Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment now has a release date, following its previously stated “winter” launch window.
As revealed at today’s Nintendo Direct, the game will release on Switch 2 on November 6.
This latest in the Warriors spin-off series acts as a prequel to Tears of the Kingdom, focusing on Zelda’s story. Check out some fresh gameplay in the video below. The trailer goes into detail about Sync strikes (special moves used with two allies) and how Zonai devices can be used to modify the flow of battle. You will also be able to play with two players across two devices, even if only one person owns the game. Thanks Nintendo!
Age of Imprisonment follows Age of Calamity, which similarly acted as a prequel to Breath of the Wild.
Both games were preceded by Hyrule Warriors on Wii U (later ported to Switch), developed as a collaboration between Koei Tecmo and Nintendo.
Gameplay follows that of Koei’s Dynasty Warriors games, known for their large-scale battles and hordes of enemies to defeat.
Age of Imprisonment was first revealed at the Switch 2 Direct in April.
