3 years is nothing haha. I'm excited that it's in development and is looking good, but I don't really care about playing it at this point.


The trailer is just so perfect. I was really expecting Metroid so even though I immediately recognized BOTW's art style, it took me a bit of time to realise what was being shown.

The cave addresses a major complaint about the first game: dungeons. Who knows how the final game will handle them but at the very least it teases that they're addressing this.

Trailer ends with the castle lifting out of the ground. Looks like it'll be set in a fully new world.

Doubt it since it's the same engine and using the same assets of Breath of the Wild. I bet this is their holiday 2020 title.

No way could they make a proper sequel in just two years.

...checks google.

Yo wtf Botw released March 2017. Yeah this could be a holiday 2020 title. Wouldn't expect it to be, but it's not crazy like I first assumed.

Yeah holiday 2020 would be three and a half years using the same engine and mostly the same assets a sequel would be perfectly doable in that time. In fact I'd even say there's plenty of time for some tech improvements and new assets.

Of course, we don't know what they're doing with it, if its an entirely new world just as big as BOTW with more dungeons and story its going to take a long time but if they're re-using the map not so much.

Personally not gonna get my hopes up for 2020, but I can't wait.

Pretty sure that the rumour when this originally popped up was 2020 for the release. Not like things can't easily change still though,

I'm really glad I managed to avoid that rumor. A botw sequel was not even on my radar and man did that make the reveal more exciting.

Well I think the rumour was more along the lines of 2D Zelda in 2019 and new 3D Zelda in 2020, don't think it specifically spoke about a BotW sequel. Though I guess that considering the circumstances that was the most likely option.

Well now we know. I'm okay with this. Hopefully there's new towns and a big mixup in things to find in the world, if it is the same map. Would be fun to see a rebuilt Hyrule.

I don't see how the game could work with the same map. Hopefully he means it's similar to elder scrolls where the game takes place in a nearby region, even though that would be odd considering Zelda's past.

I'll hold judgment and know if they are using the same map or not. It could be the same hyrule, but a different part of it I guess.

If it is the same map and assests then dang, that would be lazy. But hey they will get perfect scores regardless.

Y'all that meant same Hyrule lore wise. They said the map itself was different but this is the same hyrule(as in same location as hyrule in Breath of the Wild). Let's wait and see.

Yeah it could be interpreted as that as well. I think we know for certain it ain't gonna be exactly the same map anyway.

Also I wouldn't be shocked this takes places. Few years after Breath of the Wild, and there were more towns/expanded towns of the first Breath of the Wild.

Maybe it's different for hardcore zelda fans, but I loved how I had no clue where anything was in botw. A sequel in the same area, even with lots of changes, could just not have the same feeling of exploration.

Even with a fully new map though, the systems would need to be changed as well. Stasis, magnet, and freeze couldn't return. Otherwise everyone would start the game as an expert.


I don't know what they should do. It seems almost impossible for the next game to capture the same magic as the first. Maybe reusing the map and doing something different is the way to go.

Yeah I really don't envy them having to figure out what to do with a sequel. Normally after I play games, even my favourites, I know exactly what I'd want to see changed or added in a sequel but for this I have no idea apart from a few QoL changes. I can say I'd love more story but would that then cause the game to be less free flowing and limit exploration?

BOTW was basically a magic formula and any change could ruin it, but I have faith they can nail it.
