As usual with the great releases of the video game world, the expectation for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is maximum. The sequel to the acclaimed Breath of the Wild will go on sale for Nintendo Switch on May 12 and this afternoon, at 4:00 p.m. (peninsular time), the Japanese company will share 10 new minutes of video of this long-awaited title.
Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma will once again emcee this new communication on Tears of the Kingdom. The video of “about 10 minutes” can be followed through the official Nintendo channel on YouTube and will be the largest presentation that this project has had since it was announced in the summer of 2019.
The most anticipated game on Nintendo Switch has been in development for six years, but there are still many doubts about it. It is unknown what the premise of the game will be, what its world will be like, or what its main mechanics will be. It is to be hoped that the secrecy with which Nintendo has surrounded this project will end this afternoon. In fact, the video that will be shown today will be longer than all the trailers that have been published so far, and that barely add up to six minutes between all of them.
Tears of the Kingdom is the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, one of the best-rated games in the entire history of the interactive medium. Released in 2017 for Nintendo Switch and Wii U, this adventure was a breath of fresh air in the open world adventure game genre. Its innovative mechanics, fully open structure, and believable physics system have been features that have influenced other titles ever since.
