Possible Breath of the Wild 2 Leak Spreads Rumors Online

An online posting of a Breath of the Wild 2 Collector’s Edition from a somewhat credible website hints at big hopes for Zelda and Nintendo fans. What are the chances this is real?

Fans have been clamoring for any shred of news about the Breath of the Wild sequel that was announced at E3 about a year ago. Finally, a potential leak by World Trade & Technologies (WT&T) might give hopeful fans something to look forward to.

The site listed a Breath of the Wild 2 Collector’s Edition on their site. The posting has of course been taken down, but the URL still gives a good idea of what was posted. The release date was also listed as December 31, 2020. Which would be quite the sudden surprise for one of Nintendo’s most highly anticipated games.

While all of this could certainly prove to be false, there is some credibility to WT&T’s leaks. They listed a Switch version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt months before it actually arrived. Maybe months from now we'll look back at this posting as the first hint.

There have been hopes and rumors for a big Nintendo Direct sometime this month, which Nintendo hasn’t done in about a year. It would be very exciting for Nintendo to reveal more information about Breath of the Wild 2 among many other games in the coming weeks.

Breath of the Wild 2 is coming, it’s just a matter of how long we need to wait. What do you think? Will Nintendo be making some big announcements soon or do we have a lot longer to wait?
