While it was a great horse replacement and way to get around there, here it allows Zelda to quite literally hit and run all enemies who step out into traffic. The second weapon is Zelda’s Master Cycle, which first made its appearance in the DLC for Breath of the Wild.

Not only can standard weapons like swords and boomerangs be stolen, but so can elemental rods in order to wreak extreme havoc across Hyrule when enemies stand in Link’s path. This leads to all sorts of great variety and fun styles to try out in combat with endless possibilities. This is a long-ranged weapon by itself, but the wonderfully-unique gimmick is that it can copy an enemy weapon which in turn gives it a temporary new moveset. The first new weapon likely to be unlocked is Link’s flail weapon, which is a unique and enjoyable time. This new unlock tree also gives other bonuses such as increased strength for skills and cheaper shops, which is especially nice for those who may not have completed everything up to this point. This is the way to unlock all the new content so players will need to work their way through it to get everything. This includes the brand new challenging quests that ramp up boss enemy difficulty in order to obtain valuable rewards for unlocks. This in turn opens up a large upgrade tree that requires various items both old and new, with the newest items being obtainable from certain quest objectives like defeating tough enemies or collecting rare items. Once starting up the DLC the big focal point will be that Purah and Robbie have opened up a lab and need help investigating further.

It’s purely focused on new weapons, a character and tons of new challenges for players to take on who may have been looking for more. Right off the bat it should be noted the first part of this expansion doesn’t include any new story content. Age of Calamity is already packed with tons of content, so let’s take a look at what the first part of the DLC has to offer and if it’s worth picking up.

While the next part of DLC is still a good few months off, we’ve gotten the first part and the rather decent amount of new goods it has to offer. This comes as little surprise since the previous Hyrule Warriors also saw multiple DLC expansions that built upon the base game. A few months after the release of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity it was unveiled that the series sequel would be getting a couple sets of paid DLC.
