Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity was featured for about an hour during Koei Tecmo’s presentation at Tokyo Game Show 2020. Highlights of the stream include the showing off physical goodies from the Japanese Treasure Box edition, a new character reveal, and a new story trailer. But by far the coolest takeaway was the gameplay footage that was shown, which was over 10 minutes in length! The stream gave us a proper look at how Breath of the Wild‘s gameplay has…
A new story-based trailer for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity was revealed during Koei Tecmo’s live stream at Tokyo Game Show 2020. The trailer shows off all four Champions, impactful footage of the destruction across Hyrule at the time of the Calamity, and even a scene in front of the Great Deku Tree. Personally, the music really stood out for me in this teaser, as it fit both the original Breath of the Wild themes but also the Hyrule Warriors…
Koei Tecmo hosted a 50 minute Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity showcase this morning as part of Tokyo Game Show 2020.

As we learned from the game’s announcement trailer, our next update regarding Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is just around the corner — tomorrow, in fact! Admittedly, it’s anyone’s guess as to how substantial this news will end up being. However, considering that Nintendo made a point to mention the update so far in advance, I’ve got to believe we’ll learn quite a bit. Today’s question is simply this: what do you hope to see tomorrow? Personally, I’m eager to…
|| Previous Chapter || Next Chapter || Chapter Six Link clenched his body as tightly as he could as he plummeted downward, anticipating a sudden, deadly impact with unrelenting ground below. He estimated that he had only been falling for several seconds at this point, but the anxiety from his expected demise had made it feel like an eternity. “I’m sorry brother!” he heard from a ways below him. He couldn’t see Rukio in the pitch blackness of the chasm, but he…
It’s safe to say that times have been rough for the last several months. It’s stressful without a doubt, and acclimating to the new norm hasn’t been easy for a lot of folks. Speaking personally, I’ve found myself listening to a lot of lo-fi playlists and chillwave music to cope throughout the day while I’m stuck at home glued to my desk. In short, it’s a wonderful genre of music to relax to. I’ve found that classic Zelda tunes lend themselves…

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is arguably one of the biggest surprises dropped by Nintendo in years. While another Hyrule Warriors game seemed likely (the game had been ported to both 3DS and Switch since its original Wii-U release), most people weren’t anticipating the spin-off series to deliver a prequel to Breath of the Wild. In contrast to the original Hyrule Warriors, which was a more general love letter to the Zelda franchise, Age of Calamity is driving directly into…

Of course, then there’s also the secret ending that can be unlocked by surviving the game and never running out of hearts.
