A tiny tidbit of news on The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The recently released Hyrule Graphics art book in Japan reveals that the game’s art director is Satoru Takizawa. (Thanks, Nintendo Everything)
Takizawa art directed Twilight Princess, provided character designs for Ocarina of Time, and has also been involved with a number of other Nintendo projects over the years. Joining him as one of the art leads on Breath of the Wild is Takumi Wada, who last worked on The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and was the natural choice for the newer game.
In an interview published in the art book, Wada reveals that he actually drew three versions of one of the early promotional images for Breath of the Wild, to experiment with different art styles. You can view these three variants above.
