Zelda titles like the remake of Link’s Awakening and the 3DS versions of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask, the 3DS version of Luigi’s Mansion, and Ever Oasis all have one thing in common. They had been worked on by Grezzo, a Japanese development studio. The company’s CEO and President is Koichi Ishii. Ishii had previously worked at Square Enix until the late 2000s, creating the Mana series and contributing to various Final Fantasy games until Ishii left Square Enix to form Grezzo.
Well, Grezzo announced earlier today that they’re hiring, In fact, they’re hiring for a “medieval” & “stylish” project.. There is one job listing for a programmer, as well as job listings for one UI designer and even an effects designer, the latter two mentioning this project being “medieval” & “stylish”. The listing for programmer suggests that this project is going to use Unity (particularly with C#), VisualStudio, git, redmine, and jenkins.
If I had a wish, it would be a remake of the first two Golden Sun games. I think Grezzo would do a great job with that.
It’ll never happen though.
This sounds like a Zelda game, further cementing the rumours of SS remaster.
I’m not sure Unity is the best engine for a Zelda game considering how poorly it runs on the Switch. Especially when engines like Bezel exist.
Is it confirmed to be unity? Maybe it’s just a nice-to-have thing for the job applicant.
From Zelda wiki: “The Legend of Zelda series is predominantly a [b]medieval[/b] inspired fantasy setting as depicted in the many iterations of Hyrule. As with traditional fantasy, the series takes inspirations from [b]medieval[/b] mythology and tales by featuring elven creatures, fairies, dragons, wizards, enchanted forests, castles, knights, as well as many other elements.”
Medieval setting that’s also stylish. Triforce Heroes comes to mind. As does the rest of the franchise but TH stands out the most. One could argue Golden Sun is those things, too. Same with Fire Emblem.
Could also be something entirely new & unrelated to the ones mentioned. Or even a brand new entry?
