The long-awaited launch
The long-awaited date is finally here: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Exile will be released on November 6, 2025, exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2.
This action and musou installment developed by Koei Tecmo and published by Nintendo promises to take the legendary war that precedes the universe of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom to an epic scale.
New release with high expectations:
What to expect
Following the previous installments of the Warriors saga, set in the Zelda universe, this new installment generates great expectations: it is presented as a canonical prequel, set in the so-called "Exile War" in Hyrule.
Fans are expecting massive battles, classic heroes, and new gameplay mechanics, all designed to take full advantage of the power of the new Switch 2 console. Spanish dubbing has also been confirmed, further enhancing its appeal in Spain.
What is the game about and what will it be like?
In Hyrule Warriors: The Age of Exile you will step into the shoes of characters like Princess Zelda, King Rauru and other heroes from Hyrule's past.
The story is set in an era prior to the events of Tears of the Kingdom and explores how the roots of the kingdom were formed.
The gameplay maintains the DNA of musou: hordes of enemies, changing scenarios, special attacks, ally synchronization and the Zonnan device (or similar) that alters the battle through wind, water or other elements.
In addition, it incorporates local split-screen cooperative mode and other multiplayer options to share the action.
Interesting facts and information you may not have known
· This installment is the third in the Warriors sub-series set in Zelda (after Hyrule Warriors , 2014 and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity , 2020).
· For the first time, a rarely explored conflict is examined: the Exile War. This means that "previous" canonical events within the Zelda lore will be revealed.
· Although it's an intense action game, its story is considered canonical, something that isn't always guaranteed in spinoffs.
· The estimated price for Spain is €69.99, and it will be available in both physical and digital formats.
· Pre-orders are now open on the eShop from September 2025.
Why is everyone talking about him?
The reasons are clear: Zelda fans want to know "what happened before" and fans of the musou genre seek non-stop action.
With this combination, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Exile brings both worlds together.
The possibilities for historical exploration, epic battles, and the novelty of experiencing a "forgotten" chapter of Hyrule are a powerful draw.
Furthermore, the fact that it's exclusive to Switch 2 adds that extra bit of anticipation for those planning to upgrade their console.
Recommendations before playing
If you are interested in the launch, you should mark November 6, 2025 on your calendars.
Make your reservation as soon as possible if you want exclusive bonuses.
If you've played Tears of the Kingdom, you'll enjoy connecting pieces of the lore that were previously just background information.
It might also be a good idea to prepare some storage space, as musou games tend to take up quite a bit of space. Additionally, it's wise to ensure you have an internet connection for potential updates.
Hyrule Warriors: The Age of Exile is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated titles for the end of 2025 in Spain.
With its upcoming release, deep story, unbridled action, and focus on Hyrule's past, it's a sure bet for fans of Zelda and the musou genre.
Prepare your swords, choose your hero, and immerse yourselves in the war that changed the fate of a kingdom.
