The title name is still subject to change and Nintendo president Satoru Iwata stressed that this isn’t the new Zelda game in the works for the Wii U. Fans should still expect a core Zelda title to be announced for the Wii U in the near future. Hyrule Warrriors combines the “tried and true action” of the Warrior series with the iconic enemies and weapons from the Zelda franchise. The game is a 3rd-person action title which features hundreds of enemies on screen at once, much like the Warriors series.
The reveal trailer showed off weapons such as a fire rod, bombs, sword, Hylian Shield, and the spin attack from Link.
