Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog crosses over (http://blogs.sega.com/2014/03/27/link-up-with-the-new-dlc-for-sonic-lost-world-the-legend-of-zelda-zone/) with Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series in a free Sonic: Lost World (http://www.joystiq.com/game/sonic-lost-world) DLC level available from the Wii U eShop starting today.
Lost World's "The Legend of Zelda Zone" dresses Sonic up in Link's garb and pits him against familiar enemies from Nintendo's classic franchise. What starts off as a lighthearted trek through an approximation of Hyrule Field soon turns deadly, as Sonic must defeat Deku Scrubs, flee rolling Gorons, and face off against the most sinister enemies of all -- Cuccos.
This isn't the first time that Nintendo has loaned out its franchise settings for Sega's latest hedgehog adventure. A Sonic: Lost World level based on Yoshi's New Island (http://www.joystiq.com/game/yoshis-new-island) hit the Wii U eShop back in December (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/12/18/yoshis-island-zone-is-one-of-two-sonic-lost-world-dlc-stages/), pairing Sega's mascot with Shy Guys and Piranha Plants against a pastel-colored backdrop.
