Hyrule Warriors is a Legend of Zelda spin-off game for the Nintendo Wii U video game console which combines the world of The Legend of Zelda with the action of Koei Tecmo's Dynasty Warriors series was developed by Team Ninja and Omega Force. It is the most combat-intensive Zelda game with hordes of enemies on the screen at once. Warriors can collect Rupees and materials to upgrade weapons and craft badges which can then be used to upgrade each character's abilities. There are multiple weapon types, with each type having its own move set. Also, individual weapons have their own stats and skills which can be transferred onto another weapon of the same type for a certain Rupee cost provided the recipient weapon has empty skill slots and the player is willing to sacrifice the source weapon. Legend Mode is the game's main story mode and is divided into seven chapters that will take players to original stages and also stages from Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword. Free Mode allows to replay any mission with any unlocked character. Adventure Mode is an alternative gameplay mode which takes the form of a grid in the shape of the overworld from the original The Legend of Zelda.
