The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker - News

This epic Legend of Zelda adventure begins with our hero in the midst of a family crisis. Link's peaceful life on a tiny island is shattered one fateful day when his beloved sister is snatched by a huge, menacing bird. Naturally, the sword and shield-wielding hero follows in hot pursuit. His search sets in motion an epic adventure across strange lands and high seas, as Link searches for clues to his sister's whereabouts. Featuring a unique animation style, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker expands on the revolutionary gameplay seen in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask for Nintendo 64, offering a distinctive Legend of Zelda experience. You'll see characters' expressions change as they laugh, cry, or show anger and surprise, with a variety of lively actions bringing them to life. Plus, Link's world has never seemed so atmospheric.
