Currently has a May 12 2023 release date. That's just over 4 months away. That's not so far, but there isn't that much known about it.
Here's a video that has the reveal trailer and other info that has so far been released.

Is it unusual for such an anticipated title that's only several months away to not have much known about it?
I don't usually follow games along their pre-release stages, so perhaps a lack of info is standard.
Personally, I'd rather a lack of info when it comes to games that I plan on playing. I don't care for spoilers, or to watch every trailer that comes out.
I'd have thought there'd be more out about it though. But again, I don't usually follow along with the progress of game development.
Definitely a game I'm looking forward to though.

@theJaw - hurry, get it on GameStop, it's back to the $59 price
Do pre-orders charge immediately or when shipped?

Naw, fudge that crap. Last "new" game I ordered from them was open, had a GS sticker on it and arrived damaged. Their CS said "yeah the game is new and arrived like that for theft protection". LOL

Only when it ships, like Amazon.

Also, @theJaw - see the other thread in Hot Deals. You can spend $100 on the two vouchers and save money.
You can buy $100 in credit from pathlesscookies (or Costco) for $90, and redeem for Zelda @ $70 + another $60 game (like Pikmin 4) = saves money -- if of course you're good with digital.
I'll pick up TotK on digital to play and collect a physical.

Friggin bummed about the price tag. Game looks incredible but I just can’t justify dropping $70 on a video game.
I'd be fine with a huge game like this costing $70 if other smaller games (or relatively easy ports) had lower prices. But nooooooo

lol that's trash, but I'm taking my chances here. As long as the game plays, I can find replacement stuff if I need to later on down the line.
@MrBean Thanks for the help pal. I ended up just risking the pre-order at GameStop after all. Appreciate the link, let's hope they don't pull any tomfoolery with the pricing.

Yah I mean, there are only a couple BIG games I get each year anyhow... so if most games stayed at $60 or less, I could put up with it and just wait for cheaper deals on the big ones. That's why I'm happy Pikmin 4 is still gonna be $60 when it drops, but the coming years look bleak as far as pricing goes haha

The game vouchers is now tempting. $130 vs $90...
I'll risk it and wait though... need more info on TotK to preorder. Worst that happens is I pay $70 for what is now a $70 game.

The CE is kinda ... disappointing, especially compared to BotW.
Still salty I missed the first round, was gone super quick.

$130 for what you get with the CE seems awfully steep. Gsme plus a steelbook case, a few pins, a poster, and a small art book... that's it?
I just kinda expect more out of what is probably Nintendo's most beloved franchise.

Available @ GameStop - https://www.gamestop...
I still think there's another edition they're gonna announce closer to, like BotW, a "Masters" edition.

I don't expect it. I just expect a direct to show more of the gameplay. Wouldn't it be weird to show another collector's edition weeks after the first one was announced? I don't see that happening.
I guess an OLED is still possible though.
