The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom may be gone for over a week now, but there’s still plenty of excitement and discussion surrounding Nintendo’s latest game. However, you may be interested to know that, if things had gone to the original plan, this commotion and discussion would have taken place a year ago.
You see, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma recently spoke to The Washington Post about The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. In the interview, he revealed that the game was supposed to be released last year. In fact, by the time March 2022 rolls around and the delay is announced, the game is pretty much complete. However, Aonuma said they delayed it because they “wanted to make sure everything in the game is 100 percent to our standards”. The last year has been spent polishing the game and making sure the game’s “wild physics just work”.
