In a post on November 7, X user OatmealDome claimed the Master Quest files would require DLC to unlock rather than a simple update. Nintendo has not publicly announced any Master Quest DLC for the remake.

An extra mode with a history of re-releases
Master Quest first appeared as a bonus disc packed with some copies of The Wind Waker on GameCube, and was later unlockable after beating the 3DS remake of Ocarina of Time once.
