good dlc that expanded on the lacking story of botw

The DLC as a whole is forgettable but the bike carries so hard that thing is so useful trying to get all the damn korok seeds

Honestly improves the story ten-fold.
A must-own if you have BOTW, but only play it once you've beaten the game.

this DLC is weird because it has some of the best content in the game with its shrines, divine beast, and boss, but getting to that content is a bit tedious and involves doing some frustrating activities. also part of what makes botw feel so good is that everything is optional and you engage with stuff on your own pace, but to do the DLC, you kinda have to focus on just that content, which goes against the core gameplay loop of botw.

This was a perfect DLC. It had a bunch of difficult but cool challenges like the one hit obliterator and the 5th divine beast and rewards you with a bike that’s perfect for post game exploration


Took me a while to finally come back to this game to play its DLC, but it was fun!

The motor bike is just so cool

Solid DLC. Adds a lot to the lore.

Mais horas de um jogo que já é enorme, tudo pra no fim eu usar a moto por três minutos

Same rating as the main game, because it's just more of the great base game, at the exact same quality!

Adds a lot of extra story to an already phenomenal game, but by the time you'd get to it in a launch-day playthrough, the rewards aren't nearly as sweet.

5 estrelas pela foto no final, chorei real

Amazing DLC that gives you a reward that by the time you get it is completely useless, but the Obliterator and Monk fight was super cool

This score is only because of the bike

Good DLC that expands the characters a bit more and has probably the best "dungeon" in the game. Gotta love the Master Cycle.

I love the champions and the upgraded abilities, but i need more content

i like the extra champion's lore even though idk if it really amounts to much all things considered. the additional boss fights aren't anything special (except fuck waterblight), but that final boss fight was very unfun. would not want to do that ever again.
revali you are so misunderstood by botw fans

I really didn't like this DLC. I thought the first part was ridiculously unfair. Some of the shrines were unnecessarily difficult and I hated the one-hit part. The second part of it was then unnecessarily tedious and not fun. I loved the ending dungeon and thought it was probably the best in the entire game. However, I also disliked the final boss of the DLC. The dungeon really helped this content feel worthwhile.

Great game, not a great Zelda game. Dungeons felt too easy and there weren't many. The story felt empty and I missed being able to add items to my arsenal as I went. Also why can't the master sword just not run out of energy??

Started off really strong, ended kind of weak, and the bike was useless to me as I had already done almost all the exploring already. The game really needed something not Shrine related but thats like 2/5ths of the content on offer here.

Difícil pra uma MERDA pra no final te dar uma moto. Péssima recompensa. Pelo menos as quests e a nova dungeon é legal.

Eccellente dlc. Lungo, ma non stanca mai.

This was....fine, better than the Master Trials stuff but still not great personally.
The only draw of the DLC was getting the MasterCycle but by the time you get it it feels like a pretty worthless reward.

I wish it lasted longer, my only complain. And there were more extra missions to use the reward for finishing the new Boss in it.


The Champions' Ballad's biggest accomplishment is what the base game struggled with the most - the story. It's nice to have context about the Champions and their relationships with Link. Outside of the story, The Champions' Ballad struggles with rehashed content (shrines, divine beasts) which isn't something I was hoping to see from a DLC for a very long game. The post game content, puzzles, and bosses however thrive as a result of being DLC, and I believe they provide some of the highest highs in the "Wild" duo-logy.

Astonished they managed to make that divine cycle reward feel worth it after so much time already spent in this game. Thanks Monolith Soft.

I loved this DLC it fucking destroys the game but that’s what makes it so cool. Master Cycle funny and I legitimately played the game longer because of it

Very fun dlc that added a significant amount of playtime to the game. I wish aspects of the story were further expanded on, but the gameplay itself was a lot of fun. and the bike was a really cool bonus.
