The artwork in question
The promo, which shows Link scaling a cliff surrounded by mountainous scenery, may have been removed because it appeared before Nintendo’s E3 conference on Tuesday, which will largely focus on the new Legend of Zelda. Further gameplay footage from the hotly-anticipated game, first unveiled at E3 2014, will be shown during the company’s livestream Treehouse: Live event. A demo of the game will also be playable at Nintendo’s E3 booth.
Little is currently known about the game except that it is years in the making and will feature non-linear, open-world gameplay that’s different from previous Zelda titles. There have also been rumors that Link’s female counterpart, Linkle, may make an appearance, though those remain unconfirmed by Nintendo.
Regardless of what new information unfolds at E3, fans will certainly continue to eagerly await this long-anticipated installment in a well-beloved and critically-acclaimed series.
