 Hey everyone We're talking about breath of the wild to today the sequel Because there's some new information that's been floating out there that actually suggests that breath of wild to is coming Pretty soon a lot sooner than you might expect now before I get into this information and why it all connects I want to remind you we are giving away a copy of monster hunter rise as well as To $20 Nintendo switch PlayStation or Xbox gift cards That's right three winners for this month to enter those giveaways head on down to the description or the pinned comment And click on the link to enter so good luck, and let's get into this amazing stuff so when talking about breath of wild too lately and Speculating obviously on release dates, you know the rumors that I've been out there about to be in late 2021 early 2022 Some people telling me that they kind of expected to possibly be like an end of 2022 game Essentially people are giving it about an 18 month time table sometime in those 18 months to come out So essentially anytime from the summer all the way through the end of 2022 Which is when some people really expected to show up kind of sort of skipping the 35th anniversary of Zelda altogether Maybe because there was a pandemic going on so Nintendo could have lost almost a year of development in there somewhere and Lead to delays like many other games are being delayed. Heck. We just had a leak for Elden Ring occur Which looked amazing, but it was from over a year ago that this you know trailer footage stuff came from and We have no idea how much progress was really made in that game the last year because of the pandemic So we might not even see that game this year despite the fact that they obviously had some footage ready to show to Investors before so what I really am talking about here is when can you expect breath of the wild to to release and We have some information on this that is very very tantalizing. So this comes from well who's becoming kind of a resident Source here for Zelda information in game over Jesse He was on our recent episode in tunnel prime podcast last week. So why don't you go check out that episode and click up here if you haven't seen it yet, here's the thing he has a source that contacted him and The source claims to be a writer for Nintendo of America and he has said that localization for breath of the wild to Has been in the works for some time now for localization to be in the works That typically happens towards the end of a game's development cycle It doesn't mean the game is done per se. Obviously, there's just probably some polishing to do And some other stuff that they might might add but that means the scripting is done and typically when the scripting is done it the whole game is Probably playable from beginning to end at least now when you're in the localization stage at Nintendo of America And obviously localization can take a little bit of time after all there is a number of languages to translate the game into It is usually time to start thinking about getting voice acting done So he has had a number of the Zelda voice actors on his well podcast and other videos Including Sean Chip black who plays Ravalli, Teba and the Great Deku tree Patricia Somerset who plays Princess Zelda and Andy Gibson who plays old and young Impa and then obviously Joe Hernandez as Daruk Man, I love I love the voice acting for Daruk. So the thing is He's interviewed all of these people in the past in regards to age of calamity and breath of the wild and their work on those games And what they're able to divulge and what he learned is for both games They essentially started the voice acting recordings around March of the years That the games were intended to release and then ended in June So it took you know a couple a few months there to get all of the voice acting done Now this is important because well breath of the wild didn't release until 2017 in March they actually had the voice acting done or at least started almost a year prior to that meaning that the game Technically probably could have launched in 2016 if the switch was ready to launch in 2016 Obviously they pushed the switch back not because they were waiting for breath of the wild but because they wanted the launch lineup for the first year to really line up perfectly and Obviously it's between two maybe even Mario Odyssey or other games needed a little bit more time in the oven to really launch a line that lineup So that being said It's kind of cool that that happened and obviously with that happening with age of calamity that means that you know You know cuz they confirmed, you know voice acting was finished up in June of last year age of calamity released You know roughly five months later So that can kind of give you a run up here and they mentioned, you know that hey around the time localizations Being done and almost completed is a is essentially when they start the voice acting. So anything here is if this source for game over Jesse is Correct that it's in localization has been for some time obviously dating back to late 2020 at least That would suggest that they are going to start beginning voice recordings right now Now he's gonna have these voice actors on in the future to interview them But while they're presently doing work for the game, they don't do interviews They also are not going to answer any specific questions about the new game anything They do know because well obviously the first audition around they weren't even sure who they were at the time What gave they were doing it for her till later in the voice acting? Stage they obviously now know the characters are playing, you know, I don't purchase a summer set knows She's the voice of princess Elva now You know, she can't really know if you're working for Nintendo You can't really hide that fact for your voice acting But they're not you know unrestrict NDAs and they're not be able to divulge what when they're recording what they're starting You know until long after the game releases. So at this point, we have to start wondering When is breath a while to coming out? Well, if we look at the timetable of the last two games when they started voice acting recording in March Which is around the end of the time that it took them to translate the game And they finished voice recordings in June and breath of the wild could have launched in 2016 and had a demo that had some semblance of voice acting at E3 It's possible that they're waiting to show off breath of the wild to until they have voice acting completed for the trailer and Well, that would make some sense that that could be one of the reasons why we haven't seen breath of the wild to Sense because obviously the breath of the wild and age of calamity set up expectations for voice acting So it's possible that they wanted to wait to show the game again Where they could show real cut scenes and real story elements that have full on voice acting So this kind of leads you to believe that breath of the wild to could be shown off this summer at some point Again likely in August now I know some people really think they're gonna blow out the Zelda 35th anniversary before then But we have to also consider that Skyward Sword HD is coming out. They're hyping that up It is a game that both Shigeru Miyamoto and A. J. Nomura worked on Shigeru Miyamoto actually came back to the Zelda series specifically for Skyward Sword to do work on it So there is a lot to consider that maybe they want some runway with that game Especially if Skyward Sword if some elements of that are present in breath of the wild to in addition with voice acting Recording possibly being you know fired up this month based on the localization timetable Well, that would mean that if Nintendo really wants to blow this game out They're gonna want to wait until they can include voice acting in their in their media press materials Even if you guys don't care if the voice acting is there Nintendo probably would they're not just gonna keep showing off Gameplay and then not show at least a tease of cut scenes with voice acting They did this with breath of the wild back in 2016. They're going to do it again this year. So What this means is Breath of the wild to the sequel could be ready to go Literally this year. I know there's been rumors out there about late this year delayed to 2022 But it could be ready to go based on the current timetable of voice acting and Localization that we are being told from a source a game over Jesse that it could be ready to go literally this year That is a lot sooner. I think then some people are anticipating I don't think a lot of people are thinking we're getting it this year, right? We have the Pokemon You know brilliant diamond and shining pearl coming out Obviously with legends Arceus coming next year We obviously know about Splatoon 3 coming next year, you know would Zelda make sense in there Actually, I might do a video soon on a Rough timetable on when Splatoon 3 is gonna come which is quite interesting because I think some people Might think that's like a holiday game next year, but I don't think so we'll get into that later But this is to me is just really fascinating And I'm glad that we have Some idea at least of when to expect Breath of the wild to now obviously nothing is official until nintendo announces it There's no official release date. It's still very much might be a 2022 title But if this source is correct, which you don't know, I don't know I didn't vet this source I have no idea But game over Jesse is saying hey look this is what this person said. This is what I know These are the people I have talked to and game over Jesse by the way for those that might doubt some of the things He says he's not right 100% of the time nobody really is except for that weird random leaker on reddit I don't how he has a hundred percent track record beats me because nobody does not even Nate Drake has a hundred percent record Emily Rogers doesn't have a hundred percent nobody has a 100% track record except this weird random dude on twitter Which makes me believe maybe he works for nintendo. I don't know, but what's interesting I think about all of this is that Game over Jesse has actually been really right on a lot of things skyward sword hd before lunch He called it had a source on it was correct Um, you know before it was announced I should say uh stuff that was in the nintendo direct had a source on it Called it was correct. Uh, aja calamity hyrule warriors He was one of the only people in the world talking about that game possibly existing He has been really on top of this zelda stuff to a level that really makes me jealous because well I consider myself to be Somewhat of a zelda expert not quite as much as I used to be back when zelda was literally the only thing I covered Uh and and did for a living as editor-in-chief of a popular zelda website That was literally my job and career at one point. Believe it or not So I I reckon myself to be a bit of an expert Uh, I gotta say that uh He's pretty good with his predictions on this stuff So if he thinks it's coming sooner than you believe if he's kind of setting it up that it's coming this year Maybe you want to pay attention to that All right, folks. I'm the thinner obajance from the tenor prime. Thank you so much for tuning in I'm glad we got to talk about breath of wild 2 today because I'm mad mad hyped for that game I mean what zelda fan isn't uh, except for those that maybe didn't like breath of the wild Then I maybe you're looking forward to skyward hd more Maybe you're looking forward to whatever else Nintendo has up their sleeve from the wind waker hd and twilight princess hd To maybe a possible brand new top-down 2d perspective game.
