Ahead of the first reveal of the Nintendo NX console, Nintendo has uploaded three different videos showing off some neat and beautiful gameplay footage of the new Zelda game.

The first Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild gameplay trailer shows off Link exploring this world as he runs across the grass, sailing through the air (as was seen in previous trailers ), rock climbing and snowboarding across different environments.

Take a look at the first Breath of the Wild trailer below.

The second Zelda trailer focuses on combat. We see Link cutting down trees and gathering wood, cooking and, of course, fighting some enemies. Link uses his shield to block attacks and then destroy them with a flurry of sword attacks.

We also see Link rolling a boulder down a hill to catch his enemies off guard.

And finally we have a short trailer showing how the weather changes and how it affects your gameplay. We spoke to a Nintendo rep at E3 this year and the big thing we noticed was how the environment affected gameplay, from our arrows being blow away in the wind to how well you can climb things. We’ll also see a day/night cycle and from the looks of the trailer, we’ll get rain and other inclement weather as well.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will release for both the NIntendo Wii U and NX in 2017.

So what do you think of the latest Breath of the Wild trailers? Let us know in the comments section below.
