In 2017, Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was rightly awarded Game of the Year for its performance to drive players to the then-developing Nintendo Switch and truly expand on the universe with a newly unique experience for the series. But what was to come next from the firm was not properly shared until 2019 that Nintendo spared there is a follow-up for the highly-received title.

In that, a teaser trailer was revealed sharing that a definite follow-up is in development. Only sharing the platform – Nintendo Switch, of course – there was no way of determining when the game would arrive. However, claims have come recently which disclose voice actors for the project are finished – presuming the release is on the horizon for an announcement.

The report comes from GameReactor.es where the outlet spoke Spanish voice actors Marc Navarro and Nerea Alfonso and concluded that the voicing portion of the production is officially done. However, on the Un café con Nintendo podcast, Nintendo confirms that the claims are not legitimate.

 

“We are surprised by the way the many media outlets have covered the interview, jumping to incorrect and out-of-context conclusions with no consideration to the persons implicated,” the firm responds on the matters. Regarding the project itself, there was no additional comment in the response that answers when the highly-anticipated sequel will officially arrive or how close development is close to being finished.

Taken from the comment, it is presumed that work on the follow-up entry is still deep in development looking that Nintendo had to make the comment on the matters that quickly picked up traction from large media outlets. But looking that Nintendo is preparing to launch a new project later this month, it might be sometime until we hear more.

Later this month in July Nintendo will be officially releasing the long-awaited new installment for Paper Mario, The Origami King. Looking that the company prefers to space releases, it is suspected we will not see news regarding The Legend of Zelda sequel until well after July at the earliest. You can read the announcement for the Paper Mario title by heading here.

Will you be able to sit patiently for Nintendo to share new information on the Breath of the Wild sequel?

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 is listed for Nintendo Switch.
