Interestingly, Zelda Universe also tweeted out asking fans if they think Eiji Aonuma will appear in the upcoming Direct. Eiji Aonuma works as the project manager of The Legend of Zelda series. One user replied,” I think he’ll be here and he’ll say BOTW 2 is on track for 2022 but they’ll wait until June to fully reveal it. To keep us waiting we’ll finally get those Zelda Wii U remasters.”
