The new gameplay trailer is less than 2-minutes long but shows a fare amount of actual gameplay with Link opening giant doors,freefalling in the sky, and riding what seems to be some sort of glider made of rock.

We are given a new trailer, a new title, a release date, and nothing else. We’ll update this story as more information is provided by Nintendo.
