The Legend of Zelda

Looks like Nintendo is looking to hire a new level designer for The Legend of Zelda. It seems they will be designing events, dungeons, fields and enemies. It’s good to know more Zelda is coming from Nintendo.

We’re just a little over a month out until The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia releases in English. This week, IGN shared a few photos from the localized version. You can check them out in the gallery below.

The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia will be out on June 19. Dark Horse will be offering a Deluxe Edition featuring “a black polypropylene sleeve, lined with velvet flocking, and a scale instruction booklet with fun, theme-appropriate material inside.”

IGN has a new look at the Majora’s Mask life-size replica created by First 4 Figures. Take a closer look at the item with the unboxing video below.

The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia is the next issue in the Legend of Zelda book series by Nintendo, following Hyrule Historia and Arts & Artifacts. Originally, it was slated for a release in the West on April 24th, 2018. However, it seems like it got pushed back a little. Several Amazon websites, including Amazon US, Amazon Germany, Amazon France and Amazon Spain now list the book as releasing on June 19th, 2018. A couple of sites like Amazon UK still have the original April release date, though it’s likely just a matter of time until they change it as well.

Similarly, the release date of the Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia Deluxe Edition, which contains Hyrule Historia, Arts & Artifacts and the Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia in special NES cartridge-themed sleeves, has also been pushed back to June 19.

Over the past few years, we’ve seen an uptick in various Zelda toys. The latest example of this is The Legend of Zelda Uno, which arrives this week.

GameStop lists The Legend of Zelda Uno for a February 15 release. Apparently, it will be exclusive to the retailer as well. There is a listing on Walmart, though it’s currently showing out of stock.

Nintendo delivered Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s second DLC pack last week. Now that the game’s development is truly finished (at least that we know of), fans can’t help but wonder what the future holds for the franchise.

As you would expect, Nintendo isn’t ready to delve into any specific plans just yet. However, Breath of the Wild director Hidemaro Fujibayashi and series producer Eiji Aonuma did talk about their mindset going forward.

The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses has been touring around the world for the past five years. In 2018, the concert will be taking a bit of a break.

You may have noticed that no tour dates have been announced for next year. With 2017 almost coming to an end, we found that a bit odd. We reached out to the folks involved with Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses, and were told by a representative that the there are no plans to tour in 2018 at this time.
