'''''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess''''' (''{{Tt|Towairaito Purinsesu|トワイライトプリンセス}}'') is the 13th installment in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], released on [[Wii]] and [[Nintendo GameCube]] in late 2006. The art style of the game - focusing on darker colours; with a taller, older Link and some character designs verging on grotesquery - is often perceived as a response to the backlash, particularly in the USA, to the brightly cel-shaded stylings of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. In line with this, the reveal of the game at E3 2004 involved a trailer focusing on action, with taglines including "Blades Will Bleed."<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BP1I9yz1bU E3 2004 Nintendo annonce Zelda Twilight Princess]  [sic]</ref>
'''''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess''''' (''{{Tt|Towairaito Purinsesu|トワイライトプリンセス}}'') is the 13th installment in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. Set over a century after the events of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', the game follows [[Link (Twilight Princess)|Link]] as he attempts to save [[Hyrule]] from being subsumed by the [[Twilight Realm]], an alternate dimension wreathed in shadow - along the way, Link is able to transform between the forms of a [[Hylian]] and a [[Wolf Link|wolf]], and is aided by [[Midna]], a mysterious imp native to the Twilight Realm. The game features a notably darker, more realistic art style compared to its predecessor, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' - this has been interpreted as a response to the backlash that ''Wind Waker'', particularly in the West, received for its brightly-colored, cel-shaded art style.


A remaster, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD]]'', was announced for [[Wii U]] on November 12th, 2015. This was released on March 4th, 2016.
The game was originally planned to release for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] in 2005, but was delayed so that Nintendo could expand upon the content and create a port for the [[Nintendo Wii]]. The Wii version was released as a launch title in November 2006 in North America, and was released the following month in Japan, Europe, and Australia; the GameCube version was released in December 2006, as the final first-party title on the console. Upon release, ''Twilight Princess'' received critical acclaim and won several Game Of The Year awards, being cited as one of the greatest video games of all time. It is the second-best selling ''Zelda'' game behind ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', having sold over 8.85 million copies as of 2015, and the Wii port received a "Nintendo Selects" label in 2011. A remaster of the GameCube version, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD]]'', was released for the [[Wii U]] in March 2016.

This game's story takes place after the [[Child Ending]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', when [[Zelda]] sent [[Link#Ocarina of Time|the Hero of Time]] back in time to prevent the events of ''Ocarina of Time'' and allowed him to live out his childhood.
This game's story takes place after the [[Child Ending]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', when [[Zelda (Ocarina of Time)|that generation's Princess Zelda]] sent [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|the Hero of Time]] back in time to prevent the events of ''Ocarina of Time'' and allowed him to live out his childhood.


This generation's Link lives a peaceful life in Ordon Village as a goat herder and animal wrangler. He is a valuable friend to both the village and forest. One day, Link is given the opportunity to visit Castle Town as an envoy to present a specially crafted sword to the royal family. Before Link embarks, however, tragedy strikes the village and he is forced to leave his tranquil life behind. Link must venture forth into the vast land of Hyrule to bring peace back to his village and, along the way, uncover the secret behind the mysterious Twilight.
