The duo utilize technology based on Ancient technology, which includes a barrier and aerial units to shock foes. Interestingly enough, there’s another playable character that fans can receive but their identity is unknown. The DLC also includes story content like the Battle for Kakariko Village, the Battle of Goponga Village, and more.

New stages like the Coliseum and Lanaryu Road have also been added, providing a peek at their appearances from a century past. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity’s Expansion Pass retails for $19.99 and also includes the previously released Pulse of the Ancients. For more details on the base game, check out our review here.

In terms of new weapons, Link can wield a flail which provides some decent range while Zelda gets the Master Cycle (which doesn’t feel like the most equal of trades). More challenging enemies have also been added to the mix like higher ranking Wizzrobes, a Giant Chuchu and more. You can also expect a new difficulty level called Apocalyptic to provide some new challenges.

The second wave of DLC, Guardian of Remembrance, is out in November 2021. Other Zelda announcements include The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD on July 16th and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 releasing in 2022. Stay tuned for other announcements in the meantime.
