Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 18 Comments
As previously mentioned, Koei Tecmo considered including a female Link character in Hyrule Warriors known as “Linkle”. This scrapped character was shown for the first time in the game’s Japanese art book.
It now sounds like Koei Tecmo is having – at least partially – second thoughts about not including Linkle in Hyrule Warriors. The company posted the following on the title’s Twitter account earlier today:

– Uses kagemi skills to search for lost things
– Goes to the mountain to look for a missing girl and vanishes
– Voiced by Atsuko Tanaka
Rui Kagamiya
– Ren’s assistant
– She respects him, calling him sensei, and as well as helping him out she thinks of him as family
– Voiced by Maaya Sakamoto
Locations
– Explore 3 main locations at the start
– These include forest and buildings around the mountain
Mikomori Onsen
– An abandoned old, big house known as a famous ghost spot where lots of ghosts are
Kurosawa Antiques
– Also a cafe
– Yuuri lives and works here
– People come here to request lost things be found, or have their fortunes told by Hisoka
Shirazu no Mori
– A forest in the mountain
– Ever since it became famous as a suicide spot, there’s been a big fence around it, which people sneak in through
– There are also rumors of a murderer hiding inside
Gameplay
– Plays out a bit like mission mode
– Choose your mission and then you unlock new missions
– You can replay missions as much as you’d like
– Once you complete the chapter goals, you get the next chapter
– Your goal is to find people
– Each person has different reasons for going to the mountain and getting there, so you’ll have to gather as much info about them as you can
– You can use something that’s like a “scent” of a person from things like a hair, their documents etc.
– That aids your “kagemi”
– Then you use your clues to search for them
– If you chase the memories of them you’ll find them, so you have to follow their past footsteps
– When you find them and “bring them back” from their spiriting away, it’s mission complete, but you’ll have to watch out for the ghosts lurking
– You can also use your “ghost sight” to find hints from ghosts
– Looks kind of like hidden ghosts in other games
– Gameplay on the TV
– Map on the GamePad
– The touch system for picking up items is back
– Ghost hands are also back
