Breath of the Wild vs Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity - How Similar Are They? (Comparison)

Does Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity pull its arenas directly from Breath of the Wild or have elements been remade to change how they work in a Warriors environment? Join us as we put the two head to head to see just how similar they are and how much has changed in 100 years

We gotta hand it to Koei Tecmo, they did a great job capturing the original game. Glad to see both Nintendo and Koei working together to create more exciting Warriors games.

"The trees aren't quite one-to-one" After it's been like 100 years yeah I wouldn't expect the trees to be in the same place

Hyrule Warriors Wii U is such a great game, the sequel being a prequel to BotW makes this game something truly special. I can't wait!

[photon_break]

I think it's a good thing that they're tweaking the maps a bit cause that means they have more control over the map design as a whole rather than just throwing enemies into the botw map which probably wouldn't work quite as well

[GrahamTowler]

I can't wait for speed runners to beat the crap out of monsters with big SPOON!!!

[chrispork]

I suppose the fact that they are individual maps based on locations from Breath of the Wild makes sense, because a Warriors style game probably wouldn’t work with the entire map being accessible.

The way Link throws the Remote Bomb in Hyrule Warriors just looks so cool.

I'm so excited for this game but I'm slowly starting to realize just how tragic it's going to be...

- The Champions die
- Link's family dies
- Link is seriously injured and put in the Shrine of Resurrection for 100 years
- Hyrule is destroyed

Yeah... I may need a box of tissues when playing the game...

Its weird to know you’ll ultimately lose in the game.

Can't wait until all these unbroken sections get ported and moded onto BotW for exploration.

For Age Of Calamity I feel like this will be one out of many games where the side games will be canon to The Zelda Universe basically Zelda Hearts.

[mathpc]

The BOTW engine looks a lot sharper here, and I'm pretty sure it's because they made the game with Switch's hardware in mind.

It's not a port.

[eyenuh]

I don't think it was "from scratch" it is way to close. Most likely nintendo gave them the map data and koei edited it from there.

1:17 No not mipha's theme my heart just can't take it...

[Decubitus]

There HAS to be a level about the last stand at Akkala Citadel, and incidentally Akkala's my favorite region in Breath of the Wild so I can't wait to see it.

[Nicolas-gtdj]

Do you think we could get to drive the divine beasts that would be amazing, imagine flying around in the rito one

[TayDaHylian]

I feel like the one thing that has yet to be mentioned is, maybe we'll see where the Great plateau came from and why it's there. Oh, and also how the Colosseum looked as well. Man, the character choices are gonna be mind blowing.

[Matthew_Murray]

Changing the map makes sense an open world map just doesn’t work for a Warriors game. Especially considering this will be more story focused than Breath of the Wild we want a more linear guided experience. Still the attention to detail to make it feel 1-to-1 is absolutely amazing.

[ybsgames]

Looks awesome! I can’t wait to finally revisit BotW Hyrule for the first time in three years.

ok but the way link fucking yeets his bomb at the boko camp
