New playable characters have been confirmed for Hyrule Warriors, courtesy of today’s Nintendo Direct presentation. Zant and Ghirahim will both be included on the roster. The two previously appeared in Zelda games.

Zant’s signature weapon is his schimitar, which he swings around. Meanwhile, Ghirahim’s signature weapon is his Demon Blade – just like in Skyward Sword he will be a savant in sword play.
