Link greatly resembles his The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword incarnation. Link uses bombs, the hookshot, and his trusty Master Sword against a multitude of enemies seen throughout The Legend of Zelda series.
The most recent game to be released in the main The Legend of Zelda timeline was the well-recieved The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds for the Nintendo 3DS. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds currently holds a score of 91 on Metacritic and was praised for its inventive puzzles and quick introduction of important items.
A worldwide release window of 2014 was given for Hyrule Warriors.
