8 Video Games That Needed DLC

Despite how Sakurai presents him, very few people would call Kirby a badass. For many, this cute little puff-ball was just that, an adorable chunk who was about as threatening as a warm bubble bath (outside of Sonic For Hire that is), all of which was supported by the general easy nature of his associated video games.

However, for some reason, there's always a subset of Kirby fans that are astounded when each new title drops without a "masochist" mode which will push them to their limits and beyond, possibly proving that Sakurai really did manage to convince some that this delightful wee lad was actually more dangerous than a butter knife made of actual butter.

Kirby Star Allies especially caught flak for being just way too easy, and as the multiplayer focus split the challenge between players even more it was hard to argue. Or at least it was until the November 2018 update hit and changed things considerably.

With this update, a brand new, hyper-challenging mode was added in known as Heroes In Another World. Here players had to take on revamped bosses and a tonne of new locations that were insta-kill minefields.

This was the challenge that the select few had been waiting for, and thanks to the ability to tag in new Dream Friends as you went, arguably delivered on the game's core premise of playing as a roster of heroes and villains better than the base experience!
