If you’ve so much as glanced<\/em> at our home page over the past couple of days, you’ll no doubt be aware that today sees the launch of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity<\/a> on Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n

The game mixes the characters, locations and story of Zelda: Breath of the Wild<\/a> with the strategic, hack ‘n slash action of the Warriors franchise. It’s set 100 years before the events of Breath of the Wild, meaning fans can finally see just how all the events discussed in Link’s most recent adventure truly went down.<\/p>\n

With Breath of the Wild being the absolute behemoth that it is<\/a>, you’d naturally assume that a prequel would sell like hotcakes. However, not everyone is a fan of the Warriors gameplay style, so we’re left with a curious release that might divide the Zelda fanbase at launch.<\/p>\n

So, we hand it over to you. Make sure to have your say in our poll below so that we can find out once and for all just how popular the game is with the Nintendo Life community. Feel free to expand upon your answer in the comments below!<\/p>\n
