The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Box Art and Bundle Reveal

By Matt Mann / August 29, 2011

Nintendo today for the first time showed the final box art for Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. In addition, the bundle that includes the golden Wii controller was also shown off (Nintendo wants fans to know the controller is not actually made of gold, in case you didn't know). Nintendo is also giving fans a bonus 25th Anniversary Zelda soundtrack that will be included in the initial release for both the Standard edition and Special edition.

"select orchestral arrangements of iconic music spanning the history of the franchise which will be performed at The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert performances in October 2011."

The Standard edition will retail for $49.99 US dollars and the Special edition with the gold controller will set you back $69.99 US. I honestly don't know what to think about this game, from everything I have seen and heard it could be more of the same; but I am still holding out hope that Nintendo comes through with a Zelda game that challenges the best games they have ever made. Release Date: EU November 18th, US November 20th
