Female Link Included In Hyrule Warriors Legends, Release Date Announced

A female version of Link named Linkle will join the roster of Hyrule Warriors Legends when the 3DS port comes out March 25, 2016. Nintendo announced the new character and release date today during its Nintendo Direct.

Last year, a Hyrule Warriors artbook included pictures of Linkle, hinting at her future inclusion. The green-clad heroine dual-wields crossbows and unleashes spin kicks to take down bokoblins and other Zelda baddies. As with previously announced characters Tetra, Toon Link, King of Hyrule, and Skull Kid, players will be able to transfer Linkle to the game's original Wii U version.
