Hyrule Warriors Legends - and to a lesser degree Hyrule Warriors on Wii U - have delivered a decent amount of DLC this year. The final pack due in the Season Pass has now been outlined, and it includes some rather neat extras.
The pack is based on The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, and it's been confirmed that Ravio and Yuga will be the new playable characters. If you have the season pass on the Wii U these playable characters will be the final additions, while they represent just part of the pack on 3DS.
As expected there'll also be a new map for Adventure Mode, one new Adventure battle and two new Challenge Battles.
Finally, there'll be 15 new My Fairy costume pieces, and 17 extra character costumes, some of which are below.
The DLC is due on 31st October in Japan, so will hopefully come at the same time or shortly after in the West - it'll be included with the season pass or cost $6.99 / £6.29 / €6.99 on 3DS, and $4.99 / £4.49 / €4.99 on Wii U.
Are you planning to pick it up?
With thanks to Allav866 for the heads up.

Looks good.
I like the Fi costume.
I'm so far behind on the Grand Travels Map! Oops.
My Game of the Year is back for more
Really looking forward to it though returning back to Master Quest map this week to get the remainder of the level 3 weapons.
I do think there will be a final surprise within the next few months so the character select screen is tidy (maybe Groose).
"some of which are below"
I suppose they didn't show the final costume for Link yet because they're saving the best for last: a Breath Of The Wild costume.
Where is Nabooru?
@Grumblevolcano Or Nintendo will unveil Hyrule Warriors Deluxe for the Switch, with all the Legends maps and characters, as well as a new Skyward Sword map where you unlock Groose.
@AlexSora89 You never know!
Yuga looks beastly!
Got the season pass so will check it out
@allav866 Vaati would be a good choice too.
You said that Ravio and Yuga will be the final additions for the Wii U version, but isn't that version getting the extra costumes too? The models used are the Wii U version's after all.
@ziffy Probably being saved for Hyrule Warriors SUPER LEGENDS for the Nintendo Switch, alongside Groose, A Breath of the Wild Costume for Link, Adventure Mode Maps based on Ocarina of Time, Skyward Sword, and Breath of the Wild, and a new "Linkle's Second Tale," where she meets Marin, Ravio, Yuga, and Groose, and it takes place during the events of the Wind Waker portion of Legend Mode. But remember: Koei Tecmo mainly caters to the Japanese, not weeabos like you!
@Tsurii Or have more characters and maps added as DLC like they did with the previous games, so everyone can be happy. I personally think it would be nice to have another obscure character, like Beedle, but no one else seems to care about him, despite how many games he's been in.
@TheHumbleFellow Of course! I also want Veran and Onox, but Cia and Link w/Gauntlets kind of nullify the need for those characters.
@Tsurii His weapon could be a Bait Bag, which he slaps opponents upside the head with for weak attacks, then finishes his combos by throwing bait to call pigs and seagulls to his aid!
@allav866 Well Skyward Sword and Ocarina of Time packs were rumoured for the Wii U version and seeing as MK8 DLC Pack 3 has pretty much been confirmed in the form of the Switch trailer maybe it'll happen. But if that happened I expect another season pass as games like Hyrule Warriors, MK8, Smash, Splatoon and Super Mario Maker with more DLC or free updates in the case of Splatoon and Super Mario Maker should be key in lessening the damage from inevitable game droughts (I don't believe the merge will do much in terms of game quantity).
Traded in my Wii U copy a while ago, unfinished. Not half the entertainment value of a proper Zelda title.
The second wave of DLC for the Wii U version of this game has sucked big time in comparison to the 3DS version. No maps for Adventure Mode, no Adventure Battles and no Challenge Battles. No My Fairy costume pieces, and no character costumes. They completely gave up on Wii U long ago.
Look at Super Mario Maker too. When was the last update for that game? Months ago. They've no problem giving 3DS owners ports of Wii U games when it would be far easier to port 3DS games to Wii U. They've completely screwed us Wii U owners over and yet they'll have their hand out asking for money for Switch like they never did us any wrong.
Cool! Looking forward to leveling up Ravio. Here is hoping the sales will prompt KT to make a sequel on Switch.
Still bummed that Vaati didn't get any love from this game, but as everyone's saying, maybe a Switch version will rectify that oversight.
Was thinking of getting the DLC for this game as a new playthrough of the game has peeked my interest for the last few months and might as well.
There will still be one open character slot on both versions so maybe Breath of the Wild Link will appear later? I doubt it's over yet!!!
I probably won't download it, but have to say those are nice additions (ravio and yuga).
@ThomasBW84
I mean, opting for a mere palette swap instead of an early bird cameo wouldn't be wise.
I LOVE Hyrule Warriors on my Wii U, but I've really hesitated to buy it on 3DS at first because I figured I already had all the content then as I started seeing that some content wouldn't make it to Wii U I still hesitated because I was worried that it wouldn't run near as well and it would bother me. I have a New 3DS can anyone confirm to me that it runs close enough to as good on New 3DS? I'd like to be able to play all this new content that has come out on the Legends version.
Oh my this game just won't stop! Back to play it!
I have an issue...
I bought the mega DLC pack - WiiU and 3DS version...
When do all the DLC characters and maps pop up?
Granted, I'm not that far into the game, but I thought that they'd all be unlocked right from the start/release.
@YoshiAngemon I hope you are right. After suddenly remembering Nabooru I realized that the rest of the Gerudo have not been shown in a game since Majoras Mask. Why have only Ganon but not show Gerudo women? There could have been good story lines for the games they were not in. I would like to know why Nintendo has sidelined them? They were all warriors. I don't work there so I know that they do not care.
And still no Groose. Lame.
The only reason I haven't really wanted either version is because there are 2 separate versions with separate DLC content. I really hope there will be a definitive version for the switch where everything is on one.
Ravio and Yuga but no Hilda? Come on now.
@ekreig Twilight Midna is her own character, so I'm not quick to judge.
@ziffy Hey, with Koei-Tecmo listed as one of the third-party publishers supporting the Nintendo Switch, it kinda makes sense that there will be a Hyrule Warriors Update for it. It was thanks to the brand that it sold millions.
Just looked up the DLC since I thought we were due an update, and this completly passed me by apparently.
Looking forward to it, Yuga looks more sinister in this style. Also, O Rainbow Princess looks pretty good too.
Oh this looks like it's gonna get even more fun
Is there a site that has pictures of all the alternate costumes, because at this rate I won't even get to this newest adventure map until we're waiting for news about the Switch's successor.
I like Radio, he's so cool. I'd get it if you could get the adventure maps on Wii U.
@YoshiAngemon There are a 'million' warriors games so I would bet on there being another game.
Midna and Agatha's costumes look really good.
I can't believe how much content this game has, I still have so many adventure maps to finish and I have a crazy amount of hours into it already.
What's next? Uncle Rupee from Freshly Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland?
