As such, Nintendo president stated that the game would not be the next main series installment of, but rather a spin-off from the main series. Long-time Zelda producer, is supervisor for the title. The concept for Hyrule Warriors was first proposed by lead developer Yosuke Hayashi while he and Koei Tecmo executive VP Hisashi Koinuma, who was in charge of the Warriors franchise, were discussing a possible Dynasty Warriors cross-franchise game with Nintendo. Zelda was chosen due to the fact that Hayashi, Koinuma and many staff at the company were fans of the series.When Warriors was presented to Eiji Aonuma, Koei Tecmo used their cross-over game as an example of how the game would feel. In contrast to previous collaborations, Nintendo was confident in Koei Tecmo's ability to make the game, leading them to have 'far more expectations than uncertainties.'
This confidence was shared by Aonuma, who readily accepted being offered a place in the game's development. Part of the reason behind Aonuma's strong support of Hyrule Warriors is an ongoing push by him to break away from many traditions that have become attached to the Zelda franchise since its inception. Along with, the main developers for the Dynasty Warriors series, Hayashi and Koinuma brought in help from Team Ninja, who had developed the series, to help more with one-on-one combat and inject new ideas into the development process. In an April 2014 interview, Koei Tecmo's president Yoichi Erikawa stated that he hoped Hyrule Warriors would appeal to fans of both franchises and go on to sell at least one million copies.Hyrule Warriors was publicly displayed at the with a new trailer, in which Agitha, Lana, and Midna were confirmed as playable characters. Zant and Argorok were also confirmed as boss characters.
The game also appeared in playable form for show floor attendees, as part of a Nintendo Treehouse presentation. Over the time span following the E3 announcement, Nintendo has released further information on the game's website, confirming Fi, Ruto, Darunia and Sheik as playable characters, as well as Ghirahim, the Imprisoned and a version of Gohma as boss characters. During a Nintendo Direct presentation on August 4, 2014, Zant and Ghirahim were also confirmed to be playable, alongside the game's main antagonist and final playable character, Ganondorf. A female version of Link was also considered as a potential playable character, but was scrapped during development.
Sketches of the female version were included in the Hyrule Warriors art book included in the Japanese limited editions of the game and the character grew in popularity shortly afterwards, becoming one of the more widely requested characters during Koei Tecmo's open call for new playable characters in the game's official Twitter. The female version, officially named Linkle, was later announced for Hyrule Warriors Legends during the Nintendo Direct web stream on November 12, 2015. Former Nintendo character writer Chris Pranger stated that Linkle was the last character he wrote for before leaving Nintendo.The status of Hyrule Warriors as an actual game in the Zelda franchise has been subject to contradictory claims from Nintendo. Iwata himself has called the game is a 'Zelda spin-off', and Nintendo's own website directly refers to both Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors: Legend as 'The Legend of Zelda Games'. However, written by Nintendo, does not acknowledge them as Zelda games, and instead labels them as games from other franchises that Zelda has been a guest in, alongside,.
The game's placement within the Zelda chronology has also been subject to vague statements from Anouma. Although he confirmed that the game is not part of the timeline, he also stated in the same interview that it is 'not in the universe but connected to the timeline' and that, 'there is a link between the two, but it exists as a separate dimension, so it doesn't exist as part of the main canon'.
