Want to take a peek at the opening sequence from the latest Zelda epic, Skyward Sword? Then you’ll want to take a look here…
It goes without saying that, if you want to enjoy your Skyward Sword experience with as few preconceptions as possible, you probably won’t want to watch the video posted below. But if you’re as excited about the launch of the latest Zelda game as we are, and want a flavour of its grand opening sequence, then this particular clip is for you.
The cinematic sequence that will greet players as they fire up the game for the first time, the clip exemplifies everything that’s great about Skyward Sword’s new visual style – more than any other Zelda game so far, this looks and feels like an interactive Japanese animated movie.
The intro concludes with the rather cunning phrase, “A legend that will be forged by your own hand” – a pointed reference to Skyward Sword’s excellent use of the Wii Remote Plus controller. Marvellous.
