From the day of its release, the Super Mario Bros. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/super-mario-bros/] movie broke several records. Fans and critics alike are stating this movie to be the prime example of the upliftment of the video game adaptation curse. Following its success, a list of other video games is looking hopeful to get a successful movie of their own. The recent addition to this list is The Legend of Zelda [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/the-legend-of-zelda/]. A Zelda movie might be hoping to replicate the success of the movie of its fellow Nintendo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nintendo/] title. Furthermore, judging by the success the recently released Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom/] is having, they are not wrong to hope so. NINTENDO’S EIJI AONUMA IS INTERESTED IN THE LEGEND OF ZELDA MOVIE While giving an interview with Polygon [https://www.polygon.com/legend-zelda-tears-kingdom/23720150/zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom-abilities-eiji-aonuma-hidemaro-fujibayashi], Eiji Aonuma was asked about their plans for a Zelda movie. With the recent success of Super Mario Bros., the Zelda project manager was ready for such plans. However, it was not his sole decision to make. He said, “I have to say, I am interested. For sure. But it’s not just me being interested in something that makes things happen, unfortunately.” [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/eiji-aonuma-unboxing-zelda-breath-of-the-wild_feature.jpg] Tears of the Kingdom director Hidemaro Fujibayashi also backed up his interest. But Fujibayashi wanted fans to be the ones to voice their demands for a movie. “Maybe the voice of the fans is what’s important here,” he said. Upset on Finding a Much Loved Feature Missing From the Title [https://www.essentiallysports.com/esports-news-thats-it-im-not-buying-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom-fans-are-upset-on-finding-a-much-loved-feature-missing-from-the-title/] With both higher-ups of the Zelda series ready for the prospect of The Legend of Zelda movie, maybe the decision for a movie would not face many roadblocks. AONUMA’S DREAM OF A ZELDA MOVIE MIGHT BECOME A REALITY SOON Shigeru Miyamoto, the creator of Super Mario Bros., earlier teased about laying a foundation for future movie adaptations for Nintendo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/esports-news-super-mario-bros-creator-shigeru-miyamoto-positive-on-laying-foundation-for-future-movie-adaptations/]. His words can give support to Aonuma’s dream for a Zelda movie. Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Legend-of-Zelda-7.jpg] However, fans would have to wait for a while to know more about what the Nintendo title will be getting a movie next. But with the number of requests flying around for a new movie, maybe The Legend of Zelda would have a better shot at getting one soon.

<h3>The Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild - History, Gameplay, and 2023 Update</h3>
The Legend of Zelda is one of the most well-known video game series, with a strong history that started 37 years ago. The Legend of Zelda, usually known simply as Zelda, is a Nintendo action-adventure franchise that began in 1986. The series has had over 19 installments, with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild being the most well-known.

The 2017-released game is a Nintendo exclusive, as are other Zelda titles. It was the final Zelda title on the Wii U and the first one available on the groundbreaking <strong><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/nintendo-switch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Switch</a></strong>. BOTW follows an amnesiac Link who is on the journey to save Princess Zelda while also protecting the Hyrule Kingdom from Calamity Ganon.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9">The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Gameplay</h2>
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild stays an action-adventure to its core like every other installment in this Nintendo series. Although, there are some other elements like role-playing and stealth, the most mind-blowing features of this 2017-released game were the Open-world setting and the non-linear gameplay.

Because of the above features, fans had a lot of freedom in exploring the Hyrule Kingdom. These features led to the introduction of scavenging mechanics; Link has to scavenge through the Hyrule for resources. In this game, Link doesn't have access to undegradable weapons. So he needs to create new weapons with those resources to replace the degrading ones.

The <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nintendo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Nintendo</strong></a> exclusive also didn't give infinite stamina. So, the amnesiac hero will have a tough time running across or climbing any mountain in Hyrule. If Link loses his stamina while climbing a mountain or swimming, it will lead to his death. But despite these limitations, the game heavily focuses on exploration. So the above actions must be risked to progress in the game.
<h2>When does Breath of the Wild happen in the Zelda timeline?</h2>
The Zelda timeline is possibly the most complex one in the history of video games. The 19 installments in the Zelda series are neither released in chronological order nor are they all set in the same timeline. Instead, there are multiple timelines in this franchise. So when does this part happen in this confusing timeline?

Breath of the Wild takes place after all prior Zelda titles in the series and doesn't have a proper link to any of the three classic timelines. The creators want to leave it to the players to come up with the connection between this and the past games in this series. But having no links will also let Nintendo to further explore this series in the future.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is a hack-and-slash Zelda game released by Nintendo in 2020. This game is set 100 years before the events of Breath of the Wild, serving as a prequel to the latter. But the events of the Age of Calamity diverged from the history provided in Breath of the Wild, resulting in a different timeline.
<h2>What happens after Breath of the Wild?</h2>
This new Zelda saga, which began with Breath of the Wild, did not conclude in 2017. There is a sequel to this Nintendo Switch title which is called Tears of the Kingdom, <strong><a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/esports-news-why-did-the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom-take-so-long-to-release/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">set to release on May 12, 2023</a>.</strong> This next Legend of Zelda game will take up the plot where Breath of the Wild left off.

The amnesiac Link will embark on another journey across Hyrule, exploring the land and skies in search of the strength required to defeat the menacing threat that endangers the Hyrule Kingdom. There are rumors that this nemesis is none other than the iconic Zelda villain Ganondorf, the Great King of Evil.
