At first I thought, after hearing a voiced character say it, that maybe it was just some weird style of speaking, but I'm convinced now that this is a major, recurring localization error. "Must needs" never makes sense in any of the lines where I see it.

You see this basically anywhere the word "must" would be used. The word needs gets thrown in there like some kind of tag-a-long.

This is a common usage found in Elizabethan English, Shakespeare used it a few times. I suggest my old Yuke, that you read some more of the old English man and text from his time to grasp a better understanding of the usage. I've done this quest and it is used quite correctly.
