2020 is stretched out before us and should be a massive year for gamers.
With next-gen consoles PS5 and Xbox Series X due for release late in the year and a raft of much-hyped games on the horizon, it is going to be a year to remember.
The one game fans are desperate for information on is the next step in the epic Legend of Zelda franchise.
Nintendo’s exclusive title has long been an icon of RPG single-player games. As far back as the Ocarina of Time in 1998, the series has been at the forefront of everything Nintendo.
Breath of the Wild was a key launch title for the Nintendo Switch in 2017 and took the series to another level while maintaining everything that made the games so unique.
