The legend deepens with Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, the third entry in the Zelda‑themed Musou series from Nintendo and Koei Tecmo’s Omega Force.
Set during the fabled Imprisoning War — the ancient conflict only glimpsed in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom — Princess Zelda is cast back in time by her Secret Stone. Alongside King Rauru, Queen Sonia, and the Sages, she must rally Hyrule’s forces to stop Ganondorf’s first invasion.
Battle through massive armies in 60fps combat on Switch 2, wielding new mechanics like Zonai Devices and the Sync Strike system, which lets you pair with allies for devastating combo attacks. The game also introduces new playable heroes, including a brave Korok, and expands the battlefield into the Depths, doubling the scale of combat arenas.
Save‑data bonuses reward long‑time fans: carry over files from Tears of the Kingdom or Age of Calamity to unlock exclusive weapons like the High Guard’s Sword and High Guard’s Claymore.
