When the Goddess was reincarnated as Zelda in Skyward Sword , she cleansed herself in two sacred springs to recover her divine memories and power. Notably, the Skyview Spring and Earth Spring tucked away in the Faron and Eldin regions have been theorized to be BOTW ’s Spring of Courage and Spring of Power, respectively. Instead of a Spring of Wisdom to complete the “Triforce,” however, Skyward Sword’s Lanayru Desert housed the Temple of Time instead, which allowed Zelda and Impa to pass back in time to the Era of the Goddess so Zelda could recall her divin
Part of what has made the Legend of Zelda series so enduring is its many strong characters. Link has always remained the series’ star, and while he’s proven to be a consistently strong protagonist, it’s high time that another beloved character had the spotlight. There are plenty of other characters whose combination of interesting storyline potential and intriguing combat styles would shake things up in innovative ways. As players replay Zelda games before Tears of the Kingdom releases, they will likely even come across more strong candidates for other main characters not listed here. While these **Legend of Zelda ** characters may never get their time in the sun, their potential is a testament to the series’ well-crafted charact
Throughout Zelda lore, Hyrule’s royal family has worked to protect the sacred Triforce and uphold the peace and prosperity of the land. However, many attempts to keep the Triforce safe have resulted in inevitable disaster, and the royal family’s decisions often lead to the very fates they struggle to avoid. As long as Hylia continues to reincarnate, it seems that Demise’s malice will indeed curse her and her Chosen Hero throughout the entirety of kingdom of Hyrule’s past , present, and fut
Known from her appearance in The Wind Waker Cel-Shading Waker , Legend of Zelda ‘s Medli could make an excellent protagonist in her own right. The Rito may have changed in each Zelda game they appear in, but the race has been a key part the world they inhabit in each one, particularly Medli and her musical powers. Medli showed in Hyrule Warriors she’s a strong fighter in her own right, using her Rito Harp to launch wind at enemies in interesting ways. This intriguing character could have a whole game delving into the world of the Rito more, using her harp as a weapon against enemies, and her flight ability could lead to unique new in-game puzzles and navigat
Epona is one of the most likely inclusions since the lovable horse appears in most Zelda games, but it’s still vital for many fans. The level of importance that Zelda games give Epona also varies. Epona was an optional legendary mount in the original Breath of the Wild and felt like a major part of the game in Ocar
If the Darknut comes to Tears of the Kingdom , it has the potential to be a miniboss on the level of Talus or Hinox, or perhaps even the Lynel. Their strong armor can make them unique enemies that would require careful planning and preparation to defeat, especially if they had phases in Zelda: TOTK that connect them to their Twilight Princess iteration. They may drop very cool-looking weapons, shields, and possibly even bows, but like Wizzrobes, they might not drop other items. There could even be an armor set designed to mimic them, which would be just as cool as the weapons and fun to match with them. It would be great to see this enemy make its way into _Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ alongside Dinolfos and some other classic enemies, but until more is revealed, fans can only guess at which favorites will ret
Wizzrobes are a group of six different enemies in BOTW . There are three base forms, each wielding one of three elements; fire, ice, or thunder. There are also three advanced forms, which are stronger and have more health. While these advanced forms are fairly uncommon, Wizzrobes as a whole aren’t BOTW ‘s rarest or hardest-to-find enemies , and have reliable spawn points like most every foe. Like most elemental enemies, the fire and ice Wizzrobes can be defeated in one hit with an attack carrying their opposing element, but the thunder varieties have no such weakness. When they’re defeated, both the base and advanced forms drop their weapons, wands that can shoot their respective elements when u
While Mipha is gone for good in the normal Breath of the Wild timeline, it’s proven by Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity and Ocarina of Time that timelines in the Zelda series are incredibly flexible. If any of the champions could come back in Tears of Calamity , Mipha would be the best choice. After all, she and Link deserve some sort of happy moment toget
While Breath of the Wild ’s title seems to warrant no further analysis, its parallels to the title of Tears of the Kingdom may reveal more about the sequel’s plot than initially meets the eye. BOTW ‘s story was told primarily through Link’s recovered memories, allowing the Hero to rediscover his role of protecting Hyrule from Ganon’s malice after his 100-year slumber. Considering that Link bears the Triforce of Courage associated with the Wind Goddess Farore, it makes sense to associate him with “breath” in the game’s title. In a similar vein, Link serves as a literal link between the player and Hyrule throughout the franchise, allowing them to explore the “wild” through his character. As such, Breath of the Wild becomes an incredibly fitting title as much of the game revolves around simply allowing players to explore Hyrule as the Link of BOTW ‘s e
