The Legend of Zelda - Future of Madness

The Legend of Zelda- Future of Madness is an action-adventure game. 
Along with "The Legend of Zelda - Prehistory of Fury", this game forms a "past and future of Hyrule" duology and, like Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, the two games can be linked together for a special ending called "Present of Insanity". 
Unlike many Zelda games, it has a hi-tech urban fantasy setting similar to the Trails series.
Massive changes have been in this new Hyrule: as Hyrule has been conquered by the Shan-Raznik empire, the Triforce has been forgotten and descendants of the royal family and its followers, led by self-proclaimed heir to the kingdom of Hyrule Hayato Tani, have turned to violent crimes and founded a mafia organization called the Sanryoku (shanraznite name that means "Triforce"), which rules over the criminal underworld of the Empire. 
For some reason, the Sanryoku seems interested in emergent pop idol Zelda Miyawaki. 
In the streets of Apasirigrad (futuristic Hyrule City), a party of three vigilantes rises from nothing. Their names are Kei "Link" Linikov (a mute mercenary who masters the katana and uses multiple weapons), Haruka "Rai" Raikov (a cyborg specialized in guns, hacking and controlling machines) and Tatyana "Impa" Impaeva (a streetwise girl skilled in both martial arts and detective work).
Their job is to investigate mysterious deaths and bring justice on the Shan Raznik Empire's underworld.
== Playable Characters ==
*Kei Linikov: A mute traveling mercenary with special magic implants, clad in green, coming from the Gerudo Desert. His gameplay is the most action-based, with his katana, but he's also proficient in magic attacks such as fire, wind, electricity and ice. 
*Haruka Raikov: A hacker with cybernetic parts, originally a member of the empire's special force Chornyj Glaz (shanraznite for "black eye"). Armed with a gun, a sniper rifle, grenades, a bulletproof barrier and a cloaking device. His gameplay is based on hacking, controlling hi-tech vehicles such as mecha, and performing stealth infiltrations.
*Tatyana Impaeva: A vigilante making her hideout in an abandoned house in Hamada district. She's a fan of Zelda Miyawaki. She's good in martial arts and parkour but also disguising, questioning enemies, searching the environment and analyzing objects. Her gameplay is the one most focused on detective work.

== Trivia ==
*This game is inspired by Gotham Knights and was created from the questions "What if Link was Deathstroke?" and "What would a Zelda game with industrial metal as its OST be like?". 
*The protagonists follow the Physical-Mystical-Technological archetypes.
