Earlier in the week, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime said that the next Zelda: Breath of the Wild DLC pack is still on track for this year. We also heard that a release date would be shared soon.

If that wasn’t enough, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma has also reconfirmed that the DLC will be out by the end of 2017. A random video posted on Nintendo Australia’s YouTube channel today has Aonuma saying that the team is “working on it with great effort” and to “please hold on just a little longer”. He also says explicitly that the DLC “will also be available by the end of this year”.
