Nintendo has released an exciting new trailer for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, titled “Unite Against the Demon King,” offering fans a dynamic look at both the game’s narrative developments and fresh gameplay features.

This upcoming entry in the popular Warriors series is scheduled to launch exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 on November 6, 2025, solidifying Nintendo's commitment to delivering high-caliber action games for its next-generation hardware. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment transports players to Ancient Hyrule, thrusting them into the heart of the Imprisoning War.

Designed in collaboration with Koei Tecmo, the latest installment empowers players to experience large-scale battles through the perspectives of iconic characters such as Princess Zelda, King Rauru, and other legendary heroes.

The "Unite Against the Demon King" trailer showcases Ganondorf's menacing return as the formidable antagonist, with glimpses of his forces plunging Hyrule into chaos.

The game also introduces powerful Zonai Devices, which can be strategically combined with hero abilities to overcome challenging bosses and enemy hordes. Reflecting on the cooperative gameplay features, a Nintendo representative shared that teamwork is key to victory.

Players have the option to join forces in two-player local co-op: either sharing a split-screen on the same Nintendo Switch 2 console or connecting via GameShare across two consoles.

This flexibility enhances the tactical options available, allowing friends to either coordinate attacks together or cover more ground by splitting up across massive battlefields. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment continues the series’ tradition of blending fast-paced, hack-and-slash action with deep narrative elements rooted in Zelda lore.
