Nintendo might be in the middle of trying to make more smartphone games based on various IPs that it owns. The next game in the pipeline may be The Legend of Zelda.
This new rumor comes from a report from The Wall Street Journal. This is according to their own sources, although Nintendo and DeNA both declined to comment any further on the topic.
It’s being said that an Animal Crossing app will be released first in the latter end of 2017 and then The Legend of Zelda will follow after that. That being said, the timing of the release dates could change.
Hopefully more is announced during E3 2017 next month. There’s huge potential in the mobile gaming market as seen with Pokemon Go, Nintendo is probably hoping its future mobile games will be more successful than Super Mario Run.
