When a series becomes as well-known as The Legend of Zelda, it's hard not to make comparisons when other games borrow from its winning formula. That is the case with the Zelda-like Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm, the sequel to the equally Zelda-like title that released in 2013. Once an Apple exclusive, the sequel will now be releasing for the Nintendo Switch later this year.

Oceanhorn is an action-adventure series that follows a boy with a blue tunic who travels the seas, exploring dungeons and fighting monsters. Fans of Wind Waker will easily see the similarities. The game has been available on Apple Arcade since September 19, 2019, but is now officially coming to the Nintendo Switch in fall 2020. Along with the announcement, a new trailer was released to provide a glimpse into how the game will look and play.

Though the series gets compared to The Legend of Zelda often, it has its own distinct characteristics that make it stand out. But the familiar style of gameplay has made it fairly popular. When it released last year on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, Oceanhorn sold over 1 million copies in just a few weeks. This prompted the publisher to make it available on two more platforms afterward. After its sequel released, it ended up receiving a major update in the form of the Oceanhorn 2 - Golden Edition. It isn't clear yet if this additional content will be part of the Switch version.

If nothing else, the Oceanhorn series will tide over fans who are waiting for the next Zelda title to release -- namely Breath of the Wild 2. Nintendo has been holding details back on the anticipated sequel, but more information could be released during the upcoming August Direct. There are a lot of theories and speculations about the game, but judging by its trailer, there is evidence that Breath of the Wild 2 could be darker in tone than its predecessor.

Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm is available now for Apple Arcade and will release in Fall 2020 for the Nintendo Switch.
