Tears of the Kingdom producer confirms that there is currently no DLC planned and they will likely be moving on to a new game (www.ign.com)

I'm kind of bummed about this, the game already has a ton of content but BoTW had some great challenging DLC and ToTK would have definitely benefitted from something similar.

Wasn't TOTK born out of some mechanics they originally planned as DLC but needed to expand on? Maybe I am wrong, but I do get the mindset of moving forwards. I do honestly hope for something not BOTW-esq soon, but without a handheld consol that seems unlikely

My prediction is that we'll have an original 2D Zelda in the meantime. Link's Awakening 2019 sold incredibly well, and it was likely a proof of concept for the developer Grezzo to make a new one. The same happened in 2017 with Metroid: Samus Returns, a remake of a Game Boy game (Metroid II: Return of Samus) by an outside developer (Mercury Steam) that was a proof of concept for that developer to make an original entry (Metroid Dread).
