It wouldn't be a Nintendo console without a Zelda, and the Nintendo Switch 2 is no exception, though it came in a form we weren't expecting. During today's Nintendo Direct, we learned that Koei Tecmo is making a new Hyrule Warriors game: a Tears of the Kingdom prequel called Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment.

Announced during the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is the next Dynasty Warriors-style game set in The Legend of Zelda universe. The game's story leads into the story of Tears of the Kingdom, following Zelda.
