Do you long to return to the fields of Hyrule, cleansing it of tyranny and those little bulblin chaps? You're wait is nearly over.

The hugely anticipated Hyrle Warriors is shaping up very nicely indeed, with two more trailers showing off the combo-heavy action emerging this week.

A mash up of the button-thumping Dynasty Warriors gameplay and The Legend of Zelda series, Hyrle Warriors is a significant departure from the normal Zelda mode of play - but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The game sees Link take on the evil witch Cia, who's kidnapped Zelda (who will also be a playable character) after falling in love with Link and growing jealous of their relationship.

The latest Japanese trailers (don't worry, they're pretty easy to follow) depict Link handing out all sorts of carnage with two fighting styles: a pacey, short-ranged style with his familiar sword and shield and a slower, more powerful ranged style with a fire-spewing staff. Check out the mayhem below.

Dynasty Warriors is due to arrive on the Wii U on 19 September
