The first Nintendo Live Sydney event is happening this week, and there’s a bunch of great activations including looks at the history of the likes of Pokemon, but it’s the The Legend of Zelda history that provides a very interesting look at the timeline.
As pointed out by friends of the site Vooks, the timeline which has never been seen before places Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom on totally seperate timelines to the two that exist for literally every other Zelda game.
The majority of Zelda games are placed in a ‘The Hero is Defeated’ and ‘The Hero is Triumphant’ brackets, but these are the first in a good wild to not be included in either.
Instead, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom exist totally separately from the rest of the games on their own island.
Obviously, this could just be Ninendo not wanting to place them anywhere specifically yet, but people absolutely love debating the Zelda timeline, so it’s definitely one that is going to stoke the fire
