Legend of Zelda’s Breath of the Wild Sequel Officially Postponed to 2023

The highly anticipated Legend of Zelda sequel Breath of the Wild has now been pushed back to 2023. The game was originally scheduled to release in 2022, but according to the latest announcement from Nintendo’s Eji Aonuma, the game’s launch has been pushed back to 2023.

The developer has yet to share the title of the upcoming sequel as it hinted at the fact that it might reveal too much about the game’s story. Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild is one of the most successful games on the Nintendo Switch, receiving universal acclaim from fans and critics alike.

Sequel to the game has always been one of the most exciting projects, but it looks like it will be a while before we see more of the game.

Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild: fans will have to wait until 2023

The game will now release in the spring of 2023, which is quite far away. Aonuma was the producer of the Legend of Zelda series, also sharing that the game will have an extra layer of interactivity as most of the game will take place in the sky above as well as on the ground below.

This opens up all sorts of combat and exploration options in a game that already feels pretty expansive. The open world of Breath of the Wild has been one of the amazing developments in modern gaming, and it will be interesting to see how developers up the ante now that the skies are also open to exploration.

The Legend of Zelda sequel Breath of the Wild is set to be one of the most high-profile launches in gaming history, and so it makes sense for Nintendo to try and achieve a high level of polish. Details about the game are still scarce, but more will likely be revealed by the end of 2022.
