It wouldn't be Nintendo if a Direct didn't end on a dramatic reveal--Breath of the Wild 2 is back, and it has an official name now. It is now titled The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. There's a brief trailer that offers a glimpse at some new details, as well as most importantly, the game's release date. The game will be out on May 12, 2023.

Zelda: TOTK

idk man, might need to get used to that.

Took me a moment to get use to BOTW, as well.

Don't make me buy a Switch just to play this

Well, if the rumors/leaks are true for the next Switch hardware, maybe you wouldn't next year.

 

[Muskusrat]

Why has it taken so long?

Waiting for that new Switch 2 hardware is my guess. Cause they allready had the engire and most of the game world done in BoTW.

YUZU gonna have to...

Lol other option is to buy a steam deck and run Tears of the Kingdom via Yuzu lol

In Yuzu we trust

I remember when BOTW leaked on Wii-U, I wanted to play it so badly. I took my sister's Wii-U, which she stopped caring about, hacked it, and spent weeks playing that shit! Then when the Switch got hacked, I converted my Wii-U BOTW save to Switch BOTW, and didn't lose my progress.

Lol. Nintendo fanboys have been crying about how they want to cough up 60 dollars for Metroid and Zelda GameCube ports. All this time hoping when they could've just spun up the fucking iso by now

Why bring that up here? 90% of this site pirates all their games, lol.

I see, 2023 may be interesting. It may be like Twilight Princess, it released on the GameCube, but it also got an upgraded version on the Wii

I can't wait for BotW2!

Never mind the Switch, I'll get it on its successor.

 

[K3Nv2]

Can't wait to play it on the NintendoDeck

 

[SG854]

Yessss

 

[BaamAlex]

In Yuzu we trust

That's a theory xD

 

[LainaGabranth]

hahahahahha i think i see why they didn't post this in the UK now

 

[Xzi]

Yep, looks like a Zelda game alright.

 

[Jokey_Carrot]

Didn't care enough to complete botw tbh. These games are like watching paint dry.

 

[djnate27]

Maybe it's 'Tears' as in rips. Like the kingdom is being ripped apart.

I feel that titles has 2 meanings. Tears as in tearing the kingdom apart and tears as in sadness.

So anyone here able to identify whether or not that was the BOTW1 Hyrule at the end? Swore I saw Death Mountain but I am not that familiar with the map.

looked practically the same as botw
