Nintendo has released a new trailer and a few screens for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, which will be available later this year, along with a few other titles that make up Nintendo's Zelda 25th anniversary celebration.

Zelda designer Eiji Aonuma has revealed a few details about the story of Zelda Skyward Sword in the past, saying that the Master Sword and the Skyward Sword are one and the same.

The new trailer is a good showcase of the game's stylised art style, which is a big departure from the darker, more realistic style of Twilight Princess.

    I'm really looking forward to getting this Zelda title. I just hope that the big N doesn't do the same as they did with Twilight Princess. Launch it on the 2 formats. I bought the GC version and after trying the Wii version, thought it wasn't buying that copy too.

    It would be great for the Wii U to have a full remake of the Ocarina of Time. I don't just mean the same game just in HD either but similar way to what Crystal Dynamics did with Tomb Raider Anniversary.

    The Zelda games don't change much but they're still always very good regardless of this fact. I won't get it because I don't have a Wii, but I would like to play it one day.

    I love the Zelda games, and will be buying this; however, I would have preferred a more realistic art style akin to Twilight Princess. This looks like a cross between Wind Waker and TP, only not as pretty as either.

    I wasn't a huge fan of the art style when the game was first unveiled, but the more I see of it the more it grows on me.
    I think it's far and away prettier than the muddy Twilight Princess.
    This wasn't on my radar, but looking forward to it now :)

    Informally warning you now - make another trolling post and it won't be informal.

    Please, for the love of god, let us turn the HUD off/down.

    I really love the look of this game, but you do have a point. The HUD takes up a massive portion of the screen. Still, Metroid Prime had a bigger one and was perfectly playable, but a reduction option would be nice. And will never happen. :(
