Hyrule Warriors Walkthrough |
Hyrule Warriors (ゼルダ無双—Zelda Warriors) is an upcoming Zelda spin-off game[1] for the Nintendo Wii U. It is a collaborative effort between Tecmo Koei, the creator of the Dynasty Warriors series, and Nintendo, the creators of the The Legend of Zelda series. It was announced during a Nintendo Direct presentation on December 18th, 2013. The gameplay is highly similar to that of Dynasty Warriors, but the Zelda universe serves as the setting.
During E3 2014, the game was detailed more by Nintendo and Tecmo Koei. It will feature multiple playable characters, including Link, Zelda, Impa, Midna, and Agitha. The game also includes an original character, Lana. The villain was named to be Cia, an evil witch who kidnaps Zelda early on in the game. Other villains include Valga and Wizzro, who are clearly references to Volvagia and Wizzrobes, respectively, of the Zelda series.
Hyrule Warriors is scheduled for release on September 26th for North America, as well as September 19th for Europe. Hyrule Warriors releases in Japan on August 14th.
