The Legend of Zelda Wii U was one of the most anticipated games of 2015, but Nintendo has crushed many a dream by revealing now that it will not be released this year. The game’s launch has been pushed in to 2016, and its makers have not even given us a time frame to look forward to. This extremely anticipated offering was revealed back in November last year, and will be the first ever original Zelda game on the Wii U console.
The producer of The Legend of Zelda Wii U broke the news about its delay through a video which Nintendo has outed. While he had said back in December that the title is well on track for meeting its 2015 deadline, he has now gone on to say that that the development team has been discovering new gameplay possibilities which they’ve decided to explore without paying heed to that deadline. He has said that the team’s priority right now is to make the ‘most complete and ultimate Zelda game.’

This offering is an open world action-adventure that aims to grant players more liberty by letting them decide where they want to go and how to get there. This massive universe can be travelled in on foot or on Link’s horse Epona.
