what is the second legend of zelda game
The Legend of Zelda The chronology of the Legend of Zelda series was a subject of much debate among fans until an official timeline was released on December 21, 2011, within the collector's book Hyrule Historia, which was originally exclusive to Japan and was later released in the United States.[30][31] Prior to its release, producers confirmed the existence of a confidential document, which connected all the games.[32][33] Certain materials and developer statements once partially established an official timeline of the released installments. ZeldaÂ II: The Adventure of Link is a direct sequel to the original The Legend of Zelda, and takes place several years later.[34][35] The third game, A Link to the Past, is a prequel to the first two games,[36][37][38] and is directly followed by Link's Awakening.[39][40] Ocarina of Time is a prequel that takes the story many centuries back; according to character designer Satoru Takizawa, it was meant to implicitly tell the story of the Imprisoning War from the manual of A Link to the Past, with Majora's Mask directly following its ending.[41][42] Skyward Sword is then a prequel to Ocarina of Time.[43] Twilight Princess is set more than 100 years after Ocarina of Time.[44][45]
