When is the Next Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Trailer?
- Thursday, April 13, at 7:00 a.m Pacific, 10:00 a.m. Eastern.
The second trailer for the game was released just a couple of months ago on February 8. Though between the two trailers and the ten minutes of gameplay, fans still have very few details on Tears of the Kingdom's story, leaving many fans to speculate that Nintendo will finally dive into some of the game's overall narrative in tomorrow's footage.
It is known that it appears Ganondorf will be resurrected in some form as was teased in the very first trailer which debuted at E3 2019. Princess Zelda also appears to be in peril and may need rescuing. Link's arm appears damaged or modified which leads to his new abilities detailed in Aonuma's recent gameplay demonstration. And in that same demo, a defeated enemy drops an item called a Zonai Charge, hinting at a more prominent role for the mysterious tribe that was alluded to frequently in Breath of the Wild but never actually seen.
Despite not being available for another month, the follow-up to one of the highest-rated games of all time is already receiving accolades. Tears of the Kingdom was nominated, and won, the award for The Most Wanted Game and The Most Anticipated Game at the 2022 Golden Joystick Awards and Game Awards respectively. Many anticipate that a nomination for the 2023 Game of the Year is likely in the title's future.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom releases for Nintendo Switch on May 12.
