In Japan, RPG Maker Fes received a number of add-ons. These allowed players to use modern, sengoku, horror, and other assets when creating their Nintendo 3DS games. While Europe has had access to these add-ons since launch, a North American release date was never discussed. However, without any announcements or fanfare, add-ons were made available in North America in July 2017. Both free and paid DLC packs can be acquired.
Immediately after choosing the Download Contents option from the main menu, RPG Maker Fes will connect to the internet. If you have not already downloaded the All Downloadable Contents package, the game will ask if you wish to acquire it and note it is necessary to play games that use those assets. It is a free download and does not add those assets for you to use, but will allow you to play the games of other people who have acquired those assets.
As for the actual add-ons that give you access to new sprites, the following are available in the Alone and Set categories.
- Chibi Character Pack Key – Free (Adds 24 chibi character sprites.)
- Modern Set Key – Free (Modern day RPG assets.)
- Special Materials Set Key – $1.99 (Modern town theme special materials.)
- Modern Set Key 2 – $5.99 (Modern map chips and chibi character sprites.)
- Modern Horror Set Key – $8.99 (Horror map chips, chibi character sprites, and sound effects.)
- Sengoku Set Key – Free (Sengoku map chips, chibi character sprites, character and monster graphic images, and backgrounds.)
- Sengoku Set Key 2 – $3.99 (Sengoku map chips and chibi character sprites.)
- Supernatural Set Key – $5.99 (Supernatural map chips and chibi sprites.)
- Sci-Fi Set Key – Free (Sci-Fi map chips, chibi character sprites, character and monster graphic images, and backgrounds.)
- Sci-Fi Set 2 Key – $8.99 (Unspecified sci-fi materials.)
It is now possible to also purchase extra upload slots on the RPG Maker Fes servers, so you can have more than one game available at a time. You can buy up to 15 extra upload slots, and each one costs $0.99.
RPG Maker Fes is immediately available for the Nintendo 3DS.
