Over a year! 418 days to be exact. That's how long it's been since Zelda: Breath of the Wild launched, and I'm still finding awesome videos. I know I've been saying that a lot lately, and I'm trying to come up with new ways to share t...

Zelda: Breath of the Wild had a glorious aesthetic to it: bright and vibrant, to the point where even the mechanical aspects of the game felt like they had life. But this concept art from the Master Works 30th Anniversary book are something...
