The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening is getting a full 3D makeover on Switch

Well that was a hell of a Direct. Not one of my predictions came true (apart from a stray dream of Captain Toad DLC, nice), and it all wrapped up with The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening getting a shiny new 3D remake on Switch.

It looks like the same weird game from yesteryear - Link facing off against his regular enemies in top-down dungeons and the like, mixed with random cameos of Mario enemies. But this time it's got a lick of paint, and you can play it in glorious HD.

There's not much more info than that at the moment - all we know is that it's due out sometime in 2019. We'll keep you posted as we learn more over the next year, of course.
