Nintendo today released the launch trailer for the upcoming video game Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

If the launch trailer is any indication, it really seems like fans of both Zelda games and “Warriors” titles will be pleased with the new video game. There’s all the Zelda lore on display married to the gameplay of Koei Tecmo‘s best titles. While the launch trailer doesn’t seem to really spoil anything, it might be worth avoiding if you’re wanting to go into the new video game as unaware as possible.

Here’s how Nintendo officially describes the upcoming video game:

“Join the struggle that brought Hyrule to its knees. Learn more about Zelda, the four Champions, the King of Hyrule, and more through dramatic cutscenes as they try to save the kingdom from Calamity. Play the Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity game to see firsthand what happened 100 years ago.”

The free demo for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is currently available on the Nintendo eShop. The full video game is officially set to launch for the Nintendo Switch on November 20th. The original Hyrule Warriors is currently available on Nintendo Switch as Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition. Notably, a sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is also in development, though little is known about the title as of yet.
