Here is Aonuma’s full statement regarding The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 being delayed. After bringing up its new 2023 launch window, he offered a bit of insight into the title. He explained how Link will be exploring on-ground and in the air. In the video, odd markings can be seen on Link’s right arm.


One of the last major trailers for the game appeared back in June 2021. That video featured the 2022 launch window announcement in it.

Now that it is delayed, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 will come to the Nintendo Switch in 2023. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is available on the Nintendo Wii U and Switch.
