We’ve covered a lot of really cool Zelda-inspired titles here at Zelda Dungeon, but Mika and the Witch’s Mountain has to be my favorite that I’ve had the pleasure of covering. Created by developer Abraham Cozar, Mika and the Witch’s Mountain is an indie title that will be soaring to consoles and Steam later in 2023. This coming-of-age story takes you all across the sky as aspiring witch, Mika, as you soar on your broomstick, delivering packages to the island’s…

Breath of the Wild took the traditional Zelda mold and flipped it on its head. Probably the biggest thing missing from Breath of the Wild were traditional dungeons. In lieu of dungeons like Eagle’s Tower, The Water Temple, or Ancient Cistern, we were given four dungeon-like beasts to tame and free from the control of Calamity Ganon. They worked more like larger Shrine puzzles in which the player had to unlock four terminals to reach the beast’s heart and then challenge…

Everyone has been hyped up for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom since the first teaser that released at E3 Summer 2019. The hype continued when we got more footage late last year during a Nintendo Direct. As someone who has been playing video games for a very long time I know what it is like to get really excited for a game and then for it to be a total let down. (I’m looking at you Sonic…

This probably is not a new question on everyone’s minds but as we are now a little less than four months away from Tears of the Kingdom; it makes you wonder what will be next for the Zelda series. Game developers are probably already brain storming the next Zelda title to follow Tears of the Kingdom, so do you think that future Zelda games will keep with the open world format? Breath of the Wild was the first truly open…

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom releases in about four months. You would think that Nintendo would be all over marketing the newest Zelda game, and the Zelda game that is a direct sequel to the Game of the Year winning Breath of the Wild. Since the initial teaser trailer in 2019 we’ve had next to no news regarding Tears of the Kingdom. So, do you think that Nintendo will continue their slow marketing plan? Having a small…

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild set a new precent for open world games. Since the game’s release in 2017 many titles since have fallen prey to comparison to Breath of the Wild. Some of those games actually do take a lot of pages from Breath of the Wild’s book, and others can only be compared in trailer alone. Last year when the trailer for Sonic Frontiers released it was not long until the “this is another Breath…

Merry Christmas everyone! And Happy Holidays to those who do not celebrate. I hope your holiday season has been filled with love and light! Since today is Christmas I thought it would be fun to speculate what your favorite Zelda character would do on Christmas morning. Zelda, I’m going to use her Breath of the Wild iterations here, has always been my favorite character and since she’s a Princess I’m sure she would already be used to early mornings. Though…

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, hopefully, releases next year. We’ve yet to see much news about the highly anticipated sequel to Breath of the Wild, but we know it’s coming. From the little footage that we’ve received in recent months a lot of comparisons have been made to Skyward Sword. So, how much of an influence do you want Skyward Sword to play on Tears of the Kingdom? In past Zelda titles other games have been referenced…

When Breath of the Wild released in back in 2017 it was not long before DLC was announced. Breath of the Wild’s DLC came in two different waves and featured Master Mode, Trial of the Sword, Champion’s Ballad and a few other unlockables . Tears of the Kingdom will be here before we know, and today’s question asks: Do you want DLC for Tears of the Kingdom? The short answer is: YES! I do have some concerns though. Breath of…

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom finally comes out next year! The highly anticipated sequel to Breath of the Wild has been met with a lot of hopes, but what about fears? Today I want to discuss what your greatest fear about Tears of the Kingdom will be. I feel in my heart that I know that the game will be spectacular. Breath of the Wild set a precedent for video games and I feel like Tears of…
