Sounds like it might be a 3DS game. It's too early to get a console zelda, but just about the right time for a new Zelda game.

You can select what race you want to play; each race has its own playable campaign.

Also apparently, the game world will be directly influenced by what you do, because every single one of your actions will have a tangible impact. So if you stop the Death Mountain from erupting, for example, there will be no heat, and the Zoras' cold will allow a freeze to settle over the world.

These two points make me think it's fake.

If all this is true then this would a different Zelda experience for sure. I hope we see some Zelda Wii U news at E3.

Why not? Majora's Mask had you playing as different characters. Personally I love exploration in videogames, something that Skyward Sword was lacking.

Zelda is pretty weak no matter how they do it, I just don't have as much fun anymore with the franchise.

Cool story though if it turns out to be real.

The formulaic way that you play a zelda game was getting old but this is too much. I hope it's not true because nintendo needs to take baby step to change such a beloved franchise or they will risk losing long time fans. (ie Capcom and resident evil)

Am I the only one who felt extremely turned off by the "massive world, a single region is bigger than the entire OoT map". that sounds just too ridiculously big, it will feel like a chore to go through all of that.

So basically a sh*ttier version of Dragon Age Origins with no voice acting, no choices, no role-playing, and gameplay mechanics from 1996?

Ocarina of Time's map was just a big green field surrounded by a couple points of interest. I'm sure one skyrim city and it's surrounding countryside is larger than that.

If that is the next Zelda game, I would cry, and then proceed to not buy it.

Keep your Bethesda trash out of my Zelda.

April's fool?. Honestly, Link must be always a Hylian. How come he can be a Zora or a Goron? Plus the last part seems fishy too.

Well, Link was a Hylian to begin with. He could transform into a Deku, Goron and Zora but he was still a Hylian. According to the magazine, you can start a Link that isn't Hylian.

Hope it's real, The only Zelda game in recent memory that actually stepped out of it's usual comfort zone I felt was Majoras Mask which I thought was glorious. The similarities are already there since basically anything you did in Majoras Mask had an impact on the world around you which I thought cool and different for a Zelda game.

I doubt Nintendo would do this. Sounds like WRPG like Oblivion that has zelda elements slapped on top. I mean that is great and all and I like this but if Nintendo really wanted to make money they would be doing the same thing they do with every zelda game like they do with all their other franchises.

Comparing a 1998 game to a 2011 game, are we?

For it's time, OoT's world felt massive.

Sure, games like Daggerfall were still bigger but TES was not on consoles yet back then.

I don't know. The OOT map was incredibly small. It just seemed big when it came out because there was nothing to compare it to. I wouldn't mind a big map that is filled with NPC's and enemies. I just don't want some gigantic empty overworld to run across between missions, even if it does have the occasional cave to explore.

There is a Zelda game like this already out. It's called the elder scrolls.

I wish the Elder Scrolls offered a different campaign, or even a different experience, really, based upon what race I choose. That would be pretty bad ass.

Its a good game, but its no way in hell deep or complex story wise. Now if they had an origin story for the Majora's Mask, then we would be going places.

The story never had priority over gameplay in Zelda games and some of us like it that way.

If I wanted tons of text, I'd play some old D&D PC RPG...
