With the new version of Hyrule Warriors on 3DS, fans can expect some new content. We know that Nintendo and Koei Tecmo are introducing new characters, but there seems to be other additions as well.

Case and point: an interesting crossbow spotted in the 3DS debut trailer of Hyrule Warriors. What’s particularly interesting here is that the weapon appears to be very similar to what was shown in concept art for a female Link. This character, “Linkle”, never made it into the final version of Hyrule Warriors.

Is this indeed Linkle’s crossbow that we’re looking at? Could the character herself be included in Hyrule Warriors on 3DS?

Hyrule Warriors is making its way to 3DS as “Hyrule Warriors: All-Stars”, it’s been revealed.

The base game seems to be very similar to the original on Wii U. However, there will be at least two new characters, including Tetra and King of Red Lions.

Characters from the new 3DS version can be transferred over to the original Wii U game.

Watch the debut trailer for Hyrule Warriors on 3DS below.

Hyrule Warriors’ Boss Pack has finally arrived in North America. This is the final piece of downloadable content for the title. It’s free to those who purchased all of the DLC as the bundle, and it regularly costs $2.99.

Sales of the Dynasty Warriors games have been in a bit of a decline. The series isn’t performing quite as well as it used to.

However, according to Koei Tecmo producer Akihiro Suzuki, spin-offs like Hyrule Warriors renewed interest in the franchise. Koei Tecmo must now satisfy players while keeping the series fresh, he said.

Suzuki told MCV:

Over the years we’ve seen a sales decline. The Dynasty Warriors series is targeted towards the core fans. But we’ve had a few collaborations recently that have given the franchise a second wind because they’ve brought in new fans that hadn’t given Dynasty Warriors a chance. So Hyrule Warriors gave the series some freshness. Now our task is to keep the new players happy now that they’ve had a chance to play. But overall with the franchise, we need to keep it fresh, both the Dynasty Warriors and the Samurai Warriors brands.
