What This DLC and Update Package Includes

This download bundles two separate items: the update file for Medarot 9 (5MB) and the Kuwagata DLC (18KB). Both are decrypted CIA files, which means they're intended for use with the Citra 3DS emulator on PC. The update applies to both the Kabuto and Kuwagata versions, while the DLC is specific to the Kuwagata version. If you own the Kabuto version, you'll still benefit from the update, but the DLC content is tied to Kuwagata.

The update file is available for both versions separately (Kabuto and Kuwagata), and you'll need to pick the one that matches your base ROM. The DLC file is only for Kuwagata. Keep this in mind when downloading to avoid mismatches.

Key Features

• Update file (5MB): Applies bug fixes and improvements to the base game. Required for DLC compatibility.
• Kuwagata DLC (18KB): Adds extra content to the Kuwagata version, including additional medarots and quests (based on the original release).
• Decrypted CIA format: Ready to install in Citra without needing decryption tools.
• Separate files for Kabuto and Kuwagata: Ensures compatibility with your specific version.
• Small file sizes: Quick downloads and easy installation.
