Hugely-anticipated The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom launches in mere six-weeks-or-so, and yet, we’ve still seen precious little of Nintendo’s Breath of the Wild follow-up. A handful of teaser trailers, the longest of which has lasted around 90 seconds, is all we’ve been given to date. While some broad details about the game have been revealed, including the return of Ganon, and the ability to travel to the sky and underground, a cohesive vision of what Tears of the Kingdom brings to the table has not been shared.
Well, thankfully, that’s about to change. Today Nintendo finally announced a full The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom showcase, featuring around 10 minutes of gameplay, is coming… tomorrow!
Join The Legend of #Zelda series producer, Eiji Aonuma, for roughly 10 minutes of gameplay from The Legend of Zelda: #TearsOfTheKingdom on 3/28 at 7:00 a.m. PT on our YouTube channel.

Honestly, 10 minutes still seems a little stingy, but hey, I’ll take what I can get! Also, at this point, any time Aonuma shows up with an announcement you breathe a little sigh of relief when it’s not another delay. It will be interesting to see what form the gameplay takes – an edited overview of the game, showing off a full range of new features? Or perhaps a largely uncut gameplay sequence showing off one of ToTK’s more exciting and representative sequences? We’ll just have to wait and see I suppose.
Haven’t been keeping up The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom? You can get pre-order details here and read the game’s brief official description, below.
“In addition to the vast lands of Hyrule, the latest entry in the storied Legend of Zelda series will take you up into the skies and an expanded world that goes well beyond that! Look forward to Link’s massive adventure starting again when The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.”
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom finally arrives on Nintendo Switch on May 12. The gameplay showcase is set for tomorrow (March 28) at 7am PT. What do you think? Excited for our first real look at the game in action?
