Unused text and placeholders indicate DLC is planned for Zelda: Tri Force Heroes
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 13 Comments
Nintendo may have DLC planned for The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes. Unused text – spotted by The Cutting Room Floor – suggests that Drablands could be adding at least one new area. Also found are five blank entries in the costume name file labelled sys_costume_dlc_02 to sys_costume_dlc_06.
Regarding the unused lines, they all come from The Great Tripini NPC. He mentions having to pay in order to access new areas in some of his dialogue.
