Nintendo has just revealed its new generation console called Switch, which was formerly called Nintendo NX. Along with the unveiling, the game company also revealed that its flagship game for its soon-to-be-released console is Legend of Zelda: Breath of Fresh Air, which many call as the most ambitious Nintendo game.
Looking at the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild footage, one is treated to a stunning view of their surrounding with countless small details which begs to be admired. The colorful vista seemed to invite your character to explore the fields and forests before him as Hyrule Castle and Death Mountain looms as a silhouette against the vast landscape.
According to series director Eiji Aonuma, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is 'twelve times the size of Twilight Princess,' which is welcome news because with the latter, Hyrule was just a vast, empty field where nothing significant can be found. Zelda, on the other hand, has a treasure-filled map waiting to be discovered as well as mini dungeon shrines to face and quests to complete. Just to give you an idea how vast the map of Breath of the Wild is, there are a total of 100 shrines all over the map containing their own unique puzzles which can give you an upgrade or a new heart container.
Aside from the vast landscape, Link has a new gadget -which enables him to check his items. There he can utilize and change whatever tools he want to use. If you are expecting to see Link's telescope, you'll be happily disappointed because his iPad-like gadget is a much better upgrade.
In the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild footage, there is also an upgrade in Link's wardrobe with each of their advantages. For example, if you venture through the snowy landscape, you have an apt clothing for that including helpful items to make your journey better, like a torch to provide warmth during the icy journey. Even weapons are interchangeable. Just one thing to remember, although there are a lot of weapons to find along the way, but they will wear down after using it for an extended time period. These are just some of the changes but a lot more to fill a single article.
