We've already had news regarding new additions to the Hyrule Warriors roster, and tomorrow Japanese video sharing site Niconico will be live streaming footage of the game — presumably showing these fresh combatants in action.
The event will take place at 9PM Japanese time, which is 1PM if you're based in the UK. For North American readers, it's 8AM Eastern, 5AM Pacific.
Point your browser at this page at those times tomorrow to watch and learn.
Hyrule Warriors launches in Japan on August 14th, with the North American and European releases happening on 26th and 19th of September respectively. In the meantime, feel free to tide yourself over by watching the off-screen footage we captured at Nintendo UK's recent post-E3 event in London.

I am so excited for this!
Yay Hype!
Really looking out for this game already pre-ordered!
Dat bewbs.
This game is certainly benefiting from this vigorous advertising, there is already a lot of hype for a game coming out next month in Japan only.
Unrelated to my previous thought, but will this game have offscreen play?
@Tsurii897 Alright. Thanks. :3
With my Wii U sitting in my living room I'd probably have to play this offscreen, seeing as my parents do not approve of violent games. >_>
...cannot wait for college.
Come on, September!
@Tsurii897 I know the feeling (about going blind), though the reason I never knew back then was because my only source of Nintendo news was the Nintendo Channel, that is, if it ever loaded.
You sure it's 8AM Eastern? Cause I was pretty sure it was 10am Eastern Standard Time for North America and 9am EDT for Canada
Nice rack!
Im so sick and tired of people calling this game a mindless button masher. What is it with Beat em' ups and hack n' slashes in North America that get such incredibly horrible reps? Does no one like being an indestructible bad-ass and decimate everything? This game has really shown me how bad most Zelda fans are, I cant even consider myself a fan anymore just someone who really like the series. Now at this point it wont matter how good the game is its going to automatically get biased nostalgia blind scores everywhere here.
@noctowl No thats incredibly insulting Games like this main drive is combat, using combos moves and others ways of fighting to defeat enemies in fun flashy cool ways. Plus I highly doubt you've played it yet, your just like the people I described. Why is there such a horrible nerve and drive to insult this game every step of the way? ITS. A. SPINOFF!
So on what you've played years ago, your going to treat this completely new game that has proven to have different gameplay styles to the traditional Dynasty Warriors games the same without even played it yourself first? Thats not how it works, you cant just form an opinion and talk crap about something if you haven't played it yet it doesn't work that way.
@JSaario From the gameplay videos and previews written, it plays exacrly like every other warriors game ever released. From the grunts just standing there waiting to be killed, to the generals spamming block, it is literally a dynasty warriors game-by design-with zelda skins and that's it.
For people that like warriors games, it's great. For people like me, the entire project is a waste of time and ultimately a very poor use of the zelda franchise.
If youre honestly expecting something special or different from the warriors same old-sameold, you will be disappointed.
Wonderful pair of hands!
..wha..what game is that again??
@cdude My...god. You understand nothing everything you just said is a complete lie. I don't know what you think you know about the game but your wrong. The enemies stay there because its on easy mode something NO ONE understands, it has already shown Zelda styles of gameplay, games like this use combos and combination to combat enemies. This is a celebration of the 2 series. Don't you dare think you know what the heck your talking about until you've done every bit of research on the game first. You understand me? Every single complaint I hear about the game has never been justified or made with fair non biased opinions.
@JSaario
Most of them have never played a game in the series past normal difficulty or have extremely bad memorizes.
For me, @cdude, the first 40 minutes of Skyward Sword were boring, frustrating and rather obnoxious. Like Twilight Princess before it.
MAYBE, there are Zelda fans that want less BS in their storylines and more action.
I like a story that doesn't drag its feet for the first hour.
I LOVE Zelda.
I just kinda like DW.
But it's not some over the top 'historical re-creation' that KT usually tries to spin. The Zelda element IS the main draw. Honestly, I've played 8 or 9 of the games and there are alot of notable differences between the main series entries and the spin-offs.
With Nintendo's input (on weapons, content, music, animation, storyline and controls) it will be impossible to tell just how much the game differs from both the main series and the existing spin-offs.
Until a reviewable copy is made available that is.
I wonder if they should have made her mask more like Majora's Mask. Though her colours are comparable to Vaati's. Vaati never had a mask did he?
Does this run at 60 FPS? I've always been curious.
It's strange, with the mask, I'm certain the witch is like Ghirahim (multiple forms). One idea I had for a Zelda villain was a twist on Midna. Someone smaller and not very threatening that matured and became one of Link's greatest foes.
@cdude For people like you every one should start referring to Link as " that guy from Hyrule warriors."
