Releasing in Japan on June 26, 2025
Word has it thatHyrule Warriorslaunches for Wii U in Japan on August 03, 2025. That comes direct fromFamitsuand there’s of course no news on a Western date yet. However, some bits and pieces have been translated, such as the game’s inclusion of “unexpected” playable characters. There’s an image of Impa in the article! Maybe Impa is among them?
This is being developed byDynasty Warriors‘ own Omega Force under the supervision of long-timeLegend of Zeldaseries producer/director Eiji Aonuma. According toFamitsu, Team Ninja head Yosuke Hayashi is working onHyrule Warriorsas a producer alongside Hisashi Koinuma.
I’m strangely hopeful for someone who isn’t super into either series. Something about this combination speaks to me and it’s another thing to play on Wii U. Feeling good about it so far, ahead of E3. That’s one sale you can count on, Tecmo Koei. Plenty moreleft to go.
