From a daily bonus and amiibo registration, to the incredible interactive map. And of course, we…

Everyone’s favorite game show Zelda’s Percentages returns this week! The premise is simple: we make a statement and then assign a percentage on how likely to be true that statement is, and this week, it’s even easier, as every questions “______ will be a playable character in Age of Imprisonment“. We go over some shoes ins, like Ganondorf or Sonia, to some borderline plausible characters, like Twinrova or Master Kohga, to some far out there longshots, like Din, Farore, and…

After a few hectic weeks of non-stop news about the Switch 2, we’re finally settling into more of a calmer week, as we have a nice and chill time answering some of the Zelda Dungeon writing team’s Daily Debates!

We catch everybody up on the latest happenings, and then finally jump into the Age of Imprisonment trailer to dissect who we might be playing as, what details we can discern from the footage, and if we believe Nintendo that this time, the Hyrule Warriors story will be canonical or…
