"Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" will reportedly launch just in time for the Nintendo NX console, which is expected to premiere in March 2017. The game will launch on Wii U and on the NX in 2017.

Since the forthcoming title for the franchise is expected to be one of the gamers' first experiences for the Nintendo NX, many believe that the game will launch in March 2017 as well. However, the developers have yet to confirm the speculation.

The "Legend of Zelda" sequel was originally slated to launch in 2016, but was postponed to 2017. Shortly after this announcement, the developers confirmed that the forthcoming title will be made available to the upcoming game console.

Sources said that the NX version of the game will be more expensive compared to the Wii U version. Although the studio still has not announced the prices, the game is believed to cost around $250 to $500 on the new console.

Some say that the device might not be the best medium for the forthcoming game since it is new. The hardware's initial release might not reach gamers' expectations, reports say. Gamers using the new hardware might encounter a few issues.

In the forthcoming game, players will go on an adventure across fields and forests until they make their way to the ruined Kingdom of Hyrule and find out about its devastation. Players will face wild beasts on their journey. A plethora of enemies will come in different shapes and sizes and varying abilities. Players must tread with caution and strategize before they decide to attack. Gamers must collect ingredients for food and elixirs for sustenance or they can earn them through quests.

The game is expected to have 100 Shrines of Trials. These Shrines are places waiting to be discovered. Gamers need to solve mysteries and get their way out of traps to earn special items and rewards that will be beneficial to the journey ahead.
