Rabbit and Bear and 505 Games promised the Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes The Chapter of Marisa expansion would debut on February 27, 2025, and the developer and publisher met that promise and shared a DLC launch trailer. The video spends over a minute setting the stage for this additional story and introducing the characters who feature prominently in it.
As this is a DLC prequel to the events of the main game, everything in The Chapter of Marisa doesn’t actually directly affect any save file you have for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. However, a number of characters we can recruit in the main campaign appear alongside Marisa. So we get more context about who she is and their motivations.
Things begin with Marisa exploring ruins. She meets Nil, who joins her party. We also see Lilwn being kidnapped at one point, as well as combat footage of Marisa fighting alongside Nil and Nowa’s sister Leena. Alwe also comes up as a supporting ally at points. The masked antagonist Gausshastur is shown as a major opponent for this tale.
Here’s the full launch trailer:
We actually do have exact dates for the rest of the add-ons for the title too. The Chapter of Seign will go over his story starting on March 13, 2025. That will be followed by The Chapter of Markus. That one was voted on via a poll that tasked supporters of the crowdfunding efforts to decide which other characters’ stories would be told via an expansion.
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is available on the Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC, and The Chapter of Marisa DLC is out now.
