Regarding the sequel, in order to make the vast world you enjoyed exploring in the original game even more impressive, the team is working hard on its development, so you'll have to wait a bit longer before we can provide more updates.

Not surprised at all, hope they can manage late 2021, but wouldn't be shocked if it slips through to 2022...

Yeah, that's not even a game I think about existing. Not expecting it to actually release for another couple of years.

Nintendo says this when they mean "We aren't showing you that today." Don't look too far into it.

This will release next year for the anniversary. Not having an update right now means nothing, he just had to address it because they announced the prequel. They weren't going to immediately overshadow that with BotW2 news.

God same overworld would be so underwhelming. The joy of BOTW is seeing each new piece of that world. I'd be massively deflated if its the same one.

I wouldn't infer any release date information from that statement. He knows people are hungry for sequel information and had to preface this Warriors announcement with some sort of statement.

Next Update: They're starting development over and handing it off to Retro.

They're not going to talk about BotW 2 again until AOC has been out and is selling. I'd say Game Awards, and then could release any time between March and November 2021.

Was this not always the assumption? It'll be the same overworld with major geographic changes if the castle rising into the sky is any indication. Couple that with underground sections and dungeons and it'll feel drastically different.

He's telling us we have to wait, and I'm honestly still surprised they've announced it this fast. Take your time.

Cool, it will will either be released in fall 2021, or officially shown off again then and released in spring 2022

Good chance the next major update will be tied to the pro announcement
