Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an awesome game. While it wasn’t what everyone wanted, it did take the Zelda series in much-needed new directions. It’s, therefore, excellent news that details of the new DLC ‘The Champions’ Ballad’ have been leaked.
Zelda: Breath of the Wild – The Champions’ Ballad
What do we know so far? Well, you’re still Link, but you are going to apparently see a lot more of Zelda in this DLC. Given how little she appeared in Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you would be forgiven to have forgotten that your mission was to save her. Oh, and the world as well I guess. I don’t know, I was far too busy Shrine Hunting.
We did get a peek into what would expect from this at E3 a little while ago, but it seems Nintendo is keen to tease a little bit more.

Building on the Master Trials DLC this one promises to provide a lot more story and a new Dungeon to the game reports NextPowerUp.
The Master Trials DLC
Some were a little let down by this DLC. They felt it was more of DLC built out of unused features rather than a stand alone expansion. It should be noted that most fans of Zelda: Breath of the Wild appreciate that this new DLC will contain a lot more substance than the previous.
The real mystery we have at the moment is when this is going to be released. Nintendo has given a rather cryptic date of ‘Holidays 2017’. I’m personally going on Holiday next week, so maybe then. I doubt that Nintendo runs it’s scheduling off me. It would, however, be sod’s law for a cracking DLC to be released just when I can’t use it.
The add-on is included within the £18 season pass and compared to others *cough* Battlefield 1 Premium *cough*, this one does seem to provide an excellent bit of value.
