What game is this from?

From the scan, it seems to be from Hyrule Warrirors.

Also, from the official Twitter;

I haven't seen it pointed out in this thread (probably in another one) but Shia definitely looks to be another Sheikah. Her dark skin and white hair strongly suggest that. The fact that she has such a large mask makes me think there is going to be a reveal about her. Considering the feathers in both outfits I wouldn't be surprised if she's related to Impa. Maybe they're long lost sisters?

Why does her outfit have to be practical? Shia is a witch. She shouldn't fight physically but instead use spells. The armor that she does wear is probably purely cosmetic. Unlike Impa who is directly engaging in combat, Shia until now was not a combatant but simply balancing the Triforce. It would look weird if she was wearing armor.

I think you may be onto something there I definitely see the similarly

Wishmaster92 · May 22, 2014

They definitely made some improvements since the game was revealed. This might be the best looking wii u game yet.

Definitely looks improved compared to the reveal. I'm guessing the other screens are straight from gameplay then? Impressive

You just want jiggle physics.
Shameless.

.....yes. If her mask doesn't realistically slide, jiggle and bobble on her head while she attacks I'm going to be hella pissed.

Also the parts below the mask.

Shia is going to be the best Zelda character ever. Believe.

I BELIEVE

Bring it on, Zelda Musou.

BishopLamont · May 22, 2014

That 1M prediction might come true after all, pretty good first impressions.

Entryhazard · May 22, 2014

I did already post it in the other thread, but:

I guesse there's no more room for doubt.

The claws, the horns and the eyes on the helmet, the fiery ponytail, definitely Volvagia
also his name is Valga

Strange how he's not wearing his blue scarfy/cape in that artwork. I wonder if he starts the game without it.

I'd say it's the lightning that makes it look better.

Tripon · May 22, 2014

This game looks so clean. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm going to pre-order a Mousou game!

The first thing that came to mind was Minish Cap box art... but Minish Cap it is not. Seems like new art .

Wow. Very interesting. Let the speculation begin!

Here's the full bit for a little more context:

Can anyone translate this?

Chaos17 · May 22, 2014

Isn't that Windwaker, is it ?

Effect · May 22, 2014

Maybe it's the huge Zelda fan in me but I can't believe I'm becoming increasingly excited about this game. I was curious and interested in the game originally but now genuinely excited for it. From the look of the game to all of the characters to the possible story impact on the Zelda lore I'm loving what I'm seeing.

Probably, since he starts of as a solider in-training for the Hyrule army.

Looks like we also have a boxart

(not mine)

NeonZ · May 22, 2014

It seems to be basically Twilight Princess Link and Zelda with a more cartoony and brighter art style. Zelda has the hairstyle and clothes from Twilight Princess, just with brighter colors and blond hair, at least.

Oh cool.

Though I wonder what the significance of the blue scarf is then. It must be more than just a fashion piece.

vareon · May 22, 2014

You know what, if this summer I get a Wii U with this and Mario Kart I'd be quite happy.

Jagsrock · May 22, 2014

The turn around of opinions on this gsme is amazing,almost 3d wolrd esque. Here's hoping this game delivers. The art is definitely beautiful and makes me even more excited for zeldaU. Gah the wait till e3 is killing me.

Really, really hope Nintendo announces a close-to-August USA release date for this at E3.

This game actually sounds really, really fun and I can't wait to stand in line for its release in front of Nintendo World.

Probably a magic talking scarf.

Tom_Cody · May 22, 2014

Chaos17 said:

It's definitely the style of Wind Waker / Minish Cap / Phantom Hourglass / Spirit Tracks; the point is that it looks like original art and it was in the magazine feature for this game.

I'm just trying to figure out what this means.

Good point. I see what you're talking about regarding the Twilight Princess details.

Now I'm really curious.

It's still going to be a dynasty warriors game. It'll be the lowest metacritic zelda game, I bet. (well, maybe outside of crossbow training?) Doesn't mean I don't currently love it.

We already know Zelda looks very similar to her Twilight Princess version in this game (unless they changed it), so it's just artwork for this game.

georly said:
Yeah, it's argorok

Oh man, favourite boss! I really hope Argorok is in the game...

Jackano · May 22, 2014

MagiusNecros said:
Dragon looks like Argorok. Twilight Princess.

NVM, indeed. Almost didn't remember this one (and certainly didn't remember his name) ^^"
Valgia name and design and... hat are still closer to Volvagia so that's two dragons already. Must be a third one, Yoshi or Aquamentus.

I'm guessing this means that the humanoid characters will transform into boss monsters.

I wonder what we can make of Shia (the bird witch lady). No past Zelda bosses immediately come to mind.

Silky · May 22, 2014

Impa looks fucking rad

Lunar15 · May 22, 2014

While I like the character designs of Link and Impa, I remember that this is a Dynasty Warriors crossover and immediately lose hype.

I don't even mind DW that much, but the crossovers.... eugh.

Platy · May 22, 2014

Tom_Cody said:
The range in quality of the character designs is extraordinary. I mean, this stuff looks absolutely amazing:The other two characters look like total garbage but that is possibly my favorite design for Link ever.

Like a friend said, looks like Nintendo helped with the designs of the main characters and the rest they said "meh, do whatever you want"

Chaos17 · May 22, 2014

Man, I wondered where that badass dark mage came from and thanks to Siliconera who gave its name : Wizro. I finally found out that dark make came from Zelda 1!

The Wizzrobe.

Praise the internet.
I would have never knew wihtout the wiki...

Also this fan art:

georly · May 22, 2014

Anyone have a link for where I can preorder the super collector's edition for the US? I want to do it in case reggie lets me down. Tecmo/Koei is publishing in japan, so there's no guarantee we'll get the triforce clock and link scarf in the US. Knowing NOA, they'll hand it out to retailers as a bonus, and not let the consumers buy it

Like they did with the ALBW treasure chests. I had to pay off a gamestop employee to give me his

Marlowe89 · May 22, 2014

Assuming this game even occurs somewhere in the timeline, I'd personally theorized that Hyrule Warriors predated Skyward Sword. That's looking increasingly less likely now.

But oh well. I wonder what the text provided with the Wind Waker esque image translates to.

MagiusNecros · May 22, 2014

Valga seems to wield a spear/lance weapon. So there's that.

I'm pretty sure this isn't a crossover, right?

Soulscribe · May 22, 2014

This looks like it's going to be a complete disaster but I'm here for more Zelda-adjacent games so I'll be playing it.

Could be Roc's Cape.

Helmaroc King fits the best design-wise (there was a pic posted somewhere earlier), despite not being female.

From what I understand the treasure box is only on amazon (in a partnership with Gamecity who seems to be Tecmo-related) and don't ship outside Japan.

The less gloomy premium box is on play-asia (they dropped the price by 10$ since I pre-ordered, frak them!).

MagiusNecros · May 22, 2014

All Zelda characters with some Zelda originals. No crossovers from other franchises as of yet.

Kouriozan · May 22, 2014

Yep, just the Zelda universe with some original vilains.

Lame. All I want is the ridiculous edition one.

Cymbal Head · May 22, 2014

Is it just me or is it weird that Impa has pretty much a full set of realistic-ish, practical (given the setting) armor...with sandals?
