It still feels like a Zelda game \u2013 you play as Link, grab the Master Sword, and rescue Zelda \u2013 but the gameplay is all Dynasty Warriors. That means flashy combat against hundreds of monsters, capturing bases, and beating gigantic bosses.<\/p>\n<p>If you played <a class=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/fire_emblem_warriors\"><strong>Fire Emblem Warriors<\/strong><\/a>, you&#8217;ll know a huge part of the fun involves playing as your favourite characters in a completely new way. In typical Zelda games, we&#8217;re limited to playing as Link, but Hyrule Warriors gives you an opportunity to experience combat as the likes of fan favourites Zelda and Ganondorf alongside the more obscure Zant, Fi, and Midna.<\/p>\n<p>In this guide, we&#8217;re going to not only list every single character you can unlock in Hyrule Warriors, but we&#8217;re going to tell you exactly what you have to do to unlock them.
