A few days ago, news started to emerge about the retailer-exclusive pre-order bonuses for Hyrule Warriors. GameStop is offering the Ocarina of Time Costume Pack while Amazon has the Twilight Princess DLC.

We now have confirmation about the final Costume Pack for Hyrule Warriors. Best Buy is selling the Skyward Sword DLC with pre-orders, as confirmed on the retailer’s product page. You can place an order here.

We’ll also mention quickly that the Amazon US page has now been updated with news about the Twilight Princess costumes. It was previously listed on the Canadian website only.
