Nintendo has announced the name of the next long-awaited game in one of its bestsellers – The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It will be available on May 12. From the report: Originally created by former Nintendo general manager Shigeru Miyamoto, the Zelda series has long been iconic among game fans around the world and in the US, the Japanese company’s largest market. The last game in the series, Breath of the Wild, was released in tandem with the Switch’s debut in March 2017. The game helped boost sales of the gadget, with more than 27 million copies sold so far. Earlier this year, Nintendo delayed the release of the next installment in the Zelda series until 2023, which sent its shares tumbling. The news was the highlight of a 45-minute video presentation that talked about Nintendo’s upcoming titles this fall and next year. Other announcements included Fire Emblem: Engage, Octopath Traveler 2 and Pikmin 4 coming in 2023. Miyamoto announced that the movie Super Mario Bros. with Chris Pratt as the voice of the iconic Italian plumber, will be released in the spring. .
