Figures of the four Champions were already released for Breath of the Wild, but now Amiibo of Daruk, Urbosa, Mipha, and Revali will be relaunched the same day that Age of Calamity is released. Even though it is currently uncertain what purpose they will have in the game, some fans presume that the Amiibo will interact with it in some way. Both these Amiibo and the game itself are available for pre-order as of this writing, and will be available on November 20.
During Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, players will be able to take control of the champions as well as Link and Zelda as they journey through Hyrule. This action-adventure game is being developed by Koei Tecmo, the same studio that created the first Hyrule Warriors, which has similar fighting mechanics based on its popular Dynasty Warriors series.
Since this new game was announced recent, not much is known about Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity at this time. However, more is coming out about the game, including Age of Calamity screenshots showcasing scenes and battles that various characters can partake in. While there are still questions that fans have about the game, Nintendo promised to give players more information by the end of the month.
Even though this prequel game signals a longer wait for Breath of the Wild 2, many fans are looking forward to seeing more than just glimpses of Link’s memories like in the first game. Age of Calamity seems like it will offer great background for the Zelda franchise as it is today, so many are eager to experience this prequel for themselves come November.
