Nintendo is widely recognized for its impressive ability to keep upcoming projects under wraps. This reputation for stringent confidentiality was apparently taken to an extreme with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The highly anticipated follow-up to Breath of the Wild was considered one of the company’s most guarded developments.

Reports indicate that the level of secrecy surrounding Tears of the Kingdom was so profound that a significant portion of Nintendo’s own workforce was completely unaware of the game’s existence. Many employees reportedly discovered the title’s development at the exact same time the general public did, upon its initial teaser and announcement. This highlights an extraordinary commitment to preventing leaks, even internally. This report is based on findings originally shared by GameSpot.
