One of the ‘wow’ moments from yesterday’s Nindies Showcase presentation was the reveal of Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer – a new game from the team behind Crypt of the NecroDancer which is set to feature none other than Link and Zelda.
The whole thing looks fantastic, from its bopping soundtrack to its gorgeous visuals, and it turns out that part of that successful art direction is thanks to a couple of members of the Sonic Mania dev team. It appears that both Midio and Paul Veer – two pixel artists who worked on Sonic’s wonderful 2D outing – have applied their talents to this upcoming game. Both were congratulated on their efforts by Sonic Mania art director, Tom Fry.
We don’t have a release date for the new Zelda goodness just yet, but you can learn more about it here if you need to catch up.
Has this one already been plonked on your Switch game wishlist? More Zelda on Switch can only be a good thing from where we’re sitting.
