Hyrule Warriors: Next DLC Features Twili Midna as New Character

The first major DLC pack for Hyrule Warriors released last month, introducing Link's trusty mount Epona as a "weapon" along with a new Adventure map and a few Legends mode scenarios. On November 27, the second pack will arrive in North America, bringing along a new form of everyone's favorite imp.

At the end of Twilight Princess, Midna returned to her original humanoid shape. Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma was disappointed that players would only get to see this form for a brief period, so it's with great excitement that he announced on Miiverse that the Twilight Princess Pack will introduce Twili Midna as a playable character. Yet to be revealed are new weapons, costumes, and an Adventure map. One of the costumes, Aonuma teased, will dress Link up as a certain special Zelda series character. My money's on a Tingle suit!

In other DLC news, Nintendo customer service has reconfirmed that the retailer-exclusive costumes that dressed up Link and Zelda as their Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword incarnations will become available for purchase later down the road. No dates or pricing are being shared at this time, however.

The Twilight Princess Pack will arrive November 27 for $7.99. You can also buy a bundle that includes all four announced packs for $19.99.
