The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was the last mainline entry in the series. Since its release, fans have been wondering what is next for the legendary franchise, beyond, of course, the recent spin-offs and remake. While it certainly feels as if Nintendo is gearing up for a future of ports and remakes, at least for the time being, it also clearly has its attention focused on the next big game, the one to dethrone Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom and flourish in a way remakes simply cannot.
Fortunately, among many discussions about the future of the Zelda franchise, Nintendo has officially teased the kind of experience fans can expect after Tears of the Kingdom. This wasn't merely a conversation about the next Zelda game, whatever that may be, but the next mainline title, the big-budget game that sees Nintendo throw everything at the wall and attempt to push the series forward, much in the same way it did with Breath of the Wild nearly a decade ago.
With new TotK projects still releasing today, it is no surprise that Nintendo hasn't quite moved on from the Wilds era or indeed announced...
