A bunch of trailers have been released to excite players for the upcoming "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild." Each trailer show different aspects of the game that players will expect in the final release.

According to Polygon, one trailer showed the game's night and day cycle, noting on the details of the environment no matter what weather is on. The trailer first showed a nice normal warm day, and then the scene gradually degraded to a dark thunder storm, which also gradually returned to the pleasant weather once again.

Earlier during the 2016 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) back in June, Nintendo was able to fully explain how the system works in the game. The demonstration was a detailed one which, in summary, mentioned that the entire day in the game takes less than 24 minutes, which may imply that a minute in-game is like an hour in real life.

For other related news, Gamespot also featured the game's explorative aspect. Footage of that showed Link exploring the vast landscapes of Hyrule. Players can also stumble across ruins and other landmarks, as well as interact with the environment climbing trees, jumping into lakes and swimming and even navigating with a raft. There were even scenes of the footage where Link was paragliding. This goes to show that the new "Legend of Zelda" game has evolved into something akin to "Skyrim" or any open-world game to date.

Other trailers also show the variety of weapons used by Link, as well as different ways in combatting enemies. Whether it's using a bow from afar, clubbing enemies to a pulp, or just simply donning the sword and shield kind of combat, there are numerous ways for players to get through conflict in the game - and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

With all these teasers and previews, it is still yet unknown on when the game will be released exactly. But, one thing's for sure, "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" will be released exclusively for the Nintendo consoles such as Wii U and the upcoming Switch on 2017.

Here are the gameplay video footages:
