• 00:00 - 00:30 hey everyone Zeon over here from Nintendo Life now The Legend of Zelda is hands down my favorite series it's always been there for me i love it to death and the Hyrule Warriors games I enjoyed them quite a bit too especially when the first one came out on on Wii U it was really fun to play as all these different characters from the series and then when Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity rolled around I had big hopes for it i quite enjoyed it the story was great until it wasn't and I imagine a lot of you feel similarly now in the most recent Nintendo Direct for the
• 00:30 - 01:00 Switch 2 Nintendo showed off a brand new Hydraw Warriors game called Age of Imprisonment it's being made in collaboration with Koe Techmo and Ko Techmo's new studio AAA Games Studio that's the name of the studio aaa Games Studio yes that's not a placeholder at least uh maybe it is but for now it's real now Coe Techmo has done a pretty good job with these games in the past and other Warriors games i wasn't as big of a fan of the Fire Emblem Warriors or Fire Emblem 3 Hopes games but I think
• 01:00 - 01:30 it's just that I just wasn't as invested in those worlds or those characters but with Zelda you're giving us the chance to go back in time and play as Zelda and Minaru and Raaru and a bunch of other characters in the past in a a old version of Hyrule yes sign me up sign us all up now this trailer was not on my bingo card it was not something I ever would have predicted honestly I don't know why this game I think both of these games sold really well but it really caught me off guard and there's one little detail that I cannot stop obsessing over i can't stop thinking
• 01:30 - 02:00 about now at the start of the trailer we can hear Zelda talking about the imprisoning war and we see a cut scene that could seem pretty familiar to people that have played Tears of the Kingdom and gone through and seen all of the memories this seems to be like the moment where Zelda first appears in the past she's holding the tier and she gets found by Queen Sonia and King Raru and that's all well and good seems like your standard cut scene the way that they're going to introduce the game but then the trailer has a transition where it fades to white and it cuts back in and you see a close-up of Raaru and Queen Sonia and
• 02:00 - 02:30 the camera pulls away and it pulls back behind Zelda and you can see the blades of grass flowing in the wind raru just quick turns around so does Queen Sonia and Zelda starts walking forward now I've played a lot of video games as many of you have as well and I don't know about you but to me this looks player controlled this looks like a moment here where you're able to take control of Zelda and walk with them you can also see the way that the camera the look of this I look at this and I'm I'm I'm I'm telling myself things i'm definitely
• 02:30 - 03:00 this is a bit of copium here what I'm trying to say is I hope I hope that this is a glimpse of an an element of this new Zelda where you just get to explore the world as Zelda now before you go Zeon ah come on like that's not possible it's never going to happen there are way too many things to climb the the world is way too big they would never allow us that and but hold on I'm not trying to say that we're going to be able to explore the world fully as Zelda be paragliding around be climbing mountains pull out a sword and take on enemies now
• 03:00 - 03:30 we know that later in the trailer we see that Zelda does eventually get equipped with like a zonai weapon some like light sword almost would make sense so I'm not trying to say that she's she's going to be defenseless out here but what I'm hoping this is a glimpse of is the ability for Zelda to explore towns and cities that weren't devastated by Ganon i want to be able to roam around a map as Zelda and interact with NPCs and and learn about the world and the story and the time before the war and even during the war sure i want to be able to find
• 03:30 - 04:00 puzzles in the overworld that can be solved by Zelda's gadgets and abilities i would love dialogue choices i just want them really badly to experiment with this new Hyrule Warriors and I'm so glad that this time they've confirmed that the story is canonical so everything that happens in this game will actually matter now on the flip side there is the chance that this little scene that we've seen here of Zelda walking through the grass with Sonia and Raru is just an opening moment maybe it's similar to Tears of the
• 04:00 - 04:30 Kingdom where Link and Zelda explore the cave and then you know they never get to kind of hang out the the two of them together again maybe this is kind of a similar opening to the game and then we'll get dumped into a big map again where we can go and explore and do tons of combat but I just I would love it if the new Hyrule Warriors game isn't just all combat combat combat i would love that this new game where we get to play as the Breath of the Wild Tears of the Kingdom version of Zelda has more to it than just fighting once again I'm always
• 04:30 - 05:00 an optimist but we've seen so little of this game so far we know it's coming out in 2025 we still don't have a confirmed release date yet but 2025 window and I I have to imagine with the Nintendo Switch 2 hardware that the Hyrule Warriors team the AAA game stu games the AAA games studio team would want to impress us all with their next game on Switch 2 so all I'm saying is I want to know what you think of this little clip i just wanted to climb up on a cliff and shout about this for a second and see if you all
• 05:00 - 05:30 thought anything of it either did it catch you off guard did you think it was odd what do you think this clip is do you think it's a cutscene am I wrong but let me know what you think this is in the comments down below and of course if you enjoyed this video and you want to see more videos like this then why don't you imprison that subscribe button even though you you probably shouldn't do that that's that's legally not like a very nice thing to do uh and then ring that notification bell to be notified whenever we put up new videos like this thank you all so much for watching i'm Zen from Nintendo Life stay safe out there and we will see you all next time
