Eiji Aonuma Talks About The Possibility Of More Legend Of Zelda Spin-Offs

Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma was recently asked in interview with IGN if Nintendo was looking to pump out even more Legend of Zelda spin-offs between the series’ mainline releases.

Aonuma said it’s really an ‘idea-first’ approach and explained how a bunch of circumstances need to line up before a project like this is even considered.

“we’re always looking for valuable creative projects, but those only come about when several different conditions align. So, I think it’s hard for us to have conscious control over the frequency.”

In the case of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, Aonuma thinks circumstances could “align like this” again, but doesn’t expect it to become a series as such – reinforcing the fact any decisions are based on creative merits.

“We’d make that decision based on its creative merits, just like we did this time.”

Would you like to see even more Zelda spin-offs, or perhaps Hyrule Warriors transformed into a proper series somehow? Leave a comment down below.
