Eiji Aonuma, producer of the Legend of Zelda series has confirmed that there are no plans to add additional content to Tears of the Kingdom. This information comes to us from an interview with Famitsu, translation below.
Quote From Translated Interview I see. Now then, I'd like to hear about your next work… I think there are various possibilities, whether it's a further sequel or a new stage.
Fujibayashi I don't know if it will be the next work, but I'm thinking about what the "next fun experience" will be. I can only say that I do not know at the moment what form it will take.
Aonuma : There are no plans to release additional content this time, but that's because I feel like I've done everything I can to create games in that world. In the first place, the reason why we chose this time as a sequel to the previous game is because we thought there would be value in experiencing a new kind of play in that place in Hyrule. Then, if such a reason is newly born, it may return to the same world again. Whether it's a sequel or a new work, I think it will be a completely new way to play, so I'd be happy if you could look forward to it.
How do you feel about no DLC being planned for the potential Game of the Year?
Comments
I still have so much adoration for the NES Gold Cartridge that I don't care what happens as long as they make more.
Hopecto be 85yo and excited about a new release.
Completely agreed!
I'd prefer no DLC purely because I know they weren't holding anything back, which is something I feel happens in most games now, and I can get that full game experience by simply plugging in a cartridge.
If Ocarina of Time had DLC, there'd be carts out there that never got updated (and in some ways that is true with the various versions of OOT that exist with certain bugs fixed or music removed) so it would be a gamble if you were going to get the "full game" effect.
Do not feel bad with that. I got way more quality gaming in those hours than in most games and I am really greatfull for the product we got.
Was waiting for a possible dlc / master mode to replay it but will do it anyways in the future
That's fine with me: as much as I love the franchise, I've got too much I want to play as it is to turn around and play more Zelda.
