'Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment's Best New Feature Is A Star Fox Game In Disguise

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment's Standout Feature

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is a notable collaboration between Koei Tecmo and Nintendo, delivering several surprising elements. Having played many “Warriors” games before, I expected a familiar action experience, but this title offers something special: it includes a mini Star Fox-style flying and shooting segment, the closest to a new Star Fox game in almost ten years.

Game Mechanics and Storyline

The game follows the same action-packed formula as its predecessor, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, presenting a prequel tale to The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It acts as both a continuation and an enhancement of Age of Calamity by refining systems and incorporating new elements from Tears of the Kingdom.

Plot and Setting

Age of Imprisonment reveals the story of the Imprisoning War against Ganondorf, events leading up to Tears of the Kingdom. The narrative is set entirely in the distant past, focusing on Princess Zelda’s interactions with King Rauru and Queen Sonia.

“There’s basically a mini Star Fox game in your Warriors game.”

Summary

This game blends intense action with a surprisingly nostalgic flight shooting mode, crafting one of the most compelling Warriors titles in years while enriching the lore of Tears of the Kingdom.
