Hyrule Warriors: Echoes of Heroes

Hyrule Warriors: Echoes of Heroes is a DLC add-on pack to Hyrule Warriors for the Nintendo Switch. It adds in many new locations, characters, weapons, and stories to use in-game. It is split into four sagas: Heroes from Afar: Part 1, Heroes from Afar: Part 2, Songs of Champions, and Beings from Across Reality.
==Saga 1: Heroes from Afar: Darkness Rising==
Link is called into Hyrule Castle for a meeting with Princess Zelda and Impa. Apparently, a dark new enemy has opened three interdimensional rifts across Hyrule, opening gates to three parallel worlds. Link, Zelda, and Impa formulate a plan: enter the rifts, find any sources of the dark power in their respective worlds, and capture a fragment each for analysis. They decide to split up, taking no soldiers with them as to avoid mass panic spreading around the kingdom.
===Chapter 1: Link and the Red Hero===
Link enters his rift, entering into the Mushroom Kingdom. There, he sees an army of Koopa Troopas, Goombas, and Shy Guys attacking several areas where Toad soldiers have been protecting Peach's Castle. Link quickly steps up to aid them, gaining the support of the Toad Guard Captain and his troops.
While Link pushes back the army, Mario enters the fray, joining with link to aid him in battle. They drive off the Koopa army, but Princess Peach is taken captive! Link and Mario can't enter Bowser's Fortress, as the dark power has formed a barrier around the castle, which only the Koopa King and his minions can pass through.
Mario then remembers a secret entryway within Luigi's Mansion. However, King Boo and his forces have already captured most of the manor, with only a handful of chambers (including E.Gadd's Lab) still out of his control. Luigi is already helping the Toad army there, so they join up with him.
Eventually, the three force King Boo to retreat, opening the gateway to the Fortress. They manage to disable the barrier generators, allowing the Toad army to advance. They fight their way through Bowser's Fortress, entering the Throne Room. They finally come face to face with the Koopa King himself, Bowser!
After a battle with the tyrannical turtle, they succeed in defeating him. Link seals the Fragment of Darkness in a Spirit Bubble, safely containing it and dispersing the dark power in the Mushroom World.
With the battle won, Peach returned, and the dark power contained, Link returns home, with the Mario Bros. coming with him to aid the Hyrulean forces in the upcoming battles.
