WayForward: No plans for DLC for Shantae and the Seven Sirens | Nintendo Switch News | NintendoReporters

 [![WayForward: No plans for DLC for Shantae and the Seven Sirens](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/wayforward-no-plans-for-dlc-for-shantae-and-the-seven-sirens.jpg "WayForward: No plans for DLC for Shantae and the Seven Sirens")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/wayforward-no-plans-for-dlc-for-shantae-and-the-seven-sirens.jpg)Following the announcement of the release of Shantae and the Seven Sirens, WayForward answered several queries from fans.

One of these was whether the game would receive DLC similar to Shantae: Half-Genie Hero – which would imply an ‘Ultimate Edition’ release in the far future.

## [](#no-ultimate-for-now)No Ultimate for now

In response, WayForward assured folks that they currently had no such plans for additional content:

> We aren’t currently planning for there to be DLC.

Meanwhile, the company also confirmed that they were working on getting the game to Japanese/Asian markets as well.

> There’s no word on whether these regions will get a physical release like North America’s Limited Run Games release, however.Our Steam and Xbox versions should be available worldwide!
>
> We’re still working out the details of our Japanese and Asian release plans on other systems, but when we have news we’ll post it

### [](#about-shantae-and-the-seven-sirens)About Shantae and the Seven Sirens

Formerly referred to as Shantae 5, Shantae and the Seven Sirens sends the belly-dancing, hair-whipping, half-genie hero to a tropical island where Shantae and her friends encounter other Half-Genie allies, but they soon learn there’s trouble in paradise.

As Shantae gets caught up in the island’s sinister secrets, she’ll use all-new dance abilities and instant-transformation Fusion Magic to explore the nonlinear, interconnected world where she’ll visit multiple towns, overcome treacherous labyrinths, and battle dastardly bosses.

The game also features a new collectible card system that grants players the freedom to augment Shantae’s powers to suit their own style of play.

#### [](#key-features)Key Features:

- Explore an interconnected world using new Fusion Magic creature transformations, including a newt and other aquatic forms!
- 4K-resolution hand-painted visuals (on 4K devices only)!
- All-new characters and returning favorites like Rottytops, Sky, Bolo, and the nefarious Risky Boots!
- Collect and power up with monster cards!
- Enjoy minigames, acquire magic and items, and uncover secrets!
- Gorgeously animated TV-style cutscenes!
