Prior to its release, there was speculation that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was set to receive DLC in the future. It made sense at the time since Breath of the Wild got DLC but nothing official has been said about it until now. Unfortunately, it may not be the news some fans were looking for. In an interview with Famitsu, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma revealed that there will be no DLC for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

“We have no plans to release additional content this time, but that is because we feel like we have done all we can do to create play in that world,” Aonuma told Famitsu, according to Twitter user Genki who translated the interview.

Aonuma also teased that dev team behind Tears of the Kingdom are moving forward with a new Zelda game in a new Hyrule. “This time, the reason we decided to make a sequel to the previous game in the first place was because we thought it would be worth experiencing new ways to play in Hyrule. If such reasons arise, then we may return to the same world. Whether it is a sequel or new work, I think it will be a completely new way to play, so I hope you will look forward to it.”

TOTK director Hidemaro Fujibayashi told Famitsu, “We are very grateful that so many customers have been playing Tears of the Kingdom for so long and deeply, so we will do our best to make the next title even more enjoyable,” according to Genki.

Regardless of whether or not Tears of the Kingdom gets DLC, the game was another massive success for Nintendo when the game released earlier this year, completely destroying UK sales records and selling over 10 million units worldwide.
