Endless Challenge Mode Coming to Hyrule Warriors - September 12, 2014

If you head over to Nintendo right now chances are you’ll catch some of the huge Nintendo Treehouse live-stream that is happening today. The stream is focusing on upcoming games and most notably Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Hyrule Warriors. It’s been unveiled throughout the stream that Hyrule Warriors will be gaining a new mode in the name of Challenge Mode.

The new mode has been described as “adventure mode on steroids” and will include endless levels consisting of goals. The idea is to complete as many of these challenges as possible and the good news is there isn’t a fail state for the mode either.

Also mentioned from earlier today, Hyrule Warriors would be getting the dreaded day one DLC. But sadly, after the reveal of the new mode, it was referred as a patch instead. Our bets are on the free side of things here. The patch will add a number of different things as well as the Challenge Mode, adding more flexibility on the music choice as well as the availability of new weapons.

Hyrule Warriors is set to launch exclusively on Wii U on September 19 in Europe, Australia on September 20, and North America September 26.
