During today’s Nintendo Direct. Satoru Iwata, Nintendo’s President, said that A Link Between Worlds will break free from the series’ usual formula.
Most notably is the news regarding the game’s dungeons. In most Zelda games each dungeon had to be completed in a chronological order. In A Link Between Worlds gamers can complete them in whatever order.
From a certain point in this title, the order you approach each dungeon is up to you. The player can decide how to progress through the story.
To assist with this change in formula, is Ravio’s Shop. This shop will have most of the game’s items for sale near the game’s beginning. Usually items are found within the dungeons, so this again a significant change from the Zelda formula. This news was slightly hinted at earlier this year.
What do you think about these changes to the formula? Are you more excited for the game now? Let us know in the comments.
