Update: Bumped to the top. Nintendo has now confirmed the same date for Europe, so the DLC should be out at the same time worldwide.

Koei Tecmo have just released a trailer for the first DLC pack for Hyrule Warriors Legends. The trailer shows off Medli, the new Adventure Mode map, which is the “Master Quest” version of the Great Sea map found in the base game, and several new outfits for both characters and My Fairy. In Japan, the DLC pack is being released next week, on May 19th. A Western release date has not yet been confirmed, though a release on the same date seems likely. We will keep you updated.

Limited Run Game has been receiving a bunch of attention as of late. The company has been giving digital titles a retail release that never made it out physically in small runs. However, their efforts have mainly been limited to PlayStation platforms thus far.

Some interesting news did surface on Limited Run Games’ Twitter account recently that could very well appeal to some Nintendo fans. In an interaction with a gamer on Twitter, it was mentioned that they are “trying to work towards a Fatal Frame 5 release” – Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water, in other words.

The tweet is as follows:

Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water did get a physical version in Europe, but North American players weren’t offered the same opportunity. If Limited Run Games does somehow manage to work with Nintendo on this, that’d be a huge win for the company as well as for fans of the series.

During a panel at WonderCon last night, Marin was revealed as a new DLC character for the Link’s Awakening Pack in both Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors Legends. A slightly different look at the art was snapped at the event, which may reveal her primary weapon.

An image that looks a whole lot like the Sea Lily’s Bell is included in Marin’s original WonderCon artwork. Why was it removed in the image Nintendo posted on its Twitter account? I have no idea. But in any case, I can’t see what that can be other than the Sea Lily’s Bell. And given the inclusion in the art, that could very well be Marin’s primary weapon.

For those that are curious, in Link’s Awakening, the Sea Lily’s Bell is one of eight instruments you find that are collectively known as the Eight Instruments of the Sirens. These are needed to awaken the Wind Fish.
