Game Informer Editor Says Next Zelda Game is Coming "sooner than we think"
- Thread starter Watershed
- Start date
Never happening for obvious reasons. Making a 2D mario level is much easier than making a zelda dungeon which has huge constraints. Then of course a mario level takes from 30s to 3-5 minutes to complete.
I got it. It's a motorbike racing game spinoff. No more Excitebike - Zelda dirt bikes now. Just like how F-Zero is getting replaced by Retro's Starfox racing game.
He's in good company then ;)
My speculation is there's no way they don't want to capitalise on the critical & commercial success of BOTW.. Much like with OOT.. So an MM style asset re-use with less epic scope seems a lock to me..
GIVE US THE SPOOKY EIJI!
Yes! I've been saying this for a bit now. The next Zelda should absolutely take influence from Majora's Mask in some way. MM mixed with BoTW sounds like heaven. And yeah I'm totally down for a slightly smaller world than BoTW in return for more detail, side quests, better dungeons with more interesting unique themes, etc.
I would love a 2D Zelda. Would also love an HD remaster of any of the other Zeldas beside Breath of the Wild, because I have never played them. Just don't let it be a gacha or musou game and I'll be happy.
Edit: GTFO if it's a mobile game.

It could be 2022, instead of 2023 for mainline. I could believe that. For a smaller 2D entry, though, that could be next year.
I've long expected/hoped BotW would get a "full-size stand-alone expansion" a la Majora's Mask and Mario Galaxy 2. It's such a groundbreaking game that's engine allows for so many more possibilities that there's really no reason *not* to reuse the engine and whatever assets possible and just go fucking nuts with it.
After the events of BotW, the world of Hyrule is caught in a perpetual Blood Moon event so Link has to use a Divine Beast to go to the moon, which turns out to be a hollow earth.
A port of Windwaker HD wouldn't surprise me. It's one of the good first party Wii U games still missing and it would sell well.
...especially if they could bump the frame rate to 60fps instead of the Wii U's 30fps. I'd double dip if they could do that.

To create a good 2D Mario level is already hard for people.
To create a good 2D Zelda dungeon would be even harder. Maybe let's start with this before wanting to create something as complex as the BOTW shrines...
A top down Zelda like A Link Between World would be a spin-off for you ? We're waiting since 2013 for the new mainline top down Zelda game. A lot of us were expecting it to come in 2018 or 2019.
Of course if we were to just go with the material there is the bonus ending:
Is the clue for the sequel actually staring us right in the face?
Where Zelda mentions something being wrong with Vah Ruta ..

I might be out of the loop, but is this guy an authority on secret info? Is he just speculating or does he actually know something?
oh screw you lol
Honestly cant remember the last thing he got right. Maybe the NX leak with the screen built in the controller leaked by massive? yeah
2D Zelda Continues on Mobile with a 15$/€ Premium game, successor to the Phatom Hourglass/Spirit Tracks gameplay. Over 2019 3 5€/$ content packa come out or 12$/€ season pass. 3D Zelda on Switch is a Majora's Mask style sequel, taking place in Hryule 10000 years ago when Link gets sent back in time somehow before the shrines were put in place and the Guardians were veing built.
My hopes in order of how much I want them:
1. A third 3D Zelda game in the style of the 3DS N64 Remakes developer by Grezzo on Switch. You find where Navi is and your goal is to rescue her from some bad guy. You play as Adult Link the whole time.
2. A Majoras Mask style sequel that uses resources from BOTW as a base but then does something completely unique and weird with it.
3. A new HD 2D Zelda.

Given how explicit they were that Mario run didn't meet expectations combined with FE heroes making vast sums of money, I doubt there's any chance mobile Zelda is a paid title.
Even if it's not the magnitude of production of Breath of the Wild, I still want another Zelda game really bad.
I can never have too much Zelda, give me anything Zelda and I'll kill my wallet if I have to.
I'm in the minority, but I would love a Triforce Heroes sequel. I thought the first one was great for a budget title, though it had many faults and didn't have much replay value.
And a Zelda game with reused assets would be great. I hope they can get 2 teams working on a main line Zelda title. One that comes pretty soon (within 2 years) and a big, completely new one at the end of the Switch's life.
