Just the other day, the official Hyrule Warriors Twitter in Japan tweeted about there being yet another character reveal for the game in the latest issue of Famitsu. Just some time ago, Famitsu confirmed this with a tiny snapshot of the magazine page showing Fi from Skyward Sword to be the new playable character. Check out the image below.
For those unaware, Fi is the helpful spirit that lives inside the Master Sword. She speaks very robotically and tends to make absolutely certain that you know what you’re doing to the point of making Navi look like a mute. We should be expecting a Fi gameplay trailer sometime this week or next.
The magazine spread also shows a new weapon for Link: the ball and chain that was first introduced as a weapon in Twilight Princess. There is also Link and Zelda in their Skyward Sword outfits. Could this mean more costume DLC?
How do you feel about Fi as a playable character? Do you think we’ll be able to glide over the battlefield as if we were ice-skating? Let us know what you think in the comments.
Hyrule Warriors will be released in North America on September 26, 2014, and in Europe on September 19, 2014.
