Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity - Wave 1 DLC: Pulse of the Ancients

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity has been out since last November, so some may have forgotten that the game still has DLC planned. Nintendo and Koei Tecmo shared the latest news during today’s Nintendo Direct.

The first wave of DLC, Pulse of the Ancients, launches on June 18.

To recap, here’s what each DLC drop includes:

The Fatal Frame series is finally back, albeit with a previous entry. Revealed during today’s Nintendo Direct, Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water is coming to Switch.

Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water launches later in 2021. View a trailer below.

As fans continue to wait for Metroid Prime 4, Nintendo is expanding the series in other ways. Announced during today’s Nintendo Direct, a new 2D entry is in the works for Switch.

Metroid Dread is coming to Switch, Nintendo has announced. It will launch on October 8.

E3 2021 is almost over, but before the event ends, we have another major presentation to go. Nintendo will air a new Nintendo Direct today at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET / 5 PM in the UK / 6 PM in Europe.

You can watch the broadcast as it happens below – we have streams for North America, Europe, and Japan (note that Nintendo Treehouse: Live will follow immediately after). Amit will also be keeping this post updated with a live blog as the Nintendo Direct happens. As major news breaks, we’ll have it all right here on the site.

The Wonderful 101: Remastered players can access new DLC starting today. As part of the game’s original Kickstarter campaign, one of the stretch goals was for a Time Attack mode. Switch players can get their hands on the DLC today, June 15.

Here’s an official overview:

E3 2021

The fourth and final day of E3 2021 will be starting soon. Look for the live stream to begin at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET / 4 PM in the UK / 5 PM in Europe. Nintendo is the highlight today (and we’ll be putting up a separate live stream / blog for that), but the E3 awards will also be featured in the hours to come.

Here’s where you can watch today’s E3 stream:

Nintendo Directs are always big events, and many enjoy co-streaming. For those that are unaware, this involves having the broadcast running live on an outlet like YouTube while showing reactions in real time.

Co-streaming hasn’t been an issue with Nintendo Directs previously, but at least for today’s presentation, fans could run into issues. The company has advised fans against “mirroring Nintendo Direct footage and sound” while the stream is happening. Videos with reactions are fine, but anything containing audio and visuals can only be posted once the broadcast is finished, assuming they fall in line with the Big N’s previous guidelines.

Of course, this news only applies to Japan. Nintendo has not made any statements for other regions at this time.

Strange Brigade

Rebellion has put quite a few games on Switch over the past few years, and it looks like that support is continuing. Although we don’t have an official announcement just yet, update data for Strange Brigade has now appeared on Nintendo’s servers. This title had not been announced for the platform previously.

As many are aware, Nintendo will air a new Nintendo Direct tomorrow. It’s possible that we’ll hear about Strange Brigade on Switch in an official capacity then.

Here’s an overview of Strange Brigade, along with a trailer:
