  • The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – The Master Trials DLC revealed!


    02/05/2017

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – The Master Trials DLC revealed!

    Ready for more adventures in the vast kingdom of Hyrule? The Master Trials is the first of two DLC packs for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Nintendo Switch and Wii U, that will add new challenges, useful items and features, and more!

    By purchasing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Expansion Pass from Nintendo eShop, you can access The Master Trials as soon as it becomes available this summer, as well as the second DLC pack arriving in winter 2017*.

    Here’s what awaits you in 'The Master Trials':

    Awaken true power in the Trial of the Sword**

    By heading to a certain location in Hyrule, you can undertake the Trial of the Sword. In this challenge, you’ll start without any armour or weapons and must defeat all the enemies in each room to proceed. By clearing all of the trials, you can awaken the power of the Master Sword, and it will always be in its glowing powered-up state while usable.

    Retrace your steps with Hero’s Path Mode

    Think you’ve covered every inch of Hyrule? Hero’s Path Mode will track every step you’ve taken over the last 200 hours of your adventure. You can even use the time tracking bar on the map to reveal interesting tidbits about your adventuring habits. It’s a handy tool for those who want to retrace their journey or see what areas of the map they’ve yet to explore.

    Rise to the challenge in Hard Mode

    Want to really test your mettle? In Hard Mode, you’ll encounter tougher foes from the outset of your adventure – you won’t find any Red Bokoblins in this quest! You might even see new ranks of enemies that you’ve never seen before. You’ll need to rethink your strategies too – foes will be better at detecting your approach and they’ll slowly recover health in battle. While exploring in Hard Mode, be on the lookout for planks floating in the sky. Tougher foes and useful treasures await those willing to tackle these airborne challenges!

    Create your own travel point with the Travel Medallion

    Need to fast travel to a certain spot in a jiffy? After seeking out the Travel Medallion, hidden somewhere in Hyrule, you can create a temporary travel point anywhere that you can stand on the map. This nifty tool can only create one travel point at a time, though.

    Recall your favourite characters with new equipment

    After downloading The Master Trials, eight new Treasure Chests containing new outfits inspired by The Legend of Zelda series will appear somewhere in Hyrule. We can’t tell you where to find them, but you can take a look at some of these outfits below:

    Uncover secrets with the Korok Mask

    Koroks are hiding everywhere in the land of Hyrule (900 to be exact!), and you’ll have an easier time seeking them out once you get your hands on the Korok Mask! Equip the Korok Mask and it’ll shake to let you know when there’s a crafty Korok nearby.
