Modders add Skyward Sword's Earth Temple to Breath of the Wild
The modding community constantly delivers. Breath of the Wild is a masterpiece, but it’s not without flaws. One of the chief complaints against this stellar open world game is the lack of traditional dungeons. Modders took this as a challenge, and a few months ago they began releasing dungeon-building tools. At first, these tools were only used to make minor edits, but major strides have been made since then. Most recently, modder kreny has released a playable version of Skyward Sword‘s Earth Temple. You can check out footage of the recreated dungeon by clicking below!

The Zelda: Link's Awakening remake has minimal changes, but this classic doesn't need them
Link’s Awakening was near perfect to begin with – and the remake isn’t going to mess with that design. As the old saying goes, there’s more than one way to skin a cat. There’s more than one way to remake a classic, too, as we’re seeing: Resident Evil 2 is big-budget, flashy and generally faithful. Final Fantasy 7 Remake looks like it’ll be more of a modern re-imagining than a beat-for-beat remake.

How an Indie Developer Is Making an Official Zelda Game
Cadence of Hyrule marks a fairly unprecedented step for Nintendo. While it’s fundamentally a mash-up of The Legend of Zelda and Crypt of the NecroDancer, the next Zelda game is still being made by a small, third-party indie developer, and is even being called a “Nindie” by Nintendo itself. As exciting as the announcement is, how the heck did that happen?

Breath Of The Wild Has Been A Top 20 Seller In Japan For Two Years
By now, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild needs no formal introduction. Hailed by many as a masterpiece, the game won several awards, including the prestigious Game of the Year award at 2017 The Game Awards. It beat out PUBG, Horizon Zero Dawn, Persona 5, and even Super Mario Odyssey. Despite this acclaim, however, it may be surprising to hear that the game is still selling massively well in Japan. In a tweet linking to an article to 4Gamer.net, we can see that Breath of the Wild is still in the top 20 best-selling games in the Japanese market.

The original 'Legend of Zelda' has a massive hidden area that one player finally opened, more than 30 years later
A huge portion of the original "Legend of Zelda" was inaccessible to players for over 30 years — until now. The original "Legend of Zelda" for the Nintendo Entertainment System is a massive, open-world game — and it could've been even bigger. That's because the game's voluminous open world was actually cut in half before the game's release; the lower half is known as the game's "minus world," where elements of the game could be tested by its developers at Nintendo.

Twitch streamer plays Breath of the Wild for 95 hours, then finds tutorial
Have you ever played a game for hours or days, only to find a technique, weapon or option tucked away in a labyrinthine menu that radically changes how you play the game, or makes it instantly easier? It can be a welcome feeling, realizing that a difficult task is now made trivial. But it can be equally infuriating, knowing that the hours behind you have been ground out doing unnecessary work.

The Dream's Over Folks, Nintendo Confirms There Are "No Plans" For Zelda: Skyward Sword On Switch
Over the last few days, the Nintendo community has been bubbling with excitement (or in some cases, mild indifference) over the idea of an HD re-release of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword on Nintendo Switch. Unfortunately for those who wanted to see it happen, however, it would appear that no such project is in the works.

Eiji Aonuma: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Will Never Be Placed In The Timeline
Its long and rich history has been much debated, but The Legend of Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma has stated that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will never be placed in the chronological timeline. His reason? Nintendo has enjoyed seeing everyone have their own interpretation of the adventure, and that if they restricted that by placing it in the overarching story, “it would eliminate the room for imagination.”

Video: A Look At The Aliens, Dinosaurs And More That Were Cut From Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
One of the Switch's most popular titles - and one of the most popular entries in Nintendo's 32-year-old series - is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The game is particularly noteworthy thanks to the way in which it breaks away from the norm of the series, ditching features that have been present from the very start, but it could have even further removed from the classic formula, as we're about to find out.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild now the best-selling Zelda game of all-time
Boys and girls, it's a very momentous occasion. With the release of Nitnendo's latest financial results, we now see that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the best-selling Zelda game of all-time. We're talking about a worldwide scale here, where the game has sold 8.48 million on Switch alone. When you throw in the Wii U version sales, which were at 1.5 million as of the last fiscal quarter, at the very least possible, Breath of the Wild is just shy of the 10 million sold mark.

Our #1 game of the year: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Breath of the Wild is Polygon’s Game of the Year. In late February, I boarded a plane to New York thinking about how absurdly lucky I am. “Imagine trying to explain to your 12-year-old self,” I thought, “that one day you’re going to fly to New York to play the new Zelda game on the new Nintendo console — before anyone can buy either of them.”
