Rumour: The Legend of Zelda game with Zelda as a protagonist may be in development

The character Link has been a protagonist of The Legend of Zelda series for decades, while Princess Zelda herself has played a more minor role, and only in some spin-offs, such as Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, she was available as a playable character. It seems that this may change in the future.

Here's What We Know

A YouTuber under the nickname X (formerly Twitter) recently wrote on his account:

"Tears of the kingdom Had a great zelda design I think we are Severely overdue for a game where zelda Is the main character. Seems to me A Hyrule adventure like that Is something fans want, Nows The time."

It is not yet clear whether this announcement refers to a new main game, an expansion for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, or a spin-off, fans are eagerly awaiting details.

PapaGenos has a good track record, as it has previously announced the unexpected shadow release of the Metroid Prime remaster during the Nintendo Direct. As always, it is better to approach such news with a healthy dose of scepticism.
