14 DAY TRIAL // The release of the upcoming Zelda and Dynasty Warriors mash-up video game, Hyrule Warriors, is getting closer and closer, and another trailer has been released, this time around showing off the crazy fighting style of Zant, the Usurper King.
Zant was one of the two major antagonists in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and his fighting style looks to be very quick and definitely crazy, judging from the video. Also, maybe a little bit fun.
Zant joins the ample roster of Zelda-inspired characters, being the second playable bad guy, following Ganondorf's reveal.
The game is being co-developed by Omega Force and Team Ninja and blends the patented one-man-army gameplay with the colorful visuals of The Legend of Zelda franchise, thus featuring much more emphasis on combat than Nintendo's previous titles in the Zelda series.
The game's plot follows series protagonist Link, merely a soldier-in-training, attempting to rescue Zelda, the Queen of Hyrule, from Cia, the former protector of the Triforce, corrupted by an evil force.
The game features a generous roster of playable characters, including Agitha, Lana, Midna, Fi, Ruto, Darunia and Sheik, in addition to the aforementioned ones.
Hyrule Warriors is a Nintendo Wii U exclusive hack and slash title, due out this week in Japan and coming to Europe on September 19 and to North America on September 26.
