Nintendo announced the third Hyrule Warriors title as part of the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. Titled Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment, the upcoming experience will act as essentially a prequel to The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Players will be able to hack-and-slash through the Imprisoning War in Hyrule’s past.
Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment will launch sometime in Winter 2025 for the Nintendo Switch 2, with no specific release date revealed at this time, unfortunately. That said, players will be able to take on the role of Zelda and other characters in the past as part of this experience to hack-and-slash their way through hundreds of enemies on massive battlefields.
The story itself will detail the Imprisoning War that is referenced quite a bit in the main story of Tears of the Kingdom. Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment, developed by Koei Tecmo, will allow players to see Zelda’s time in the past when it launches later this year.
Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment will arrive on Nintendo Switch 2 in Winter 2025.
