The Legend of Zelda Hyrule Warriors Spinoff for Wii U Launches in Japan This Summer (TRAILER)

The Legend of Zelda spin-off game Hyrule Warriors is heading to Japan this summer on the Wii U console.

Announced on a PDF by Tecmo Koei gaming company, the game draws inspiration from Dynasty Warriors.

The game was revealed in December during a Nintendo Direct conference by Satoru Iwata.

Hyrule Warriors will play a lot like Dynasty Warriors and be sort of an open world mass fighting game with non-stop action. Main character Link will take on hordes of enemies instead of his usual puzzle, strategy, and then fight type games.

Important to note is that the game will follow none of the storylines of the previous Legend of Zelda games and is an original quest on its own.
