The original game, as well as the Wii U HD remaster, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2016\/02\/video_digital_foundry_tackles_the_native_resolution_and_framerate_in_the_legend_of_zelda_twilight_princess_hd\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">were locked at 30fps<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Work on the native PC port isn\u2019t actually complete, however, as Linifadomra explains in the video that they\u2019re still looking for more developers to help get the project over the finish line. That being said, they also note that it\u2019s \u201ccompletely crashless\u201d and, besides a few funky cutscene glitches, I personally couldn\u2019t spot any huge bugs or issues in the footage.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s impossible to say exactly when it will be finished at this point in time, which makes it all the more impressive that someone has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=IGQrgHS3bHg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">already modded<\/a> Hyrule Warriors Legends\u2019 Linkle, a female variant of Link, into the Twilight Princess: Courage Reborn port.<\/p>\n<p>Just keep in mind that when it does release, you\u2019ll still need an ethically sourced ROM of the original The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the GameCube to actually run the native PC version of the game. Just like with the native PC port of Star Fox 64, these types of projects are generally considered to be outside the zone of Nintendo\u2019s legal threats for that exact reason. Twilight Princess: Courage Reborn itself isn\u2019t supposed to contain any of Nintendo\u2019s own proprietary assets upon release.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll see if that actually stops Nintendo from issuing a challenge, and if the mod project releases before the company brings Twilight Princess to the Switch 2\u2019s GameCube library.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A native PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which has been dubbed Twilight Princess: Courage&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":570140,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[2210,74,31351,251448],"class_list":{"0":"post-570139","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-pc","9":"tag-technology","10":"tag-the-legend-of-zelda","11":"tag-the-legend-of-zelda-twilight-princess"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/570139","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=570139"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/570139\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/570140"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=570139"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=570139"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=570139"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
