Nintendo hasn’t forgotten about the game, which received excellent reviews in 2006 (95/100 score on Metacritic).
Fans of The Legend of Zelda are excited after the unexpected tease of the return of Twilight Princess, but it may mean nothing. Released 19 years ago for Nintendo Wii and GameCube, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is widely regarded as one of the best games in the beloved series, so it seems surprising that the big N has quietly done this.
“You play as Link, a farmhand chosen by the gods to free the kingdom of Hyrule from the clutches of the King of Shadows, Zant, who has cursed the land with eternal twilight. To help him face this new threat and break the curse that has turned him into a wolf, Link will team up with the mysterious and mischievous Midna, a creature from a corrupted dimension called the Twilight Realm,” the game’s synopsis reads.

Despite receiving an HD remaster on the Nintendo Wii U in 2016, fans have been clamoring for another modern remaster of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for Switch for years. Recently, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker was announced as part of the new GameCube game lineup for Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, so perhaps there’s hope that this will happen. Fans think so too, as they have spotted beautiful stained glass windows at the Nintendo Store in Celestial Park at Universal Orlando.
Instead of using designs from more recent entries in The Legend of Zelda series, such as Tears of the Kingdom or Echoes of Wisdom, the stained glass windows used art inspired by The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Perhaps this is no coincidence, as the big N doesn’t leave things like this to chance.
Now the question is whether fans will finally get what they’ve been waiting for for years…
