'Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate' March DLC: 'Zelda' items featured

Capcom Official Blog

Capcom announced the free March DLC for its "Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate" title, and this freebie is now live for players in Europe and North America. This month's free DLC pack adds an amazingly massive new content to the game, and there are some splendid items, particularly "The Legend of Zelda's" Link armor and weapons. 

The new content pack contains 14 new quests, 11 new weapons, four complete armor sets besides the Blademaster and Gunner sets, three Fan Club piece sets, two Palico armor and one weapon set with Bonus Calico Red set, two guild card backgrounds; one Guild Card pose, nine Guild Card titles, and 1,000 Caravan Points. 

What sets apart this free content pack is the "Zelda" in-game free content. In the game, players can now embark on quests and craft the items needed to dress up as Link from "The Legend of Zelda," complete with his Master sword, Hylian shield, and Hero's Bow. 

To craft the "Zelda" items, players must first complete the Three Virtues and Fire Fight missions in the game's event quests by talking to the High Questatrix at the counter of Val Habar Gathering Hall. 

For the first mission, gamers must hunt a Kirin, Zinogre, and Rajang in the arena and get the triforce item needed to craft Link's outfit from the "Zelda" game. After, the second mission details that players must slay an Akantor and get the Goddess's Fire, the item needed to craft either Link's Master Sword or the Hero's Bow. 

The DLC packs are part of Capcom's free DLC for every first Friday of the next several months, and other expected free items still to come are armors and weapons based on "Metroid," "Animal Crossing," "Street Fighter," and other Capcom titles. The next free DLC is expected to arrive April 3.
