==Changes and Additions==
 
===Story===
 
Outside of the standard story, the game will feature a new epilogue after the ending of the game. This story will feature new stages and characters from {{TWW}},<ref>{{Cite web|quote= Koei Tecmo wanted to create a new epilogue-like story in Hyrule Warriors Legends, so Wind Waker was chosen for that.

A picross is a puzzle game where a square grid must be shaded in order to create a picture. Numbers are adjacent to each horizontal and vertical row or column, which indicate how many square grids in that row must be shaded. At the beginning of every main puzzle, a roulette is spun that fills one horizontal and one vertical row, providing the player with a hint. [[Midna]] provides the player with tutorials and tips on how to complete the puzzles. The game includes several modes with different puzzles in each. The pictures in each puzzle are based off of characters and items from ''Twilight Princess'', with the exception of the tutorial puzzles, which are based on objects not specific to ''The Legend of Zelda''. Completed puzzles can then be shared to the [[Miiverse]].
In addition to the standard ''Hyrule Warriors'' gameplay, during battles, it is possible to tap on a character portrait on the map screen to switch to that character.<ref name="announcement trailer"/> There are also at least two new items confirmed to be appearing, those being a golden [[Ocarina]] and a [[Hammer]]. The Ocarina allows Warriors to warp to different [[Owl Statue]]s. The Hammer functions as a heavy weapon, which can be used to weaken the Helmaroc King and to activate [[Warship]]s.
 
 
The game also introduces the Smash Boost Power effect. By gathering up to four playable Warriors against a boss, the effect can be activated. By doing so, the [[Magic Gauge]] is restored.<ref>{{Cite web|quote= However, in battles against big bosses, if the player gathers all the characters that can operate together, they can activate the special effect known as Smash Boost Power.

The mode also lets players customize their Fairies' appearance in costumes called Fairy Wear.
 
 
==Game Information==
 
===Development===
 
On June 10th, 2015, a Japanese trailer for the 3DS version was accidentally leaked to YouTube on Koei Tecmo's official Japanese channel, due to being marked as unlisted rather than private. Though the mistake was quickly corrected, the video had already spread throughout the internet including various gaming news sources. The trailer was later shown as intended at E3 2015 on July 16th during Nintendo's Digital Event with the English title and logo.
 
 
''Hyrule Warriors Legends'' was developed after many fans told the developers they would like to play the original game on a handheld. Porting ''Hyrule Warriors'' to the 3DS proved to be challenging as the hardware is not as powerful compared to the Wii U; the developers had spent a lot of time optimizing the game and to get the right amount of enemies to appear on-screen.<ref name="Interview1"/> In order to run the game as smoothly as possible, the stereoscopic 3D will be disabled on older models of the 3DS, but it can still be utilized on the [[New Nintendo 3DS]] and [[New Nintendo 3DS XL]] due to their superior CPU.<ref name="Interview1"/>
 
 
===Limited Editions===
 
[[File:HWL Treasure Box Contents.jpg|thumb|right|The contents of the treasure box edition]]
 
Just like the original game, two limited editions of the game were released in Japan. The premium box edition included a copy of the game, an art book, and a [[Compass]] clock, resembling the compass worn by [[Linkle]]. The treasure box edition, exclusive to Amazon Japan and GAMECITY, also included the extras from the premium box, plus a golden Ocarina and a [[Fairy]] plush.<ref>{{Cite web|quote= |author= Brian|published= September 16, 2015|retrieved= September 20, 2015|url= http://nintendoeverything.com/hyrule-warriors-legends-coming-to-japan-on-january-21/|title= Hyrule Warriors Legends coming to Japan on January 21|site= Nintendo Everything|type=}}</ref> In Europe, a limited edition is also set to be released, featuring a copy of the game and Linkle's Compass clock.
