The great king of evil and main villain of the Zelda franchise, Ganon, will not be appearing in upcoming Zelda game, skyward sword. What this means for fans is that possibly a completely new villain will step up to the last boss position. What will be their main motive (well, way of taking over hyrule) be? How will they do it? And how will they be defeated? Well so far we know who it is. In an interview with the US Nintendo Power Magazine, Zelda Producer Eiji Aonuma revealed that Lord Ghirahim will be Link’s main enemy.
It shouldn’t be much of a surprise to fans who are looking news on skyward sword; they already know that the game doesn’t focus around the triforce as much as other Zelda games do. A lot of new features are getting revealed in this game, which is only making everyone get more excited about it. If anything, it’ll prove to be a completely new game to us all.
"Ganon typically appears in a Zelda game when the story is centred around the Triforce. This time around, the Triforce sort of takes on a different meaning and plays a different role in the story," Aonuma told Nintendo Power. "So because of that, Ganon will not appear."
"Thinking about Ganon, he's a very masculine, powerful, evil character that anyone can look at and realise is your archenemy in the game. This time around, I thought that if we featured a character similar in presentation to Ganon, it really wouldn't make that much of a difference and that new character wouldn't have much impact.
"I wanted to make a character that contrasted what people think about Ganon - someone who is a little bit mysterious and kind of makes people think, 'well, I don't really know what to make of this somewhat terrifying character.' That was sort of my goal in making a character like Ghirahim, and that's basically why I did that."
What do you think of this? Has he made a good choice?
