In addition, since the hero in Breath of the Wild ‘s mural telling the story of that battle 10,000 years ago resembles Ganon, it’s possible that he isn’t the threat that emerged then and therefore not the main villain of Tears of the Kingdom if it does take place in that time. Instead, the damaged state of the Master Sword may point to the real antagonist: Demise, the villain of Skyward Sword , who was sealed within the sword, and whose hatred is the source of Ganon’s Malice. In this case, Link, Zelda, and Ganon could all work together to bring down Demise, and Ganon may ultimately become corrupted by his Malice and go on to become Calamity Ganon. Like almost everything else about Breath of the Wild ‘s sequel, it may be pure speculation for now, but Demise returning in Tears of the Kingdom _ could be a great plot twist – one that can bring not only _BOTW but the entire Zelda series full circle – and a way to show Ganon as something other than a vill
The glider’s reveal confirmed the popular TOTK fan theory that Link would have some form of flying mount to navigate the various floating islands, similar to Skyward Sword ‘s Loftwings. Unlike a Loftwing, however, players may not be able to truly fly with the mechanical glider, as it has no obvious means of self-propulsion. It could be that they’ll only be able to glide with it as a floating platform, giving it a similar purpose to the regular glider but presumably without the cost of consuming stamina. It appears that it will be extremely useful for exploring Hyrule – especially its floating islands – and could be of help in solving some _The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ puzzles, but may have little to no function in com
One thing fans can expect Tears of the Kingdom to do that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild did is to both introduce new races and expand upon the already created ones within the kingdom of Hyrule. This may even extend beyond Hyrule, because Tears of the Kingdom promises to expand the world even fart
The Gerudo Desert is very similar to Egypt, with pyramids and other buried and worn architects. The Gerudo themselves are also similar to Amazons in how they are mostly a female race, for Gerudo rarely have male children. Their belief is that if a male child is born to a Gerudo woman, they must follow him as their k
Some of the new abilities that Link will use in **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** have been revealed, and they look like they will be quite good and fun to use. There may also be more abilities revealed in the time leading up to release, in addition to the ones that players won’t see until they actually pick up the game and possible changes to some of Link’s returning BOTW abilities . TOTK releases next year on May 12, so there’s plenty of time to reveal more of the powers Link will wield on his new adventure through Hyr
The Gerudo are an (almost) all-female race. They are a desert people, warriors similar in many ways to the Aiel from the Wheel of Time . The Gerudo are known for beautiful craftsmanship and for thiev
The Hyoi Pear’s use and effect were simple. Link would place the pear on his head, and a seagull would swoop down and eat it. From there, the player would be able to control the seagull until it either took damage, or the player willingly gave up control. While the idea sunds about as silly as Wind Waker ‘s Link playing a theremin , it was quite useful, as the seagull could find treasures and even solve some puzzles. It was an odd item, but one that could have plenty of potential for a second appearance. After Breath of the Wild required Link to survive in post-calamity Hyrule, being able to recruit the local wildlife for help in Tears of the Kindgom could be a good next s
The ball and chain is one of the most interesting weapons that Link has been able to wield in the past, and it’s a shame that it didn’t resurface in another adventure after Twilight Princess . It did see relevance again as one of Link’s alternate weapons in Hyrule Warriors , where it granted him an impressive moveset. Connecting Tears of the Kingdom to Twilight Princess could open a lot of possibilities, with the ball and chain as a weapon being one of the b
Their race is also heavily inspired by the ninjas of Japan as seen with characters like Impa and Zelda Crossover when she takes on the guise of Sheik. In Breath of the Wild , the Sheikah are primarily seen more in the realm of technology, however, the outcast Yiga Clan touches on the shinobi influen
The depictions of animals in the Zonai ruins show that three creatures had more importance to them than others. These creatures would be pigs, birds, and, most prominently, dragons. It’s possible that the Zonai worshiped the lightning dragon Farosh, who appears around the ruins in Faron. Alternatively, these animals are linked to the three pieces of the Triforce. Pigs are associated with Ganon, who holds the Triforce of Power. Owls are birds associated with wisdom. The Spring of Courage is found inside dragon ruins, which links the dragon to courage. Therefore, the Zonai seem to have a connection to the Triforce or a reverence for
