About

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is a hack-and-slash action game developed by Omega Force and Team Ninja and released for the Nintendo Switch on March 22, 2018. It gathers the content of Hyrule Warriors and its expansions into a single version, pairing the warriors of The Legend of Zelda with the crowded-battlefield combat the Musou genre is known for.

The game draws its heroes and villains from across the Zelda franchise, sending them against thousands of enemies at once. It is known for collecting that large cast and its many modes and maps in one package, and for giving the series a louder, more extravagant kind of war than its own adventures ever show.
