Zelda: Tri Force Heroes – story, princess isn’t Zelda, unsure where it fits into the timeline
Posted on June 18, 2015 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News
This information comes from Zelda: Triforce Heroes director Hiromasa Shikata…
On the story…
The story takes place in a world that is not Hyrule. It’s a kingdom that is sort of fashion-obsessed and in that kingdom, an event happens involving the princess of the kingdom –
On whether the princess is Zelda…
No. The king, of course, wants to solve this problem so he puts a general call out to the kingdom for heroes to assemble, and who answers the call, but Link and that’s the beginning of your adventure.
On where it fits into the Zelda timeline…
That’s a tough question. The Zelda timeline is “complicated” and if you look at the history of Zelda you will see there are three branches. I can’t really designate which one of those branches we’re looking at, but as far as the design itself, we looked to Link Between Worlds. But it’s not – as far as a timeframe – it’s not before or after. We haven’t really settled on that.
On whether it takes place in the same universe as a Link Between Worlds…
With the history of Zelda we have these three parallel worlds. I can’t say which one it’s on/in at this point.
– Play along two paper dolls called “dopples” in single-player
– Can’t play the game as two players and bring along a single paper doll dopple
– It’s either 3-player co-op or single-player
– If you want to play with only one other player, you can duke it out in the game’s coliseum mode
