While fans are expecting The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to launch this March, Nintendo has announced the game’s future DLC plans in the form of an Expansion Pass.

With this Expansion Pass, which is basically the same as a Season Pass, players will gain access to 3 new treasure chests, new challenges, a new original story and more. You can see the full least of planned DLC in the image at the end of this post.

Breath of the Wild producer, Eiji Aonuma, explains that Nintendo has went to great lengths to make this incarnation of Hyrule huge. Because of the size of the map, and even though there is plenty to do in the game already, the company has decided to add more content post-launch, so players will still find new things to do and see in the game.

This is the first time a main game in The Legend of Zelda series will have DLC, and if you go check out the amount of dislikes the video above has on YouTube, you can see fans aren’t talking the news very well.

The Expansion Pass, which costs $19.99, will contain two DLC packs, one to be released in the summer, and one in during the holidays. It will be available for purchase right as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild comes out, on March 3.
