Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity Gameplay Footage Revealed, Young Impa Confirmed Playable

Koei Tecmo revealed some new gameplay footage of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity during its Tokyo Game Show 2020 Online showcase. The gameplay will look very familiar to fans of Musou games and Breath of the Wild as Link engages with hordes of foes on the plains of Hyrule. Check it out below (from 1:23:51 onwards).

A new trailer was also released, offering a look at Impa at a younger age. As a Seeker, Impa serves as an aide to Hyrule Castle and is friends with Zelda. As a playable character, she relies on Sheikah techniques like explosive tags and temporary clones. It’s a fairly interesting playstyle that will remind one of the Yiga Clan’s troops.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity releases on November 20th for Nintendo Switch. It’s set 100 years before the events of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild with Link, Zelda and the Champions battling against Calamity Ganon’s forces. Stay tuned for more details en route to its release.
