The final round of Hyrule Warriors Legends DLC is now set to release next week on October 31. It will include two characters: Ravio, wielding a hammer, and Yuga, wielding a paintbrush. They will be available for both the Wii U and 3DS versions. The 3DS version will also include a new Adventure Map, which will have Ravio assisting the player, and 15 new costumes for My Fairy. The Adventure Map will also unlock more powerful weapons for the new characters and pre-existing characters, as well as new costumes.
The site also describes Ravio and Yuga’s fighting styles. Ravio will use a variety of weapons from his shop, including bombs, the boomerang, and the ice rod. Yuga will manipulate lightning and pictures.
The 3DS version will cost $6.99, the Wii U will cost $4.99, or you can buy both for $9.99. If you have the Season Pass, you will not need to pay anything more.
Check out some screenshots below:
Update: The full information is live on the website. Read up on details here.
The Hyrule Warriors’ Twitter has unveiled Ravio, who will be joining the games’ cast in the Link Between Worlds pack on October 31. The pack will include another character (who was previously leaked) and a new Adventure Map for Hyrule Warriors Legends on 3DS, but those have yet to be revealed.

A new episode of Japanese show Game Center DX shows off The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It’s a rather lengthy look too, clocking at 40 minutes (although not all of that time is gameplay). The show’s members even chat with Eiji Aonuma near the end. Note that the footage is still the Wii U version, though. Check it out below:
The “Rare Revealed” video series continues, this time focusing on Jet Force Gemini. Below you’ll hear the studio share more about the classic N64 title with insider facts.
This week certainly turned out to be much more interesting in the world of Nintendo than most would have expected. It took Nintendo about 1.5 years, but we finally got a first look at the company’s brand new system on Thursday.
The way in which Nintendo decided to unveil Switch was certainly interesting. It was a more-focused approach for sure. Many people expected that Nintendo would come out in full-force with details, but instead we received a brief three-minute trailer. Still, in that time, you’ll find a lot packed in.
First, “NX” is now a thing of the past. We have an official, final name: Switch. The “Wii” brand is completely gone, and shows that Nintendo is ready to move on. Many rumors were also proven true: notably the hybrid theory, use of cartridges, and detachable controllers. Plus, it’s still on track for a March 2017 launch!
Another important aspect to point out is the amount of partners on board. The expected and previous-known partners such as Square Enix, Capcom, and Ubisoft are pledging support, but there are a few big surprises as well like Bethesda and FromSoftware. Heck, even EA seems to be giving things a shot as well. The Wii U had its fair share of third-party support when the console was first announced, but the number is certainly higher this time around, and more varied as well.
Even though there’s still plenty to learn about Switch, this is a good start. We apparently won’t be hearing much about it for the rest of the year, though Nintendo will likely hold an event in January for a proper blowout.
With that introduction out of the way, we want to hear from all of you about Switch. What are your initial impressions? Are you pleased with what Nintendo has shown so far, or are you disappointed. If you have any comments at all, share them with us below!
Highlights from last week’s topic: What are you playing? – October 2016
Whatever you want to call it – an anniversary, a birthday, or anything else – Nintendo Everything has been around for nine years! We fully set up shop on October 22, 2007… and haven’t looked back since. We’ve gone through a couple of designs and a more focused approach to how we deliver the news, but on the whole, not too much has changed since then.
I don’t often get a chance to do this, but I really want to take a moment to thank each and every person who stops by Nintendo Everything. Whether you’re a one-time visitor or a regular news tipper, know that you’re extremely appreciated. It goes without saying that Nintendo Everything wouldn’t be what it is without you all. As corny as it sounds, it absolutely holds true.
I also have to give a massive thanks to all of the different contributors who have helped out on the site – both past and present. Matt and Jake have been brilliant with the night shift, and we recently brought in Zack, who is sparing me a few hours here and there and has been great as well. Dennis, Vincent, Phil, Jakob, and Patrick have also been on point with their reviews.
It’s an exciting time ahead. Nintendo just revealed Switch a couple of days ago, and the company’s future looks bright. I’m really looking forward to the years ahead and reporting/talking about it all here on the site.
So, that’s that. Another year in the books. One more year to go until we’re in double digits!
(By the way, we’re probably going to need to update our logo sometime soon with Switch on the way. I’ll try and see what I can do about that, but I’m no graphic artist!)
