Recently, the second and final DLC for Breath of the Wild was released. The game is now complete and there is (as far as we know) nothing new coming in the field of DLC.
A question that many fans have is what’s going to happen next with The Legend of Zelda franchise. Nintendo currently has no plans for the future of the series they want to express.
Fortunately, the director of Breath of the Wild, Hidemaro Fujibayashi and producer Eiji Aonuma certainly have plenty of ideas about the future of the series.
Hidemaro Fujibayashi had the following to say:
“I can’t say at this point if it will be in sequels or in continuations, or what form it will take, but I definitely have lots of ideas and lots of motivation right now.”
“I think while we were working on both the main game and the DLC, it was a process of constantly getting lots of different, new ideas as we refined the game, and finding new things we wanted to do. Even in situations like this, talking to people and finding out that people want to pet dogs gives me a lot of motivation, a lot of ideas for things we could put into the game.”
The producer of The Legend of Zelda franchise Eiji Aonuma had to add the following:
“What we learned from the DLC this time around is that it’s almost like raising the world or enhancing the world. In the past, we always had to start from zero again, to completion. Usually we’d be thinking, ‘oh, I wish we could add this, we could do that.’ What we couldn’t do in that game, we would start fresh in a new game. But because we did a DLC, we realized it’s a great way to kind of just improve that world, and kind of enhance it, and kind of raise it like your own child.”
What do you think? What direction should The Legend of Zelda to go in?
