Fan Animation Pits Princess Zelda Against “Dark Zelda”

We’re all familiar with the famous Link verses Dark Link battle in Ocarina of Time, but what if it was Princess Zelda who took on her dark counterpart? Japanese animator @Narukami_anim has made that scenario a reality with an awesome animation short. Utilizing a rig created by @artsoff , the video gives us an awesome glimpse at Breath of the Wild-era Zelda wielding the Master Sword and the unsettling red eyes of Dark Zelda.

This short, action-packed sequence will leave viewers hoping for more. The freelance animator claims that the video is a work-in-progress, so hopefully we’ll see more of Dark Zelda in the future! What do you think of Dark Zelda? Sound off in the comments below.
