Yesterday, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma took to Miiverse and shared another message about the upcoming Hyrule Warriors DLC for Europe. It’s largely similar to the North American message shared a few days ago, but we do have another screenshot of Epona in action.

Check it out below:


The North American Hyrule Warriors Limited Edition was truly limited. Prior to the store’s opening, 600 fans showed up at Nintendo World in New York earlier today in hopes of grabbing a copy, but many left empty handed.

Reports indicate that there were between 300 and 500 units available. It seems that if you weren’t on line by 4 AM or so, you wouldn’t have an opportunity to obtain a wristband entitling yourself to a copy. All stock was distributed within Nintendo World’s first opening hour today.

The situation was much different in Europe and Japan. Both territories received limited edition releases of Hyrule Warriors that were distributed in larger quantities and at several retailers.

Some fans who were able to grab a copy of the Hyrule Warriors Limited Edition from Nintendo World are now turning to eBay in hopes of turning a profit. There are already a few listings seeking over $250.

In celebration of Hyrule Warriors’ North American launch, producer Yosuke Hayashi shared a message over on Miiverse.

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma has revealed one of the items included in Hyrule Warriors Master Quest Pack. Those who purchase the DLC will be provided with access to Epona, who will be featured as a weapon.

Along with Epona, the Master Quest Pack is comprised of a new scenario, Adventure map, and a pair of costumes.

Aonuma wrote on Miiverse:


REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–It’s time to fight alongside more than a dozen recognizable characters from The Legend of Zelda series to save Hyrule from a menacing new force. It’s time to dive into a crossover unlike anything Nintendo has ever done before, combining the vast universe of The Legend of Zelda franchise with the breathless fast-paced action perfected by the Dynasty Warriors games. On Sept. 26, it’s time for Hyrule Warriors.

Launching exclusively for the Wii U console, Hyrule Warriors lets players unleash the full power of iconic characters like Link, Zelda and Ganondorf, as they cut down legions of enemies on massive battlefields in familiar settings from The Legend of Zelda series like Hyrule Field, Death Mountain and Skyloft, as well as new locations created specifically for the game. The frenetic action of the Dynasty Warriors franchise blends beautifully with The Legend of Zelda series to create a unique hybrid that feels as seamless as it does bold.
