Zelda breath of the wild 2 series#

Since The Legend of Zelda first made its debut on the NES all the way back in 1986, there has been over 26 games in the mainline series (including remakes). What better way to sell a system than with a new Zelda? The next expected Nintendo Direct is likely to take place around September, so that's a good bet for where Zelda will show up next. On the other hand, Nintendo might be holding the game back for a new model of Nintendo Switch. It then avoided E3 altogether, instead opting to host a Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase focused on third-party titles at the end of June 2022. Nintendo hosted a Nintendo Direct in February 2022 and there was no sign whatsoever of Breath of the Wild 2, a potential hint that it wouldn't make 2022. Zelda games also have a history of being delayed time and time again, so when 2022 was slated as the current date, we were still a little apprehensive. Nintendo previously looked to release Breath of the Wild 2 in 2022, yet decided to push the game back to help with development in an attempt to make the game 'something special'.ĭue to the global pandemic, numerous games around the world have been delayed as a result and it's only set to continue to affect the industry for the next few years.
