According to reports, Nintendo, which is planning a Direct with the new Zelda game in the coming days, postponed this presentation due to the death of the Queen.
As you know, Nintendo shares new information about games with us with its Direct presentations from time to time. These presentations, which sometimes focus on independent productions, sometimes offer new information about the highly anticipated games. Nintendo, which is preparing to sign a special Direct presentation for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of Wild 2, which is highly anticipated in the coming days, has postponed this presentation due to the death of the Queen, according to the news.
Zelda-focused Nintendo Direct presentation delayed
Queen of England II. Elizabeth passed away yesterday evening at the age of 96. Of course, after this development, which is an important news all over the world, a period of mourning prevails in the United Kingdom. This period of national mourning is expected to last 10 days until the queen’s burial. As such, many companies, especially in England, have reduced their activities to a minimum. It seems that this situation will also affect some of the plans of some game companies.
As a matter of fact, according to the news, Nintendo has postponed its Zelda-focused Direct presentation to a later date. It is said that the new presentation, which is expected to be next week under normal conditions, has been postponed a few weeks later. Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb said that the decision to delay the next Nintendo Direct has not yet been communicated to the company’s distributors because it hasn’t been specified that this presentation will be made. This postponement decision is said to be within the company, as Nintendo plans its live broadcasts to be public only a day or two in advance.
