zelda e3Last month Nintendo confirmed that the Nintendo NX will only be launched in March, 2017, and that they will not be showing off the console at E3 2017. Instead Nintendo stated that their focus at the event will be about the upcoming The Legend of Zelda title for the Wii U (and also the Nintendo NX upon its release).

The good news is that if you are unable to make it to E3, the company has confirmed that they will be hosting a livestream on the 14th of June (which is when E3 will be kicking off) at 9am PT. Dubbed Nintendo Treehouse: Live, this is where the company will be sharing details about the upcoming game as well giving players a look at the footage of the game that will be accompanied by commentaries provided by the game’s developers.

According to Nintendo’s press release, “This will be the world’s first in-depth look at the game, which will also include commentaries by Nintendo developers. […] The stream will include game coverage, behind-the-scenes info and plenty of fun.” The game has been in the works for a while now and for a brief period of time, its status was in limbo, but it looks like fans of the Zelda franchise will soon learn more about the upcoming game.

However as Nintendo had previously stated, the game is developed in tandem with the NX version of the game, which means that even though players will be able to play the demo at E3 this year, it is only in 2017 that they will be able to play it in earnest.
