Koei Tecmo has announced that Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment has sold over one million copies worldwide on Nintendo Switch 2, news that was shared in the company’s third-quarter financial results.
Developed by AAA Games Studio with support from Nintendo, the game will tell the untold story from Hyrule’s distant past of the Imprisoning War that led up to the events of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
After a promise that the game would be supported with two free content updates, the first was made available in late November and added new Vicious enemies to defeat to earn additional in-game rewards that include two new weapons, a new Sync Strike for Zelda and Calamo, and more.
We enjoyed our time with the game, concluding in our review: “With Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, AAA Games Studio has masterfully interwoven The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s playfully experimental gameplay systems with its own Musou pedigree. The plight surrounding the war for ancient Hyrule is endlessly captivating, and, while clearly most attractive to lore nerds like me for plugging the gaps in Nintendo’s original tale, the end result is a game that is a legend in its own right.”
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is now available at retail and digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2 worldwide.
