E3: E3 2019 -- Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Sequel Announced For Switch

Nintendo has announced a sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is in development. The news was announced during the company's E3 2019 press conference with a short teaser trailer.

Nintendo followed the teaser with a short statement that read, "The sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is now in development." No release date, title, or further details were announced.

The teaser trailer showed Link traveling with Zelda herself on horseback. The video featured some eerie music and a stunning landscape similar to the one seen in the original game.

The first game was released as a cross-generation launch title for the Nintendo Switch. It received universal acclaim, including a 10/10 in GameSpot's Zelda: Breath of the Wild review. Our critic, Peter Brown, wrote: "No matter how gorgeous its environments are, how clever its enemies are, and how tricky its puzzles get, the fact that Breath of the Wild continues to surprise you with newfound rules and possibilities after dozens of hours is by far its most valuable quality. It's a game that allows you to feel gradually more and more empowered yet simultaneously manages to retain a sense of challenge and mystery--which, together, creates a steady, consistent feeling of gratification throughout the entire experience. Breath of the Wild is a defining moment for The Legend of Zelda series, and the most impressive game Nintendo has ever created."
