PlatinumGames has released a new DLC for The Wonderful 101: Remastered. Titled The Wonderful One: After School Hero – Part 1, it is the first of a planned 2-parter DLC. Check out the trailer for The Wonderful One: After School Hero – Part 1 below.

The trailer indicates that the DLC will feature the same geenral tone and comic-based sensibilities of The Wonderful 101: Remastered. Gameplay, however, is getting a major change from the base game. Rather than being an action game with an isometric camera angle, The Wonderful One: After School Hero – Part 1 seems to be taking quite a bit of inspiration from Capcom’s Mega Man franchise.

The Wonderful One: After School Hero – Part 1 will be a level-based side-scrolling action platformer, complete with the ability to change characters and use different abilities to take on levels and boss fights. The DLC’s story focuses on the story of Luka’s journey to becoming a hero.

The Wonderful One: After School Hero – Part 1 was developed and released as part of one of the stretch goals for The Wonderful 101: Remastered back when the multiplatform release was just a Kickstarter campaign trying to raise money to port the game out of the Wii U and on to modern platforms.
