The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Yippee a game that can withstand gigantic pressure for being a sequel (at least commercially). Breath of the Wilda game that garnered huge praise, top honors at The Game Awards 2017 and GDC Awards 2018, and is also considered the best ever by Edge.

For many Breath of the Wild It was a turning point for the saga as important as the saga itself Ocarina of Time at that time, so one can already imagine the wild expectations that exist around Tears of the Kingdomwhich was named the most anticipated video game of 2023 at the end of last year.

The last trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomwhich you can find dubbed in Spanish on the Nintendo Spain channel, does not disappoint in the slightest in its ability to capture the epicness, color and even the tragic and sad tone that accompanied the darkest parts of the saga.

That is to be hoped for Tears of the Kingdom retain at least a good part of the mechanics of its predecessor, though we’ll see if it crosses over at the moment of truth. Depending on which version of the story you want to see, Breath of the Wild approximated the formula Zelda on The Elder Scrolls or returned it to its origins, the original title that saw the light of day on the NES in 1986, albeit with the enormous possibilities offered by the dimensional environments and control advances implemented since then.

Tears of the Kingdom It’s probably the beginning of the end for the Switch, which is set to begin the journey of the Big N’s next console, which aims to be the Switch 2, or at least a device that will be very close in concept.

Barring some last-minute setback, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be on the market from May 12, 2023. From that day on, it will be possible to verify whether it is a worthy successor to the mighty Breath of the Wild.
