Zelda timeline Hidemaro Fujibayashi

Hidemaro Fujibayashi and Eiji Aonuma, who has served as the director on Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, has shared general thoughts about the Zelda timeline and how much Nintendo thinks about it.

The timeline has long been a topic of discussion for fans, but there have been times when Nintendo has been coy about it. When asked by Game Informer how much consideration and importance Nintendo gives it, Fujibayashi said it’s “something that the development team recognizes and it considers, but to an extent.” This is because focusing on it way much can put restraints on creativity.

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom Breath Wild sequel

Tears of the Kingdom did something that we don’ usually see from Nintendo, which is a sequel set in the world of a previous Zelda game – that being Breath of the Wild. While that just happened, don’t expect to see something similar again anytime soon.

Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma, speaking with Game Informer, said Nintendo’s goal was to exhaust what was possible in the world of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. He went on to say specifically: “I don’t think that we’ll be making a direct sequel to a world such as that that we’ve created.”

Outer Wilds

It’s time for the newest North American Nintendo Download report for the week of December 7, 2023. The latest releases include Hammerwatch II, Outer Wilds, and more.
