Cut down entire legions of enemies using over-the-top powerful Dynasty Warriors-style moves as Hyrule Warriors comes to the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. In the portable version, experience new story elements and playable characters from by The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker game such as Tetra, King of Hyrule and more. Additional new features, such as the ability to switch between different characters on the fly, allow you to strategically position characters and defeat foes in all-new ways like never before.

Features:

  • New character switching feature lets you change characters on the fly.

Gameplay

Gameplay mostly remains the same as the console version. The top screen displays the battle, while the bottom screen displays the map and character stats. By tapping the character icons on the bottom screen during battle, players can switch to playing as that character. Two new pickup items have been confirmed for this game: A golden Ocarina that warps players to Owl Statues, and a Hammer weapon. In order for the game to display as many enemies as possible, the stereoscopic 3D feature for standard Nintendo 3DS systems will be disabled; only New Nintendo 3DS systems will have the 3D feature[1].

New content in this version includes additional playable characters, as well as a new set of story missions based on The Wind Waker. This content can be transferred to the original version of the game via a serial code printed on the back of the box[1]. The game will also feature all of the downloadable content included on the Wii U version, though this cannot be transferred. The Challenge Mode in the Wii U version, however, in addition to multiplayer support will not be in this game. amiibo will also be compatible with this game; in addition to the amiibo usable on the Wii U version, scanning the Wolf Link amiibo unlocks special weapons for Midna.
