The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD is a Wii U remake of the Nintendo GameCube and Wii game, Twilight Princess. It was officially announced via a Nintendo Direct webcast on November 12, 2015.[1] It is the second remake of a Zelda title on the Wii U and follows The Wind Waker HD. This remake uses the world orientation of the GameCube version, which is flipped over the Y axis that of the Wii version. A bundle set containing the Wolf Link amiibo will also be released.
Changes and Additions
Graphics
Twilight Princess HD features up-rendered and touched up graphics from the original, giving the game a cleaner and higher-definition look. Several textures in the game are touched up and added more details, with notable examples including Link's hair, Zant's armor, and several background textures. These textures look less "muddy" and blurred than in the original. The game also sports brighter lighting.[2] As opposed to the 480 resolution of the original version, Twilight Princess HD uses the 1080p resolution that is standard on Wii U. This provides for 6 times the number of pixels, resulting in additional clarity, especially for faraway objects and precise aiming.
amiibo Support
Twilight Princess HD will be compatible with the Wolf Link amiibo, along with the Super Smash Bros. series of Zelda amiibo, including Link's, Zelda's, Ganondorf's, Sheik's and Toon Link's amiibos. The Wolf Link amiibo will be able to read and save data from Twilight Princess HD, and transfer it over to The Legend of Zelda for the Wii U.[1] It is currently unknown what kind of features these amiibo figures will have in the two games.
Limited Editions
In North America, Europe and Japan, a limited edition bundle box set will be released, which will come packaged with the Wolf Link amiibo for use in the game. A special pre-order edition will also include a CD of the game's original soundtrack.[1] In Europe, the soundtrack is included in the bundle itself.
