Questions surrounding Link’s new altered arm also have fans wondering if he’s been cursed. After thousands of years in Breath of the Wild of keeping Calamity Ganon at bay, the royal magic user deserves a break, but it doesn’t look like she’ll be able to enjoy that newfound freedom. So far trailers have shown her plummeting into a dark abyss, along with an ancient etching showing the princess in what appears to be a sacrificial state.
Many fans’ biggest concern at this point is if Zelda is going to be a major part of the story, let alone alright. What Questions and Hopes Do Fans Have for Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom? Abilities like Stasis also appear to retain great utility, like being able to redirect massive projectiles like a rolling steel ball of doom into a herd of enemies. While common enemies like Bokoblins have made their return, they will team up, setting up moving encampments on bosses like Stone Taluses, adding an extra level of challenge and expanding on Breath of the Wild’s impressive combat mechanics. There are some notable improvements coming to the ground world of Hyrule as well.
Whether falling through the clouds while triumphant orchestral music blasts, or discovering levitating ruins, players of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom can expect plenty of aeronautical exploration opportunities.Īnd there’s a number of new abilities Link has uncovered for help soaring to waypoints and distant floating islands, including what appears to be a flying manta ray machine, a vertical elevator-like addition to the Sheikah slate moves, and seemingly a sort of interdimensional hookshot that not only lets Link pass through the bottom of solid rock, but appears to be an ability stemming from that newly corrupted arm. Yet for as grim as the initial trailers might be in spots, Tears of the Kingdom simultaneously feels hopeful and liberating as it takes to the skies to explore a now airborne Hyrule. While BotW’s villain was more a force of nature, it appears we will get a Ganon who once more has insidious plans in development - unless he’s just… dead.

And in his macabre mausoleum, he is oozing purplish gooey and airy corruption, with some of this viscera connecting with Link’s arm, leaving it scarred with a dark series of tattoo-like marks. Unlike the kaiju-sized Calamity Ganon in the previous title, this Ganon does have many of the traditional staples of his Ocarina of Time Ganondorf look, from the long red hair to the Gerudo jewelry. Ganon’s role will be another major new addition to the Switch-era Zelda. That’s not to say BotW wasn’t properly post-apocalyptically sad and somber, but the scene in question plays out more like a horror film, with skeletal jump scares and dissonant piano chords ramping up to a sense of pure terror rather than an evil you must stop. While we have seen little about the story, we did get a peek at an eerie crypt containing a mummified Ganon, suggesting that Tears of the Kingdom could have a significantly darker storyline than its predecessor, Breath of the Wild. What We Should Expect to See and Experience in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom However, we’re not completely in the dark about what to expect from Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, so let’s break it all down.
