What's Happening

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Exclusive Video: Treasure Hunting In Skyward Sword

Link won't just be flying through the clouds in Skyward Sword -- he'll also be jumping down to explore the many islands dotting Skyloft and finding hidden treasures.

In this third Game Informer-exclusive video, you get to see how Link can find special magical boxes on the ground that can be destroyed to unlock treasures above. The video also shows off the Wind Waker-esque map of Skyloft and how you'll use beacons to navigate while flying.

Watch it below and check back to Game Informer for two more exclusive videos later this month.

  • so this game just keeps getting better... Its still my vote for goty

  • Anyone else finding these videos very underwhelming? I thought GI might have better footage
  • WHAT IS THE TREASURE?? but this game looks awesome.  It definitely looks like it will be the most immersive zelda title yet

  • what do u do if u miss the island?
  • I have high expectations for this game....And I'm pretty darn sure I won't be disappointed.

  • That seems like a lot of work, I hope that was more than 5 rupees lol.
  • You've obtained...SAIYAN ARMOR!!

  • im not crazy about the new open chest theme, but thats a small complaint

  • oh my awesome

  • looks fun, and why did you cut off just as we were about to see the treasure?! It ain't right!

  • i need a wii
  • Wow I can not wait for this, I'm going to buy it and wii motion plus then borrow my friends wii just to play
  • I want to see coverage for a game that I actually care about. Devoting an entire magazine on a game we already knew about seems like a waste of time.
  • Getting a good Wind Waker vibe from this game. I love Wind Waker!!!!

  • The music for when you are flying around is so FREAKIN AWESOME

  • I really like the free fall mechanic

  • seriously, what's up with the rectangle shield!?

  • Holy...this game has more in common with Wind Waker than I thought!

    And Wind Waker is my all-time favorite game...hmm...yes. Yes, I'm excited for Skyward Sword.

  • This game is definitely reminding me of Wind Waker.  Which is a good thing because Wind Waker is my second favorite Zelda game.

  • Blue balls for sure on that one.. thanks guys. not.
