Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is a game for the Nintendo Switch 2. It's a distant prequel to The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom with the gameplay of Hyrule Warriors. It takes place after Princess Zelda is transported back in time to the time of the Zonai.

Plot[]

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is set in the ancient past of Hyrule during the Era of Myth, a time period so distant that the veracity of its recorded events are uncertain. It follows Princess Zelda's journey in the past as she meets with her ancestors, King Rauru and Queen Sonia, who welcome her to the Ancient Hyrule Castle atop the Great Plateau. While Zelda learns to control her powers over Time, the Gerudo King Ganondorf attacks, beginning the Imprisoning War documented in the ancient records of the Royal Family of Hyrule. To combat Ganondorf's army of Monsters, Rauru appoints the leaders of the various peoples of Hyrule as Sages, granting each of them a Secret Stone that amplifies their abilities.
