Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 is going to be the best game ever made – Reader’s Feature

A reader takes an optimistic view of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2, based on the fact that Nintendo clearly isn’t rushing the game.

When I saw the new trailer for Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 titled ‘Launch timing update’ I knew it wasn’t going to be good news. Technically that could mean they were just announcing the date, but the ominous black thumbnail seemed to make it clear that another delay was looming. And that’s exactly what happened. A massive delay too, that might mean the game isn’t coming out till this time next year.

It’s disappointing, of course, especially as I’m not very interested in anything else Nintendo has planned at the moment (especially if they don’t release Advance Wars), but at the end of the day they’re doing the opposite of someone like EA with Battlefield 2042, and saying that the most important thing is not making the release date but ensuring the game is a high quality as possible.

That’s more important than ever now, because not only has Nintendo not had a big release in a while but the Switch is starting to get old. And while the first Breath Of The Wild is still widely held to be the best game ever made, Elden Ring is clearly a contender and quite a similar game in many ways. So there’s a lot to prove, but I think Nintendo knows that and are planning to go all out.

The constant delays are obviously partly due to the pandemic but they’re also very common for Nintendo games that were originally planned to be expansion packs or spin-off style sequels. Zelda: Majora’s Mask was the same and so was Super Mario Galaxy 2, which was originally just supposed to be an expansion but then turned into one of the main rivals for title of best game ever.

So, despite us knowing almost nothing about the sequel
