Rumour: La principessa Zelda potrebbe assumere il ruolo da protagonista in un gioco di prossima uscita

Remember back in the early days of the Lacrime del Regno marketing when we thought there was a chance that Princess Zelda would be a playable character? That never happened (obviously), but if the recent rumour mill is to be believed, then the Hylian monarch might get her shot in the spotlight yet (Grazie, Le mie notizie Nintendo).

This all comes from the Twitter account PapaGenos — not a formal leaker come tale, but the source of correct information on the Metroid Prime rimasterizzato shadow drop and Mario vs. e rimane un'esperienza da non perdere for Switch in the past.

A recent post from this account seems to hint that a game with Zelda in the starring role might be on the way soon enough. Vero, this could be nothing more than a post praising the princess’ TOTK design, but as some in the replies were quick to point out, hidden capital letters within the text spell out “THIS IS A HINT”. Hmmm.

It’s no confirmation — far from it, in fact — but it sure is an interesting idea. What would a game with Zelda as the hero even look like? Would it be a Link reskin or something new? Are we talking about a mainline entry or a Guerrieri di Hyrule-style add-on?

One thing that we do know, is that it all seems pretty unlikely. Proprio la scorsa settimana, Nintendo revealed gli Campionati mondiali Nintendo: Edizione NES, so an announcement of altro game in the coming weeks feels like a stretch too far. Poi di nuovo, the Big N also confirmed that a June Direct will be bringing us reveals a-plenty this summer, so there’s forse a chance there. Probabilmente.

Honestly, Zelda as the main character is something that we’d love to see, but we’ll be keeping our expectations sufficiently tempered for the time being.

Would you like to see a game with Zelda as the main character? What do you make of this rumour? Let us know in the comments.
