By some estimates<\/ins><\/a>, it takes around 235 hours to see and do absolutely everything in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom<\/ins><\/em><\/a>. Some folks have already managed that and are eager for more, but unlike with Breath of the Wild<\/em>, you shouldn\u2019t expect Nintendo<\/ins><\/a> to release a major expansion this time around.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are no plans for additional content,\u201d Tears of the Kingdom<\/em> producer Eiji Aonuma told Famitsu<\/ins><\/em><\/a>. The reason for that, as Automaton<\/ins><\/em><\/a> notes, is because the developers reckon they already shoved all of their major gameplay ideas into the base game. Given the massive breadth and scope of Tears of the Kingdom<\/em> and the wealth of possibilities it offers players to solve puzzles, take down enemies and torture Koroks<\/ins><\/a>, the team might be forgiven for taking that view.<\/p>\n

And so, it\u2019s onto the next game, whatever that may be. Tears of the Kingdom <\/em>director Hidemaro Fujibayashi said his team is pondering what its \u201cnext fun experience\u201d may be, but he\u2019s uncertain at this point what that will look like.<\/p>\n

In any case, don\u2019t bank on a return to 2D Zelda games or the format of any pre-Breath of the Wild<\/ins><\/em><\/a> title. “The series continued to evolve after Ocarina of Time<\/em>, but I think it’s also fair to say now that we’ve arrived at Breath of the Wild<\/em> and the new type of more open play and freedom that it affords,” Aonuma told Game Informer<\/ins><\/em><\/a> in May. “Yeah, I think it’s correct to say that it has created a new kind of format for the series to proceed from.”<\/p>\n

It’ll be a disappointment to some that there won’t be any Tears of the Kingdom <\/em>DLC. Still, you might want to start thinking about blocking out a couple hundred hours on your 2028 or 2029 calendar so you can fully experience the next big Zelda game ASAP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
