============ GAMEPLAY START ==============

 

01:13:12 --> 01:13:13
- Let’s go 

01:13:14 --> 01:13:18
Oh! It’s even got text like BotW

01:13:20 --> 01:13:22
Even the sound effects! 

01:13:23 --> 01:13:25
Sorry, go ahead with the explanation.

01:13:26 --> 01:13:29
This is a battle in Hyrule field. 

01:13:30 --> 01:13:38
Link and the soldiers are protecting the Kingdom from the monsters of the calamity that have shown up in Hyrule Field. 

01:13:40 --> 01:13:49
In BotW Link was fighting alone, but in this game he can fight alongside other people.

01:13:53 --> 01:13:59
It seems that the monsters on this part have been taken care of

01:14:00 --> 01:14:05
so we’ll be fighting these other monsters over there. 

01:14:06 --> 01:14:10
At this time Link is a Hylian soldier, fighting alongside the other soldiers right?

01:14:10 --> 01:14:15
Yes, he’s fighting with them in his soldier armor

01:14:16 --> 01:14:18
There’s no chance to rest, It really is a Warriors game.

01:14:25 --> 01:14:26
That’s a character action

01:14:27 --> 01:14:33
Yes, there’s something called ‘character actions’ for every character, 

01:14:34 --> 01:14:37
and the actions corresponding to Link are some you’ve seen in BotW. 

01:14:38 --> 01:14:40
Like the bow attack.

01:14:42 --> 01:14:46
You can surf on your shield, like you just saw. 

01:14:47 --> 01:14:50
This is also one of Link’s character actions.

01:14:51 --> 01:14:58
We adapted Link’s abilities to a Warriors game play-style.

01:14:59 --> 01:15:04
- This is Hyrule from 100 years ago, you can see the castle in the distance.
- It’s really there!

01:15:06 --> 01:15:09
- It’s still in good shape.
- Yes, that’s Hyrule Castle before the calamity.

01:15:10 --> 01:15:11
It also has a gate

01:15:12 --> 01:15:14
That’s the shrine over there?

01:15:15 --> 01:15:19
Yes, that’s right where the battle started

01:15:20 --> 01:15:22
it’s the ceremonial plaza. 

01:15:23 --> 01:15:24
We’ll be showing… 

01:15:24 --> 01:15:25
only this.

01:15:27 --> 01:15:28
Let’s go over there.

01:15:30 --> 01:15:32
Let’s show a special skill.

01:15:41 --> 01:15:43
Link’s special skill.

01:15:45 --> 01:15:47
There’s a moblin, it’s an area boss.

01:15:53 --> 01:15:59
When you fight strong enemies, you have to deplete their weak point gauge

01:15:59 --> 01:16:03
and watch for openings to attack them.

01:16:04 --> 01:16:06
- That was also in the previous game?
- Yes

01:16:08 --> 01:16:15
Instead of going head-on, counters and other skills might be more effective. 

01:16:15 --> 01:16:20
By depleting the weak point gauge you can unleash a super powerful attack.

01:16:22 --> 01:16:24
It’s feels so exhilarating

01:16:26 --> 01:16:31
Yes, the battle style is easy to grasp for any type of player.

01:16:35 --> 01:16:38
The location gauge is also from Warriors games, right?

01:16:40 --> 01:16:47
Yes, as you defeat enemies at a location, the location gauge on the top will decrease. 

01:16:48 --> 01:16:50
When it reaches a certain level the area boss will appear. 

01:16:50 --> 01:16:53
And when you defeat it, you can conquer the location. 

01:16:54 --> 01:16:56
(reading text) Dodge and do a flurry rush 

01:16:57 --> 01:16:58
Wow!

01:16:58 --> 01:17:04
After dodging you can do a flurry rush, which will decrease the weak point gauge by a lot

01:17:06 --> 01:17:10
He actually did it in one try

01:17:10 --> 01:17:13
- That’s good
- In the rehearsal he couldn’t do it

01:17:14 --> 01:17:16
That was some perfect timing

01:17:16 --> 01:17:19
The location gauge is now blue, so the location has been conquered right?

01:17:19 --> 01:17:24
Yes, we’ve taken the location so we’ll move to the next battlefield.

01:17:31 --> 01:17:33
That’s the next location.

01:17:34 --> 01:17:38
You can also pick up items? 

01:17:39 --> 01:17:43
Yes, items and new weapons to use in battle

01:17:53 --> 01:17:56
The area boss should be here now.

01:17:59 --> 01:18:01
Oh there’s an ally!

01:18:02 --> 01:18:07
Yes, this is 100 years in the past so we wanted the emphasize that. 

01:18:08 --> 01:18:10
Link was all alone until now

01:18:18 --> 01:18:19
It’s been defeated

01:18:21 --> 01:18:28
The message the right shows your objective? You have to conquer these locations and now you’ve conquered another one.

01:18:29 --> 01:18:35
Yes, there’s also a map on the corner that shows you the places you need to go to complete the objectives. 

01:18:35 --> 01:18:37
Like in the previous Hyrule Warriors game.

============== CUTSCENE ==============

<Impa>
- Help me please!
(ground starts to shake)
- What’s going on?!
(tower appears)
- This is…?

=============== BACK TO GAMEPLAY ===============

01:20:18 --> 01:20:20
Wow

01:20:20 --> 01:20:22
I bet you have a lot of questions

01:20:24 --> 01:20:25
Umm…

01:20:28 --> 01:20:30
I want to ask so many things

01:20:31 --> 01:20:32
That was Impa right?

01:20:34 --> 01:20:36
Yes, looks like it

01:20:38 --> 01:20:43
I want to ask if she has a birthmark on her buttcheek (reference to Paya)

01:20:45 --> 01:20:46
That’s a secret (laughs)

01:20:47 --> 01:20:53
And about the little white guardian, that we saw in the promotional art…

01:20:55 --> 01:20:57
- Seems it was there too
- It’s also a secret.

01:21:02 --> 01:21:10
Being used to a guardian’s eyes being evil, it’s good to one with gentle eyes.

01:21:10 --> 01:21:13
Sorry, I totally forgot about the hands-on play.

01:21:15 --> 01:21:20
For a reason that hasn’t been said, Link can use some of the abilities of the Sheikah slate

01:21:21 --> 01:21:25
Like the remote bombs and cryonis. We’ll try it out with the bokoblins.

01:21:26 --> 01:21:29
Oh there it is!

01:21:30 --> 01:21:31
That was cryonis

01:21:35 --> 01:21:40
You can create a block of ice and attack enemies from the air.

01:21:40 --> 01:21:42
Let’s do it again.

01:21:43 --> 01:21:45
We’re now near castle town?

01:21:45 --> 01:21:46
That’s right

01:21:52 --> 01:21:58
Combining character actions and a sheikah stone abilities gives you many options to attack.

01:22:01 --> 01:22:08
This area boss has an icon above its head.

01:22:12 --> 01:22:14
You attack it like this

01:22:15 --> 01:22:17
You can throw so many!

01:22:19 --> 01:22:25
When this icon (bomb icon) shows, you can launch bombs to attack enemies that have strong defenses

01:22:29 --> 01:22:32
This is how you use the Sheikah slate during battle 

01:22:33 --> 01:22:37
You can throw that many? I was so used to throwing only one at a time. 

01:22:38 --> 01:22:40
It’s like a bomb fest!

01:22:42 --> 01:22:43
It’s the Link from 100 years ago.

01:22:43 --> 01:22:44
Oh no! He’s being attacked!

01:22:45 --> 01:22:46
Trees are also cut down!

01:22:48 --> 01:22:51
The BGM arrangement is also quite good.

01:22:54 --> 01:23:00
Yes, we also received feedback for the BGM from the BotW team.
Some of the music tracks are rearrangements of BotW soundtracks. 

01:23:01 --> 01:23:02
There’s stronger bokoblins.

01:23:03 --> 01:23:04
Yes, these are blue

01:23:08 --> 01:23:11
And that’s something you’re familiar with 

01:23:13 --> 01:23:22
You can use sheikah slate abilities, items, and the environment to attack. There’s many combinations to defeat enemies. 

01:23:27 --> 01:23:29
The market looks so lively

01:23:30 --> 01:23:33
Yes, that’s something that you can’t see 100 years in the future.

01:23:34 --> 01:23:37
It makes me want to compare this one to the one in the future.

01:23:46 --> 01:23:49
If you conquer this location, that will be 2 out of 3

01:23:55 --> 01:23:59
Again, we have a chance to counter the area boss

01:24:00 --> 01:24:02
Ah! That was a bit far. (laughs)

01:24:03 --> 01:24:04
Too far?

01:24:05 --> 01:24:08
You jump and then you use the paraglider to attack?

01:24:09 --> 01:24:10
Yes, you can connect it into a combo

01:24:12 --> 01:24:15
He did succeed on the flurry rush before though

01:24:22 --> 01:24:24
Here’s another chance. 

01:24:25 --> 01:24:33
The enemy was weak to ice, so I used cryonis to lower its weak point gauge. 

01:24:34 --> 01:24:35
It did seem to stop for a bit?

01:24:36 --> 01:24:40
Yes, it got frozen with ice to create an opening

01:24:42 --> 01:24:45
So we’re now heading to the last location

01:24:45 --> 01:24:46
It’s a bit far

01:24:46 --> 01:24:47
There’s a fire wizrobe! 

01:24:49 --> 01:24:50
Those are nasty

01:24:52 --> 01:24:55
I have bad memories of them appearing while climbing.

01:24:57 --> 01:25:01
Yes, and actually, Impa became a playable character

01:25:02 --> 01:25:03
Let’s change

01:25:07 --> 01:25:08
This is Impa

01:25:08 --> 01:25:12
She’s so cute. I had this image of her being so cool

01:25:13 --> 01:25:14
- Yes, 100 years—
- Amazing!

01:25:15 --> 01:25:19
100 years in the future she guides link during his quest 

01:25:19 --> 01:25:27
but this time she can help directly in battle.

01:25:29 --> 01:25:35
You saw Link uses his bow for his ZR attack (character action) 

01:25:35 --> 01:25:43
But Impa uses seals to attack enemies. The more seals the places, the more clones she gets

01:25:44 --> 01:25:47
and she becomes even stronger in battle.

01:25:48 --> 01:25:49
Looks like the Yiga clan’s attacks

01:25:50 --> 01:25:55
Yes, she uses battle moves corresponding to  the Sheikah tribe, like making clones of herself.

01:26:00 --> 01:26:01
So cool

01:26:02 --> 01:26:03
(Impa) That’s hot!

01:26:04 --> 01:26:05
That must be hot

01:26:06 --> 01:26:07
That was dangerous

01:26:12 --> 01:26:14
The attacks are so powerful now!

01:26:16 --> 01:26:20
The more seals the collects, the more clones she creates.

01:26:21 --> 01:26:26
With these many clones you can easily deplete the foe’s weak point gauge in one attack.

01:26:28 --> 01:26:33
The seals also power up your special skill

01:26:35 --> 01:26:36
and you can defeat the area boss

01:26:40 --> 01:26:42
Ok, let’s stop here.

01:26:42 --> 01:26:43
This is the end? 

01:26:46 --> 01:26:48
I’m sure you want to see more 

01:26:49 --> 01:26:49
but let’s wrap it up here.

01:26:49 --> 01:26:51
- That’s it for today.
- That’s it.

01:26:53 --> 01:26:55
Thank you very much!
