It took three years from the original announcement, but we finally learned that the next Zelda game for Switch will be called The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Ever since the reveal in 2019, Nintendo simply referred to the game as “The sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild”.
After the announcement, there was some confusion as to how you actually pronounce the name. Many assumed that the “tears” referred to crying. However, “tears” could also point to something being torn up.

Over the years we’ve seen many instances in which Nintendo resorted to a very common strategy in the gaming industry: releasing a very successful title followed by a sequel using many of the tools created for its predecessor. Engine, assets, animation, and other elements are some of the things that are brought back.
Now we’re waiting on the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, which seems to be taking a lot of elements from the last successful Zelda game. In today’s video, I decided to take a look at other direct sequels that Nintendo produced in the past, analyzing the different strategies and trying to see where the new Zelda may fit into that. You can check out the video down below.

Xbox expected Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 and more to release in 2020

A number of high-profile Switch games currently lack release dates. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2, Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4, and Shin Megami Tensei V are all on the horizon, but there’s no word on when they’ll be available.
There’s an interesting bit of news concerning these titles stemming from the Epic vs. Apple trial. An internal document from Xbox surfaced today, which contains a rough outline of “high-profile” Xbox One releases for the Q3 and Q4 2020 period in addition to Microsoft’s expectations of notable releases from other companies. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2, Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4, and Shin Megami Tensei V are all here, with Microsoft believing as of last August that they could have launched between October and December.
Nintendo marketing pamphlet contains Breath of the Wild 2 blurb, Link and Zelda “deep within the caverns beneath Hyrule Castle”

A big part of the video showcases Link and Zelda in an underground area. Many naturally assumed that the location was below Hyrule Castle, and this has now been spotted in an official Nintendo marketing pamphlet. According to that pamphlet, the two characters are “deep within” the caverns below the castle where “a new and powerful threat awakens.”
The Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 note states:
