Zelda games – the mainline console ones in particular – have a propensity to be delayed. When asked why this tends to happen, Shigeru Miyamoto told Kotaku:

“First of all, it would be great if I didn’t have to put a release date out at all. But I have to.”

“I think there’s different reasons for delays. One could be that the direction just hasn’t been decided, which is probably the worst kind of delay. And the other is that the direction has been decided but putting that into reality—implementing that—is taking time. So it might have taken us six months to do this much. It’ll take us a year to do that much.”

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma also weighed in, sharing the following:

You can see how the results are panning out thus far below. The team is currently on version 3.0 of the interface.

We’ve yet to see Link’s classic green tunic in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Is it in the game, or will it be absent this time around? Shigeru Miyamoto won’t say.

GameRant approached Miyamoto at E3 last week about the tunic. He said:

“I don’t know, but there are just a lot of clothes in this game. So maybe if we had green clothes people would want to wear it all the time. And yeah, with the variety of clothes you get, that this game offers, you can really customize your character. And I can’t really divulge too much more than this.”

Zelda producer Aonuma was similarly quiet when asked about the tunic as well.
