Hyrule Warriors Legends owners (and those with the Wii U original) have been waiting for the third DLC pack, and it was thrown in as part of the Nintendo Direct shenanigans - it's out today.
As you'd expect the Phantom Hourglass & Spirit Tracks riffs on the character designs from those two games, with the official trailer keen to show off Toon Link's train, in particular.
If you have a season pass you'll get this as part of that deal; it's worth noting that the pack on Wii U only includes Toon Zelda as a playable character and the Sand Wand weapon for Toon Link; a lot of the extra goodies are exclusive to Legends on 3DS. These include 15 My Fairy Costume Pieces, the 'Grand Travels' Adventure Mode Map, one new Adventure Battle and two new Challenge Battles.
Are any of you Hyrule Warriors fans going to try out this DLC today?

This was the best part of the Direct for sure!
Goodness this game is so fun and so huge, I don't think I'll ever get to that adventure map.
I really wish all this content was coming to Wii U version. I have loved this game, but even though I can justify buying DLC for it I can't justify also buying the game on 3DS.
Its weird that Wii U owners didn't get most of this.
The Wii U versions DLC is pretty bare bones by comparison. It's a bit haphazard as well. I bought the first DLC Pack and I bought the Hyrule Legends Character Pack a while back I dunno, it's all a bit pricey. I think I need to spend another €10 for these new packs but it's all a bit much. €40 on DLC and we're charged the same price as 3DS owners but get less content.
@ap0001 it is unbelievable how much content that game has. I'm still working on the Wind Waker maps and only touched on the Links Awakeing one.
Meanwhile on Wii U...
We've all voiced it, but it doesn't help
Legends now has DLC featuring Link's Awakening and Spirit Tracks, both under-appreciated and great portable Zeldas, in my opinion. Maan, is that a pleasant surprise, having such great content in a game I underestimated so much.
If I upgrade to an N3DS in the near future, I'll be picking up Hyrule Warriors Legends (and it's DLC).
I just bought the previous DLC two days ago as a bundle. I wonder if this one will come free then!
@Mr_Zurkon I got the game for my birthday in May and I just unlocked Tingle on the first adventure map two nights ago. There's like 40% of the map left uncovered, let alone A-ranked, and I think Zant and Ghirahim (and possibly others?) are still hiding on it, to say nothing of any adventure maps past the first.
I really loved Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks on the DS, both great titles. So this is a very nice surprise, with nostalgic value for me.
@RatKing64 If you bought the "Legends of Hyrule Pack" you will get the last 2 DLC releases (Master Wind Waker and Link's Awakening), this DLC (Phantom Hourglass & Spirit Tracks) and the next DLC (A Link Between Worlds) without paying anymore money.
I really wanted to like this game, but the lack of local multiplayer ruined it for me. The 3DS needs more multiplayer/co-operative games!
@Grumblevolcano
Awesome! Thanks for letting me know.
@Equinox : Yes. I always compared Wii U to VITA already.
Wii U also get some niche games too, and still full Indie support.
Wii U and VITA is still in same boat.
You also get an adorable new Fairy companion for My Fairy and it says the level cap is now 200.
I've been playing this game since it came out and I only have one character over 50 ;-;
@Ventilator Not exactly. Nintendo still made games for the Wii U. Sony barely acknowledges the Vita anymore
Update also raises the level cap to 200, and some "new" fairy skills that seem identical to some others, also, rainbow level skill?
Yee, this was my fav part about the direct...and only part I liked...Toon Zelda is pretty fun to play as! also don't forget about the spotpass content!
It says I've already downloaded this when I go into Add-on content, but it's not showing up... Can anyone help?
No Linebeck?
Makes me sad.
Sadly the update is kind of useless for the Wii U since it just add new weapons and characters with no new adventure maps. THis way if you already did everything on Wii U you will feel kind of bored by those new characters and I believe these new characters won't get their skins since they are from the new adventure maps.
Overall the 3DS version is the definitive version, sadly it require a New 3DS to enjoy the game at the best frame rate.
Sweet Toon Zelda!
@Undead_terror
Is she? She's slow, her strong attacks aren't particularly fun nor useful except for the one she shares with medli... she's kinda a worse medli. They could at least have given her a dark element, being a phantom and all.
Overall, I'm dissappointed with how she turned out.
i got into the musou games because of hyrule warriors on wii u. even after playing the deeper samurai warriors, dynasty warriors and warriors orochi games, hyrule warriors is the best of them. if only the wii u version had the switchable characters of the 3ds, and/or the 3ds had a better screen - the vita cutscenes are delectable.
@Outrunner you need to update your game to ver 1.5.0 either through the eshop or the prompt when u go to start the game. I had to wait til just now before I got the prompt so if u haven't gotten it yet don't worry just be patient. I know it's hard!
I am very tempted to get Hyrule Warriors Legends following this. I know I am in a minority but I love Spirit Tracks! It was covered in one of the first Nintendo Magazines I bought for myself and I have loved it ever since. Plus I love the amount to which Zelda is involved in the plot. Sure she remains something of a damsel in distress but she isn't sitting around all day to be rescued and that really adds to the character.
I love the new DLC! I thought Toon Zelda (Thanks, leaks) was going to be a sluggish character compared to the rest, but her moveset here makes her one of the best characters (in my opinion.) I also love how Toon Link got his train.
@khaosklub Opinions are opinions.
@Undead_terror
Yes, opinions are opinions, of which I expressed 1, that her attacks aren't fun.
The rest are all facts. Her attacks are on the slow side. Strong 1 is the same as darunia's except no explosions, and no juggle. Stong 2 is almost the same as medli's strong 2 minus some lag, strong 3 are just 3 strong hits ahead, okay in duel scenarios, that's about it. And strong 4 is the same as medli's stong 4, and she has the same element as medli.
Her strong attack is similar to darunia's without the capturing effect. This one may be fun, but not particularly useful, you're pretty much better off using her neutral combo in all scenarios, which is a less effective version of the master sword combo, which is also light element. At lest she can use weapon skills whereas the master sword cannot.
She's pretty much a lackluster combination of other people's less useful combos.
If she at least had a good keep clearing attack, or giant boss weakness gauge buster, but she doesn't. A good spin attack, in combo or strong attack would have been nice
