The second major DLC expansion for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is now available.
Guardian of Remembrance is the second of two DLC packs included in the game’s Expansion Pass, the first of which was Pulse of the Ancients (which released in June).
The Guardian of Remembrance expansion includes new story arcs, two of which are named Battle for Kakariko Village and Battle of Goponga Village.
It also includes new stages, such as the Coliseum fromThe Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild(before it was a ruin).
New characters will also be added – these include Purah, the director of the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab in Breath of the Wild, and her ‘subordinate’ Robbie. One other character will be included.
Before players can download and install the Guardian of Remembrance DLC, they have to first upgrade the game to version 1.3.0.
