Zelda Wii U: Link Will Face ‘A New Formidable Enemy’

July 22, 2014 by Stephen Daly

Does this mean that Gannon won’t be the villain of the game?

Nintendo's Eiji Aonuma may have revealed that Link will have to confront "a new formidable enemy" in Zelda Wii U, Rev-Level has revealed. 

On the Japanese platform holder's site dedicated to the as yet untitled game, Aounuma wrote (roughly translated) that: 

"This software is the Wii U version of the new 'Legend of Zelda' series. This vast Zelda world is without boundaries and Link will challenge a new mystery, a new formidable enemy.”

Given the final part of that statement, it seems that Ganon may not be the bad guy although it wouldn't be the first time that Nintendo has revealed him to be the villain late in the game if they chose to go down that route.

Below is the original Japanese text if anyone can venture a more accurate translation: 

"本ソフトは、『ゼルダの伝説』シリーズのWii U版新作です。境界なく、どこまでも広がる『ゼルダ』の世界で、リンクが新たな謎、新たな強敵に挑みます。"

Aonuma has previously said that the game will have fewer tutorials than the hand-holding Skyward Sword and while Link was indeed the hero of the trailer, Nintendo is interested in seeing if gamers would be interested in a playable female character after some suggested may have changed sex.
