The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ has plenty of iconic weapons and items that it can include in the game. Over its long history, _Zelda games have featured a variety of weapons for Link to use in his fight against evil threats. While not all have stood the test of time, there are some that are recognized as iconic and have reappeared in multiple games across the franch
Until recently, the only information that could be used to glean anything about Tears of the Kingdom and its plot was contained in the trailers, alongside some other details that have been announced. It’s known that the story will feature Hyrule once again being thrown into an apocalyptic situation, as it is seen crumbling under an energy that is eerily similar to that wielded by Calamity Ganon in BOTW . In addition, Link has a glowing arm in TOTK that appears to be a significant part of his arsenal in the new Amazon Nintendo Game Offers. However, the biggest hints so far may have come from recent alleged Tears of the Kingdom leaks of the artb
Similar to the Hookshot, the Boomerang is a weapon that sacrifices some damage for the sake of utility. The Boomerang can generally be used to defeat or stun enemies, activate distant switches, and bring items to Link. Zelda: Wind Waker and Twilight Princess , which still don’t have Switch ports, Increased the usefulness of the Boomerang by allowing players to lock onto multiple targets at once instead of just a single target. Breath of the Wild even included the option to use the Boomerang as a more direct weapon, letting the player brandish it like a sword and perform melee atta
Combining simple black icons with vivid bursts of color can also be a recipe for success. This Breath of the Wild tattoo captures the symbols for the four Champion’s Abilities that Link gains upon defeating the Divine Beasts. The smoky effect of the color splashes gives a mystical vibe and ties the entire tattoo into one, cohesive work of art rather than four distinct tattoos. The forearm position also allows for a great long canvas on which to display this particular tattoo (by @apothecaryjuices on Tumb
Midna’s true form, revealed in Twilight Princess doesn’t appear here, instead, her impish design has been honored. As Midna appears to have tattoos herself, making her the perfect subject for a tattoo. The digital Twilight Realm markings on her body are rigid, turning at right angles. Contrasting this with her natural curves and flowing hair makes for a fantastic design. Additionally, the colors stay true to the original game, captured with impeccable det
If Tears of the Kingdom has ships sailing around, then it’s not out of the realm of possibility to think that Hyrule could be flooded during the events of TOTK . There are already floating islands, and it’s possible that they could end up being an escape from the waters down below. Tears of the Kingdom may not be dark compared to other Zelda games, after all, but that doesn’t mean that it won’t see Hyrule experiencing another great turm
Tears of the Kingdom flooding Hyrule and leading to The Wind Waker would be an interesting twist, but that’s not the only direction that it could go. In fact, there is already at least one contradiction between the two games. Not only did the King of Hyrule have different names in both Breath of the Wild and The Wind Waker , but BOTW ‘s king was already dead long before that game, much less TOTK , while Wind Waker ‘s king was there at Hyrule’s end. The Kings of The Legend of Zelda ‘s Hyrule are not the only difference, but they are one of the most promin
Tears of the Kingdom could end up reenacting Wind Waker ‘s, but with a different result than the timeline that led to that game’s events. There have been so many incarnations of Link and Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda that almost every game could take place in its own dimension, all tied together with the vital elements of the series. Tears of the Kingdom ‘s flood may not be as world-changing as Wind Waker ‘s was, and perhaps the land could still be habitable by the game’s
Like the Master Sword, a bow and arrows show up frequently in Zelda games, and often with different types of arrows that can be earned or found. The typical magic arrow types: fire, ice, and light, all have their own uses, making the bow a more versatile weapon, and it’s even occasionally necessary for solving puzzles. How strong different arrows are can vary in Zelda games, especially with Light Arrows’ magic powers . But given the possibility that Zelda is indisposed during at least a portion of TOTK , the Light Arrows could be an iconic addition as well as useful for Link as he fights against evil forces without the help of Zelda’s divine powers, which were crucial against Calamity Ga
Immortals Fenyx Rising is based on stories and characters from Greek mythology. It follows Fenyx, a Delian squire who sets out to end the giant Typhon’s reign of terror. Fenyx does this by rescuing a series of gods Typhon has rendered powerless, defeating their corrupted forms and returning them to their former glory. It’s a story with a lighter tone than BOTW and TOTK , with snarkier characters and a more well-defined, anything-but-silent protagonist. Immortals Fenyx Rising is available on Switch, PC, Xbox, PS4, and
