--- what he said.
Considering the "quality" of bosses in this game I'm not to thrilled for the last dlc pack.
I feel sorry for the people who paid $100+ for the Twilight Princess costumes.
@CapnKael @shigulicious No, the Hero of Hyrule pack contains all DLC except the preorder ones.
So these costumes aren't available to purchase in the U.S.?
@majinx07 They will be eventually,you just have to wait old sport.
i'm painting a scarf on a woven edge rayon ribbon,it's a mini version of the hyrule scarf for Link amiibo to wear, it's so CUTE!!!! I also want to make one for our cat Fluffer too.
@Grumblevolcano Thanks!
Can't wait for this to hit NA, I'm going to pick up those Skyward Sword costumes.
Reggie dropped the ball again. Only kidding. NoA is probably gonna release the costumes on Thursday. I'll save my anger for when I turn out to be wrong.
Wake me up when these actually appear on the US eShop.
For most of you who can't make their own, they should make all items available to you no matter WHERE you are in the world if you wanted them..... NINTENDO is BIG ENOUGH to be able to do anything IF THEY WANTED TO. THEY are large, you'd think they would want to please their 'people'
I guess in NA, its just a matter of "but we had the exclusive distribution rights" issue.
Nevertheless, downloading it right now. My OCD waited for these packs for quite some time now :3
Pretty good value, glad they are finally here.
Getting Twilight and Ocarina right away!
Finally, I'be been waiting awhile to get the skyward sword set and twilight princess. Once it comes to NA...
eBay was selling these for $10.00-$160.00 dollars. Some people be crazy, yo, but they actually paid for this mess. Hoping for Fierce Diety Link costume and Double Helix Swird when Majora's Pack releases. Maybe having a Demise costume for Ganondorf would be great as well.
My addictive personality requires that I purchase the two (TP and SS) costume packs I'm missing. Thankfully they're inexpensive.
I too wish to purchase both the Twilight Princess and Slyward Sword costume sets.
Finally! I have been waiting for Skyward Sword Zelda.
wow zelda looks amazing.
I'm glad to hear this. I couldn't grab it when I originally released because of Smash Bros. for 3DS, but I really wanted some of these costumes.
Yes, it's cheap, but every time €0,90 is a lot for every single game. You can get a whole game when you count that all together. Never been into DLC anyway.
Whew. I was waiting for this to happen. I'm getting this game for Christmas so this is perfect timing!
My game glitched and now I have all the Boss characters without having bought any DLC... Not that I'm complaining!
@shadowhive
Soo true! Postman 4 Life!
The though of a fourth adventure map is frightening. I won't live long enough to complete everything in this game.
I do like how KT makes these available in other games... it's good for your favourite characters, but ridiculous if you try to collect them all. Here at least there aren't many. I've spent $80 on this game, and it's well worth it to me.
I don't even remember what costume pack I have! LOL. I preordered from Gamestop and have the Ganondorf set, so now I have to remember what the other costume pack I need. I know Skyward Sword is one of my needs.
@4estGump Gamestop gave the Ocarina of Time pack so you need Twilight Princess.
Those sets really could've used some polish. They're very rough around the edges. The OOT ones especially... Zelda doesn't even have legs under her dress, and when she's running it's the most awkward thing I've seen in a game in years... :
The OOT link and Ganondorf are very low-poly, and the underside of SS's Zelda's dress is just a solid block, plus she has a golden chain around her waist that's painfully obviously a simple 2D sprite.
At a glance they're all cool looking, but upon closer inspection they bear all the marks of a rush job. Such a shame, really, 'cos I was definitely looking forward to this DLC.
@shinokami I don't feel sorry for them, they are idiots who are encouraging this kind of dlc delivery in the future.
wish I knew this BEFORE I wasted what money I had left on crappy 3DS themes
I didn't find the Warriors Orochi 3 costumes very compelling (still working through the level packs, though), but given these are looks from different games for these iconic characters, I'm sold.
Skyward Sword Zelda is so cute
@sinalefa
Thank you for inserting that for me
I don't hate them, but it's funny how 90% of the time they seem to drop the ball on the little stuff: club Nintendo, DLC, Virtual Console releases, etc.
@Azikira I don't think that's a glitch mate, they made the boss characters available to everyone as a free update.
Once these come to NA and when we get the Ganondorf costumes, I might pick the game up then.
Someone asked to insert the hate for NoW here, so here ya go.
As someone who foolishly forgot to register on Club Nintendo in time, I'm thrilled I can get the Ganondorf set, after all (that is, whenever it's released in North America)...
Yay! I dislike when Pre-order DLC never becomes available later. It's DLC, there's no reason to hold it back just because I bought the game on the eShop rather than as a physical disc.
At that price I might get them too!
And to think people were paying $20 or more for one of these packs on eBay.
There! Downloaded!
I'll get Skyward Sword, and possibly OoT (Don't like the Link, but the Zelda looks okay). I'm not a fan of Twilight Princess, so I'll skip on that one.
Last I checked, America was #1. So the fact that we don't have these for purchase yet is basically the equivalent of Reggie slapping a bald eagle.
@DiscoGentleman The price should be 99 cents each.
'Gaudy Polygons', 'Moody Verisimilitude', or 'Puffy Pastels'; which pack will you choose?
If I so had the time and cash I'd get EVERYTHING Hyrule Warriors, but alas... my time and my wallet.....
I wonder why the US is always behind lately.
Hey guys I downloaded the hyrule warriors hero of hyrule dlc bundle that has all three packs, but I don't see the alternate skins( the tp, Oot, and SS link skins shown above for example) can you guys help me out with what I did wrong? Do I need to unlock them in the game somehow( just got the game christmas so I'm still messing around on legend mode)
@Gakaiju Okay I just realized those are seperate, so when are the costumes going to be released in NA's eshop?
All of them are up in North America now!
