SDCC Footage Shows New Hyrule Warriors Details
Posted on July 27 2014 by Jon Lett
Along with the very recent Darunia footage, more San Diego Comic Con videos of Hyrule Warriors have revealed a few more details of the final game, including new attacks and items, and getting to see more of the already revealed stages.
Check out the videos after the jump!
In this first video, we get to see a lot more of the Land of Twilight stage, as well as the meetings between Lana, Agitha, and Midna. They also show off Lana’s current weapon, a strange wooden staff, that is apparently the item that gives you the range of Kokiri-related attacks that have been hinted at in screenshots, such as a large slingshot, summoning the Deku Tree and Deku Tree sprout, spawning trees and vines, and pulling out a large Deku Shield.
The item switching menu was also shown:
Clearly, the Skyward Sword style of menu was the preferred style with the developers. Tha’s not a bad thing, of course. It is certainly a rather streamlined system.
Here, we see some more Hyrule Field footage, along with a rather short fight between Link and Volga. It should be interesting to see some more of his crazy fire powers. Also, there was a short fight with a Dodongo, where we see Link take him down with just his sword, so apparently, we do not need bombs to defeat him, as was the case in the main series. Interestingly, Impa hands Link the Hero’s Tunic right at the end, and then there is a message on-screen about the Triforce. What could this little conversation be about?
In the last video, Princess Ruto is fighting through Skyloft. Early on, we see her very odd running animation of “swimming” through the air, and then she heads to the Goddess statue to see Link meet up with Fi. Near the end, a bridge pops up, leading to one of the islands clustered around Skyloft. Perhaps we will see some more familiar islands in the near future.
We may or may not see more footage before SCC is over, but we will, no doubt, see more videos and screenshots from Tecmo Koei soon enough. What wil be revealed next?
Hyrule Warriors’ release date is not far off. Are you excited to beat up all these monsters for yourself? Leave a comment!
