The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
We haven't heard much from Nintendo about The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild in a while, but that changed this morning. The company released three new trailers for the highly anticipated game, which showcase some of the game's varied environments as well as a few more looks at Link adeptly getting around – and above – danger.
In the first clip, you can see Link taking full advantage of his parachute item, both as a standalone way to descend from great heights safely and also a fun way to transition to the air during shield snowboarding. There are also some shots of topless Link going for a quick dip (scandalous!), scaling a mountain, and making his way to a mysterious temple.
Link gets a little more hands-on in the next clip, which shows him hunting, gathering resources, and taking on some of the world's enemies. Look out: Link is a bit of a firebug...
Finally, this clip shows off the game's day and night cycle, as well as its changing weather. Take a look to see stormclouds roll in and out and the scene transform from something peaceful and inviting to a place that's a bit more ominous.
For more on Breath of the Wild, take a look at our earlier hands-on impressions. The game's set for a 2017 release on the Wii U and Nintendo NX.
