New and Additional Characters
There have been six new characters added to the roster in Hyrule Warriors Legends, five of which are exclusive to the 3DS title unless you purchase the appropriate add-on in the Wii U counterpart: Toon Link, Tetra, King Daphnes, and Medli from The Wind Waker are all featured in Legends, though Medli won’t be available until the first DLC pack drops in May. From Majora’s Mask, the often requested Skull Kid joins the fight as well. Finally there is Linkle. Linkle is a brand new character to the Legend of Zelda universe, and believes herself to be the legendary hero reborn.
In addition to the new characters, Wii U DLC characters are included as well. Cia, Volga, and Wizzro, which came with the Master Quest Pack, Twili Midna from the Twilight Princess Pack, and Young Link and Tingle from the Majora’s Mask Pack.
All six of these characters are included in the base package of Hyrule Warriors Legends. They must be unlocked by playing the game, of course, but they’re there all the same.
