Be sure to cast your vote in the poll below; but first, check out the box art designs yourself.
Europe / North America
A look at the EU/NA cover will tell you everything you need to know about the Twilight Princess: it’s the dog. The red logo still takes its place proudly on the top half of the box, but the rest of the cover is surprisingly subdued for the Zelda game, awash in grays and browns.
As anyone who’s played Twilight Princess will be able to tell you, that palette is amazingly accurate – this is a much darker Zelda game, and the cover conveys exactly that. You hit the center image of Link in human and wolf form (two sides of the same coin), and this cover is a neat summary.
Japan
The Japanese cover, on the other hand, is about something completely different. “No one would want dog games,” they must have thought, “show me Link the charming emoji.” And that’s exactly what we got.
Link stands front and center of this in his new armored redesign. There’s a similar diagonal split going on here as we see in the EU/NA cover, but instead of showing the wolf on the other side, we’re fading to black pixels and orange of the Twilight Kingdom. It’s definitely more than a Zelda game with increased vibrancy and Link visuals, but is that all the Twilight Princess is about?
Thanks for voting! See you in the next round of Box Art Brawl.
