Nintendo Switch 2020 Wish List: 10 Things We Need To See
9. Breath Of The Wild 2
This has, of course, been announced for a 2020 release but this is as yet less than concrete - there’s no date, no concept or title, just a tiny clip of cutscene action. With news as big as this, until we’ve got facts and figures, it’s hard to believe.
No one wants Breath Of The Wild 2 to be rushed out, of course. You’re talking about the sequel to one of the greatest games ever made, a modern classic, a hell of a legacy to live up to. If they need to take their time, then take their time they should. What we don’t want is to be teased. For the release date to be floated and then pushed back would be cruel. The Zelda fanbase is a loyal one, and the hope is they’re rewarded with a definitive release date in 2020.
As a direct sequel to Breath Of The Wild, we could be looking at the Majora’s Mask of the modern era, a concept that will most assuredly get most of the world’s Zelda fans beyond excited. It’s a huge endeavour and one that needs to be done right, but after the incredible shock of the E3 teaser trailer, it would be a shame to see the developers drag their heels on the release.
