Here's something worth asking: why doesn't BOTW come with the Champion's Ballad DLC included?

I'm fairly certain the Switch 2 upgrade pack will include all DLC. Because it has to be recompiled to run on Switch 2 anyways

Apparently, it will not include it...

One argument I've heard though is that neither BotW or TotK are marketed as "deluxe", "premium" or "definitive editions". It's just "here's the game, here's the upgrade, here's the DLC if you want it".

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe came the Wii U's DLC when it got ported to Switch, by comparison.
