Priced at $60, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD Collector’s Edition will launch alongside the regular edition of the game ($50) on March 4, 2016 exclusively for Wii U. Officially titled, “The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD with amiibo” pack, this special edition version will include the “Wolf Link Amiibo” in a large collector’s box, with a translucent screen so you can see the amiibo in the box. Pre-order Twilight Princess HD and you’ll receive an additional “Twilight Princess Soundtrack” for free.
Check out the debut trailer for Twilight Princess HD.
Details on whether the soundtrack is a digitial download, or an actual physical CD, are forthcoming.
The Wolf Link Amiibo will not only add new (as of yet unannounced) functionality to Twilight Princess HD, but the Wolf Link amiibo figure will also be compatible with the forthcoming The Legend of Zelda Wii U, which also launches in 2016.
Wolf Link Amiibo Official Description:
“Wolf Link is the legendary twilit beast form of the hero Link. He first appeared in the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess game, where he worked with the mysterious and mischievous imp Midna to take down a usurper to the throne, and to save Hyrule and the Twilight Realm from darkness.”
Twilight Princess HD will be a completely upgraded The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, based on the 2006 GameCube original (it was also a launch game for the original Wii), rebuilt for Wii U, similarly to The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD.
Twilight Princess HD will run in 1080p with high-definition graphics and at a solid 60fps (one would assume), and will also include all-new features, like the ability to interface with all the “Zelda” series Super Smash Bros. Amiibo figures; and will also include all-new Wii U GamePad functionality for menu navigation and other things.
