Nintendo fans in Japan will soon be able to pick up new physical versions of both The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Splatoon 2 that include their respective DLC, it’s been announced.

Nintendo shared the news yesterday during all the Direct commotion (the Japanese broadcasts of Directs often contain the odd difference to the western versions) and have summarised the announcement on social media. Both of the new releases will launch on 8th October.

No such products have been announced for the west just yet, meaning you’ll have to pick up Breath of the Wild’s Expansion Pass and Splatoon 2’s Octo Expansion separately if you want to enjoy the additional content. Of course, we’ll make sure to keep an eye out for any developments on a western release should such a thing exist in the future.

Would you buy these physical editions if they made it over to the west? Do you already own the base games and/or the expansions anyway? Let us know in the usual place.
