DLC Packs, Season Pass Announced

Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer featuring The Legend of Zelda will get three paid DLC packs, the first of which is out today. Announced in today's Nintendo Direct Mini, the Zelda themed rhythm-adventure will be getting three packs:  

• Character Pack ($5.99) - Out today, this pack adds Impa, Aria, Shadow Link, Shadow Zelda and Frederick to the game, each with new abilities and weapons.
• Melody Pack ($5.99) - This pack adds 39 songs to the game, including remixed versions of the game's background music (by Family Jules, Chipzel, and A_Rival). Music can be changed at any time.
• Symphony of the Mask ($9.99) - This pack adds new story content in which you play as Majora's Mask's Skull Kid, adding a new map and new songs along the way. Skull Kid will change abilities depending on which mask he wears.

A season pass is also now available for $14.99, and adds bonus costumes for Link and Zelda. A complete edition of the game, featuring all the DLC, will launch on October 23 for $39.99. We awarded Cadence of Hyrule an 8.8 review, saying it "absolutely deserves to stand in the Zelda canon alongside the best of its 2D games."
