Following on from the retailer exclusive costume DLC of Hyrule Warriors in North America, it is now apparent that specific stores in the UK will also have rights to the add-on content for the game for a limited time.
Releasing on 19th September across Europe, the downloadable costumes for Link and Zelda are based on their Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword designs, and will only be available by pre-ordering from select retailers. However, Nintendo has confirmed that the DLC outfits will eventually be available to purchase from the Nintendo eShop in the future.
Each set will be available at the following stores:
Ocarina of Time costumes - Nintendo UK online store
Twilight Princess costumes - GAME UK
Skyward Sword costumes - Amazon UK
Nintendo UK is also running a Club Nintendo promotion for customers to obtain the Demon King Costume Set for Ganondorf - two additional costumes based on his Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess designs. The details for obtaining them are as follows:
