The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is brimming with novel gameplay

Due to the colossal triumph of ‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’, many gamers have been eagerly anticipating its sequel ‘The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’. As the 15th installment in the series and the main storyline, it is scheduled to be released on May 12, 2023, exclusively for the Nintendo Switch platform.

Recently, game developer Eiji Aonuma made a speech at the Famitsu Dengeki Game Awards 2022, stating that the sequel is filled with innovative gameplay that will revolutionize the gaming world. Players are free to do anything they wish and it is hoped that this fresh experience will bring them delight and surprise.

Nintendo has introduced new designs in ‘The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’, setting it apart from its predecessor. Given that players can explore the vast expanse of the sky and land, and alter the direction of the game world, it is believed that these novel gameplay mechanics will be highly engaging. Furthermore, the increased price point of the game from $59.99 to $69.99 can be justified. Previously, Doug Bowser, the President of Nintendo of America, opined that the elevated price of ‘The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’ is reasonable, reflecting the profound, immersive experience it offers.

According to data from Japanese retailers, the total number of pre-orders for ‘The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’ has already surpassed that of its predecessor, ‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’. While the data from individual retailers has its limitations, it is reasonable to believe that the pre-order count may rise to greater heights as the release date approaches, given the fervor surrounding ‘The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’.
