Nintendo's New 'Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity' Trailer Introduces More Familiar Faces
Set 100 years before ‘Breath of the WIld.’
Nintendo has released the latest installment of its string of trailers for Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity, the upcoming Hyrule Warriors sequel meant to serve as a prequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
The trailers, primarily the one above, focus on reintroducing familiar faces from Breath of the Wild, like the mischievous Koroks. Similar to their function in that title, the Koroks in Age of Calamity will hide in various places on the world map, leaving it up to players to find them. The trailer above also confirms that Hetsu, the Korok responsible for expanding your inventory in BOTW, will return in the prequel.
The trailer below features the antagonistic Yiga clan, while previous footage focused on returning characters like Impa and younger versions of Robbie and Purah. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity will take place 100 years before the event of Breath of the Wild and playable characters will include Link, Zelda, and the four Champions: Daruk, Mipha, Revali, and Urbosa.
Age of Calamity will be available for the Nintendo Switch on November 20. Players with save data for Breath of the Wild will receive a bonus weapon when starting the Age of Calamity: the Training Sword.
In other gaming news, Sony says it will optimize the fan of its PlayStation 5 with updates.
