Nintendo Switch Online has announced five new classic titles joining its services this month.
Although this isn’t theThe Legend of Zeldareveal we were hoping for – sorry,Wind Wakerfans – we can play the 2000s titleThe Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past Four Swords. It’s a healthy start.

Naturally, this reveal has sent fans into a joyous hyped up frenzy. In the words of one fan, “THIS RIGHT HERE!!!!Perfect Dark,Turok, andMetroid Zero Mission! What a fantastic combo.”
These “very solid titles” have us excited to see what other Game Boy and NES adventures will eventually join the service… though we suspect we’ll have to wait for the next Direct for the selection to be this good.
For those of you who long for a newer Zelda story, it turns out that Nintendo has been cooking a new adventure for us. In a surprising twist of fate, this particular journey is going to focus on Princess Zelda herself rather than Link.TheLegend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdomis due to launch later this year on 26 September.
We can’t wait to see what Zelda will get up to. What better way to prepare for those new challenges than to explore the challenges of classic experiences? Easily harder to beat than new titles, there’s a lot to sink your teeth into, even if you’re not a Zelda fan.
