In an interview conducted by Dengeki PlayStation featured on Nintendo Everything, "Final Fantasy XV" director Hajime Tabata expressed his interest on directing "The Legend of Zelda." He also admitted that although his choice was a bit odd, if "The Legend of Zelda" is to be recreated out of "Final Fantasy XV's" technology and style, he would grab it.

It may not be a Square Enix official statement, but rather the director's personal input on the matter; still, it's interesting to visualize what the outcome would be.

Tabata's statement may have stirred questions online, but according to the Digital Spy, this isn't the first time that the Wii U-based game "Zelda" took in a third party developer. Nintendo previously sought the services of CapCom to develop several "Zelda" series.

There are still occasions when the thought of creating "The Legend of Zelda" on a different engine appears. According to Attack of the Fan Boy, the current "Legend of Zelda" for Wii U is built on a very special cel-shaded engine, but, somehow, the possibility of creating the game on better context can literally happen when it's being built from the "Final Fantasy XV" engine. Where epic world and adventurous exploration meet, "The Legend of Zelda" and "Final Fantasy XV" is not far from each other. This is probably why Hajime Tabata thinks he could do the task.

"The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes" is set to be released on Oct. 23. Fans who pre-ordered the game will also receive a cool "Legend of Zelda" themed T-Shirt.

"Tri Force Heroes" links three players to play the game in order for them to reach the dungeons and fight the bosses. The Totem mechanic, a new feature on "The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes," allows the links to stack up, reach higher levels and solve puzzles in exchange of rewards. Lastly, the new mode cannot be played by only two players. There are also no female playable characters on the said mode.

According to the Digital Spy, Japan is set to receive "The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes" on Oct. 22, one day ahead of Europe and North America.
