Nintendo revealed a first look at the Zelda Breath of the Wild sequel.
This years first all digital E3 event has wrapped up and plenty of games for the coming year have been revealed. One of the last gaming companies to present was Nintendo.
During todays Nintendo Direct many fans were hoping for some Animal Crossing New Horizons announcements for the rumored DLC addition. However, Nintendo decided to completely ignore the existence of Animal Crossing and instead revealed a first look at Zelda Breath of the Wild 2 among other announcements.
Not only did the big N reveal a release window for the game but they also shared a first look at some gameplay for the sequel.
The sequel features similar but enhanced visuals as the prequel and all new puzzles, powers, weapons and enemies. Take a look at the first gameplay trailer below.

Breath of the Wild 2 is the sequel to the extremely popular Nintendo Switch launch title back in 2017 and could now be much closer to release than one might have thought.
The next open world game in the Zelda franchise has been announced more than a year ago back on June 11th, 2019. Since then Nintendo has been very quiet around the game with very little to no information shared with fans so far.
There have been many speculations and reports around a surprise release of the game. With PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X releasing this Holiday, Nintendo is in a position where they need to assure gaming fans that the hybrid console will remain relevant during the holiday season and beyond.
Since the release of Animal Crossing New Horizons the first party Switch gaming lineup looks very skim and a Breath of the Wild 2 surprise release in time for this years holiday season could combat that and give Switch fans something to look forward to.
Voice acting completed on Breath of the Wild 2
Breath of the Wild 2 from Nintendo Direct @ E3 2019 According to Spanish voice actors Marc Navarro and Nerea Alfonso who both worked on the game and voiced Revali and Zelda, we may have a hint at the status of the game.
According to the “Un café con Nintendo” podcast the two voice actors nearly revealed a story detail about the upcoming game but quickly backtracked as clearly they are currently under a Nintendo embargo where they are not legally allowed to share any details about the game.
A statement translated by Risu64 mentions: “There’s a lot of weird stuff surrounding Zelda in the first game, and also in the second game, which we haven’t worked on [laughs]”. Based on what was said, it sounds like they’ve provided voice work and are tiptoeing around their NDA.
The interesting part is that voice acting is usually done towards the end of a development cycle of a game. This could indicate that voice acting has already been completed making way for a possible Breath of the Wild 2 release sometime this year or early next year.
Breath of the Wild 2 from Nintendo Direct @ E3 2019 Of course this to be taken with a grain of salt as nothing is official until Nintendo decides to release more information about the game as well as the release date.

Nintendo saved us a most delightful surprise at the end of their Nintendo Direct for E3 2019. They announced that a new Legend of Zelda game is in development and it’s a full sequel to Breath of the Wild for Nintendo Switch. See below for some awesomely creepy screenshots of the trailer.
What we see in their sneak-peek trailer is Zelda (with short hair) and Link riding down to some caverns beneath Hyrule Castle. It appears that the Malice, a poisonous substance unleashed by Calamity Ganon, is back again and coming from a most sinister source. We see a mummified ancient character awakening with the help of an ethereal green hand. Afterward, we pan out to a rumbling earthquake and Hyrule Castle beginning to rise.
All we can do is speculate for now as to what exactly this new story will be about but it is most definitely in the same open-world with the same beautiful graphics from the first Breath of the Wild game back in 2017. Normally Zelda games don’t get direct sequels but this one in particular is regarded as one of the best games of all time.
We here at myPotatoGames are incredibly excited for this sequel and will continue to keep you updated as we receive more news. For now you can check out our article on Link’s Awakening which also got a new trailer from Nintendo’s Direct.

[dropcap]Z[/dropcap]elda: Breath of the Wild will soon receive it’s first DLC. The expansion pass will bring two major updates. The first one being released this summer, while the second pack is going to be released this holiday season. Nintendo has just announced some new details about the Zelda: Breath of the Wild Expansion pass. The first part of the expansion pass will include the new Trial of the Sword, in which you can encounter enemies in 45 different rooms. If you complete this, the Master Sword will remain in it’s glowing form forever.
You can read the details about the Master Trials DLC below. If you didn’t buy the pass yet, you can do so here
.
- Trial of the Sword: By accessing this location, players can challenge the new Trial of the Sword (previously known as “Cave of Trials Challenge”), where enemies appear one after another. Link starts without any armor or weapons, and if he defeats all of the enemies in the room he can proceed to the next area. Trial of the Sword will include around 45 total rooms for players to complete. When Link clears all of the trials, the true power of the Master Sword will awaken and always be in its glowing powered-up state.
- Hard Mode: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is already considered one of the most thrilling games in The Legend of Zelda series, and fans looking for a challenge are in for a treat with the new Hard Mode. In Hard Mode, the “ranks” of enemies in the game are increased (i.e. Red Bokoblins change to Blue), and players might even encounter higher-ranking enemies they wouldn’t find through normal play. Enemies will also slowly recover health in battle, forcing you to defeat them more quickly. They will also more easily spot Link as he approaches them, making these enemies tougher to sneak up on. In addition, floating planks held aloft by balloons will be scattered around Hyrule. By successfully reaching these planks, players can battle enemies and collect treasure.
- Hero’s Path Mode: Exploring Hyrule is exciting, but with such a large world it’s sometimes hard for players to remember where they’ve been. To help with tracking progress, the new Hero’s Path Mode will document every step players take, and mark their path in green on the map. The route taken will be tracked for the player’s last 200 hours of play time, with an included slider to track footsteps on a timeline. This even works retroactively, so players that have already put many hours into the game will be able to see where they have traveled. This feature will help in identifying the locations they haven’t visited in this vast world, and may help players find those Shrines they haven’t encountered yet.
- Travel Medallion: There will be a new treasure chest somewhere in the game world which contains the Travel Medallion. With the Travel Medallion, players can create a temporary new travel point on the map where they are currently standing. Link can then transport himself to that point at any time. Only one travel point can be registered on the map at a time.
- Korok Mask: By finding the new Korok Mask, players will have a much easier time finding Korok locations in the game. When equipped, the mask will shake, indicating that a Korok is hidden somewhere nearby.
- New Equipment: Eight new pieces of equipment inspired by previous characters and games in the series will be added to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild after downloading the first DLC pack. Once discovered by the player, they will yield equipment themed after fan-favorite games and characters such as Midna, Tingle, Phantom and Majora’s Mask.
