ZeldaFreak | 3,730 Events Team · Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 I informed Makar of this via PM since he showed some interest in the game when I mentioned it to him awhile back, and he brought up a good point that I should probably bring it up elsewhere on the site for anyone who's interested. So here we are It was just recently announced that Cadence of Hyrule is getting 3 DLC packs. 1 with new playable characters, 1 with a bunch of new songs and remixes, and another with brand new story content. In addition, Cadence of Hyrule will be getting a physical release which will include the game itself as well as all of the DLC bundled together. It'll be available on October 23rd for $40. If you haven't tried the game out yet, now seems like it would be a very good time, if it being a digital-only title put you off a bit from buying it.  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makar | 2,062 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Thanks again for informing me about this one! That's one more title I won't get digitally now. Now I really need to figure out what to buy on the eShop with the eShop money I'm wracking up. There's a free demo of this game on the eShop btw in case anyone is wondering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 12,240 Administrator · Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Great game, even though I suck at rhythm games. Will have to nab a copy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm usually not great at them either, but I had an absolute blast with this one, it was really fun. I think part of what makes it so enjoyable is that the rhythm part of the game isn't the only gameplay element, there's a lot more going on at the same time, which makes it more fun for people like you and I who aren't usually the greatest at rhythm games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 5,196 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Yeah, I saw this today actually 2 minutes after the video posted. I was there looking for a Super Mario All-Stars 2 update since Paper Mario dropped. Oh well, I guess I have to keep waiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickman | 4,199 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Thanks for the info. With the DLC this seems like a more affordable purchase for me. I heard the base game was very short so I passed on it on launch because it was expensive on the eshop here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it was definitely a bit short, but the extra content should beef it up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link | 2,878 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 I’ve been on the fence about it. I guess it’s somewhat akin to the combos in Wind Waker? and those were fun. It looks neat. At $60 I would be pretty hesitant but $40 seems right for this on cart. I can’t try the trial because I don’t have a Switch... hoping they bring production back sooner than later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch_8ngel | 1,597 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Haven't played this version of it, but the original Crypt of the Necrodancer is a really cool spin on turn-based rogue-likes, by having the rhythm/beat mechanic "force" the turn taking. Makes for some really cool battle mechanics, and allows for a bunch of alternate characters with their own special mechanics that completely shake things up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely super fun, and I think even if you aren't a fan of rhythm games, if you're a fan of Zelda games in general you'd probably still enjoy it. Plus the soundtrack is absolutely amazing And that's a shame you don't have a Switch yet. Hope you can get your hands on one soon.

Adorabear | 69 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Awesome news! I never played  this or Crypt of the Necromancer before, but it seems interesting enough to me. Looking forward to trying it out when I buy that nice physical release in October! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
