Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is a sequel to A Link to the Past, but it isn’t a direct sequel. However, the SNES and 3DS do share the same world.

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma also told Kotaku that the new game may include “a different generation of Link and Zelda.”

“It’s not a direct sequel in the sense that it’s the same Link and Zelda. The world is the same and it might be a different generation of Link and Zelda.”

Aonuma also went into some detail about the similarity between the two worlds. There will be some changes in topography, land, and probable modifications to the dungeons in terms of what’s inside.

“It’s the same world. It’s the same space. But in the same way that, over time, the topography can change, there will be some changes. The land will be affected a little bit. The dungeons, for the most part, will be in the same place, but inside might change. Now that I say that out loud, it sounds a little strange, but we’re making decisions based on what’s best for gameplay. We’re picking and choosing what we change and what we don’t, so players can expect some changes.”

Aonuma also believes that the ability to turn Link into a drawing will let “players see it in a whole new light.”
