Catching insects, lizards and other small critters in Breath of the Wild is a matter of careful movements and quick reflexes, as stealth is a key factor in not scaring the small animals away. Meanwhile, the Bug Net is a familiar Zelda tool that nevertheless failed to make it into BOTW . Infamously a Zelda item capable of reflecting magic , its intended use is naturally to help Link capture small creatures, typically insects, for a variety of purposes. If the Bug Net is included in Tears of the Kingdom , it will make doing so much easier, and as a result, the player would have a greater supply of useful elixir ingredie
Interestingly, another vehicle shown in the demonstration is a basic flying raft – a wooden platform fused with four downward-facing fans and a sail, allowing it to move with the direction of the wind. The limited battery, however, seems to greatly restrict such devices from gaining too much height, which is a far cry from the sky-faring vehicles previously seen in trailers. While not elaborated on in the gameplay demonstration, it seems likely that Tears of the Kingdom ‚s progression will eventually allow for dedicated ways of building more complicated vehicles, with much greater or even unlimited energy supplZelda also wields a new slate this time around, that is far more reminiscent of the Switch than the Wii U, hinting that she either found a second for her own use, or Link no longer requires it thanks to the magical arm business he has going down. Yes, I am begging for Zelda to be playable , and all the pieces falling neatly into place like this doesn’t help matters.
For some fans, the lure of an exploration-based game like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is helped by having a lively hub world that’s enjoyable to spend time in. Redditor jaspergants wants it to truly be a fantasy world fans would want to live in and thinks that would be helped by a return to „a bustling Hyrule“ in the Breath of the Wild seq
As Tears of the Kingdom approaches its long-awaited release, Nintendo is likely to reveal more of the game’s underlying systems, with the end of the gameplay demonstration promising that the game still has more to show. Releasing on May 12, 2023, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ promises to be an exciting new addition to the series, and a major expansion on the already impressive _Breath of the Wi
However, Ganon proved to be impossible to defeat. He corrupted the Guardians and Divine Beasts, turning them against Hyrule when he finally emerged, and the four Champions perished. At the same time, the Princess‘ knight was mortally wounded, leaving Calamity Ganon Free to destroy Hyrule. Just when all hope seemed lost, Princess Zelda awoke her divine powers and trapped Ganon inside Hyrule Castle. Link is, of course, her knight, finally healed after 100 years by the aptly-named Shrine of Resurrection. Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom, meanwhile, is trapped alongside Ganon inside the castle, holding him back; it is her voice that has been calling out to L
Aside from using the ability for exploration, however, Recall can also be spotted being used in a previous trailer for Tears of the Kingdom . In it, Link uses the ability on a large metal spiked ball rolling down a hill at him, sending the object back up its path and crashing it through several enemies. Like Stasis from BOTW , the specific use cases of Recall seem somewhat niche in combat situations, with the ability seemingly being most useful for turning the tables on preset traps, but creative players may yet be able to find creative uses for it upon the full game’s rele
Having debuted in The Legend of Zelda , where players find it in the first dungeon, the Boomerang has made appearances in the majority of Zelda games. Considering that BOTW features several Boomerangs that players can find and use as Link, it seems natural that a direct sequel would also include those weapons or similar versions. If Tears of the Kingdom revisits classic Zelda , then including at least one Boomerang is a necessity due to its long history within the franchise to the point that it’s become ico
In a similar vein to Fuse, the Ultrahand ability allows Link to bind objects together, being the method for creating the vehicles previously seen in trailers. Functioning similarly to the previous game’s Magnesis ability, Link uses it first to pick up objects, rotate them, and move them around, being able to stick them to the surfaces of other objects once in proximity. In the demonstration, Link creates a rudimentary boat by fusing three logs and two strange mechanical fans, with the fans starting when hit and seemingly operating off of a limited, but replenishing battery gauge similar to Link’s own stam
Surprisingly, personalized elements like this aren’t something that the Zelda series has ever utilized much before and they could be missing a trick as a result. For many fans, the world of Zelda games provides a form of fantastical escapism that few other franchises can achieve, and the homely, personal elements only further that effect. If **Tears of the Kingdom ** leaned into this, it would give those fans even more reason to spend endless hours immersed in the wo
