The Legend of Zelda Wii U Spin-Off, Hyrule Warriors, Pits Link Against Hordes of Enemies in Action Fighter (TRAILER)
During today's Nintendo Direct, a new Legend of Zelda game was announced by Satoru Iwata, tentatively called, Hyrule Warriors.
Hyrule Warriors will play a lot like Dynasty Warriors and be sort of an open world mass fighting game with non-stop action. Main character Link will take on hordes of enemies instead of his usual puzzle, strategy, and then fight type games.
The game is slated for release in 2014 for the Wii U, and will be a spin-off for the series that will not follow any part of the current story-line.
