Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity - Nintendo Switch

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is an epic action game developed by Omega Force and published by Nintendo exclusively for Nintendo Switch, set 100 years before the events of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Relive the Great Calamity — the catastrophic war against Calamity Ganon that shaped the world of Breath of the Wild — as Link, Zelda, and the four Champions fight to protect Hyrule. With exhilarating Warriors-style combat, a massive roster of playable characters, and a story that expands the lore of Breath of the Wild in exciting ways, Age of Calamity is essential for Zelda fans.

Relive the Great Calamity

Age of Calamity tells the story of Hyrule's darkest hour — the war against Calamity Ganon that left the kingdom in ruins and set the stage for Breath of the Wild. Fight alongside iconic characters including Link, Zelda, Mipha, Daruk, Urbosa, and Revali as they battle the Blight Ganons, the Yiga Clan, and ultimately Calamity Ganon himself across Hyrule's most iconic locations. The story adds rich new context to the events referenced in Breath of the Wild, making it a deeply rewarding experience for fans of the game.

18+ Playable Characters

Age of Calamity features an enormous roster of playable characters — each with their own unique combat style, weapons, and special abilities. Play as Link with his full arsenal of Sheikah Slate runes, Zelda wielding her sacred power, the four Divine Beast Champions with their elemental abilities, and many more characters unlocked as the story progresses. Each character feels genuinely distinct, encouraging players to experiment and find their favorites.

Exhilarating Warriors Combat Across Hyrule

Age of Calamity's combat blends the fast-paced, crowd-clearing action of the Warriors genre with the weapons, abilities, and mechanics of Breath of the Wild. Use Sheikah Slate runes to freeze enemies with Stasis, create Magnesis platforms, detonate Remote Bombs, and unleash devastating elemental attacks. Battle across faithfully recreated versions of Hyrule's iconic regions — from Zora's Domain and Death Mountain to Gerudo Town and Hyrule Castle.

2-Player Local Co-op

Age of Calamity supports 2-player local co-op throughout the entire game — team up with a friend to battle through Hyrule's greatest crisis together, each controlling a different character for a thrilling cooperative experience.
