'''''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess''''' (''{{Tt|Towairaito Purinsesu|トワイライトプリンセス}}'') is the 13th installment in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. Set over a century after the events of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', the game follows [[Link (Twilight Princess)|Link]] as he attempts to save [[Hyrule]] from being subsumed by the [[Twilight Realm]], an alternate dimension wreathed in shadow - along the way, Link is able to transform between the forms of a [[Hylian]] and a [[Wolf Link|wolf]], and is aided by [[Midna]], a mysterious imp native to the Twilight Realm. The game features a notably darker, more realistic art style compared to its predecessor, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' - this has been interpreted as a response to the backlash that ''Wind Waker'', particularly in the West, received for its brightly-colored, cel-shaded art style. | |||
The game was originally planned to release for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] in 2005, but was delayed so that Nintendo could expand upon the content and create a port for the [[Nintendo Wii]].

It is the second-best selling ''Zelda'' game behind ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', having sold over 8.85 million copies as of 2015, and the Wii port received a "Nintendo Selects" label in 2011.
