Nintendo won’t release its ‘Breath of the Wild’ sequel in 2021
TL; DR
- Nintendo released its Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Continued in 2022.
- That’s about a year later than some expected.
- In the new game, Link will ascend to the sky above Hyrule.
You will have to wait a while if you want the follow up Breath of the wild. Nintendo told E3 2021 viewers that The legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 (or whatever it is called) won’t get a release date until 2022.
That’s about a year later than some expected, although it’s noticeable that Nintendo hasn’t set a release date for 2021 Breath of the Wild 2 when it introduced the game at E3 2019. Still, fans will have to wait five years after the original Switch game debuted in 2017 to get a proper sequel. Nintendo didn’t explain why the Breath of the Wild 2 The release date was so far away, although the scale of the open-world action RPG and the hurdles to develop during the COVID-19 pandemic may have played a role.
The company offered a consolation prize in exchange for hiring the Breath of the Wild 2 Release date relatively far in the future. A new gameplay teaser trailer has revealed that the game won’t just take place in Hyrule, but above – Link will have to fight enemies on islands floating between the clouds. He also has to deal with an ominous lock (Ganon again?) And cleverly use the time-freeze mechanics to solve puzzles and thwart enemies.
Much depends on it Breath of the Wild 2, although Nintendo is in no rush to announce a release date as it did in 2017. The first game was a title from the Switch early days that was crucial to the sale of the fledgling console. Now the Switch is a well-established commercial hit – the sequel is mostly important to keep interest in the console as it competes with the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and other newer systems.
