After defeating one of the skeletal Stalizalfos, you’ll be able to pick up and use one of their arms as a weapon. Aside from the simple joy of smacking foes with their own fists, you can also toss the Lizalfos arm, with the bone functioning as a boomerang that’s much like their signature weap
A few shots from Tears of the Kingdom appear to take place underground, in caves and caverns. In one particular portion of the footage, next to a handful of Bokoblins that appear to be mining, you can clearly see what looks like spirits floating around on the gro
Despite having been teased by Nintendo several times, the story of Tears of the Kingdom has remained mostly a mystery, with most of the game’s short teasers, trailers, and gameplay showcases keeping many aspects of TOTK tightly under wraps. Whereas new powers, enemy types, and the game’s floating sky islands have all been known features for a while, past trailers have provided only slight hints at the game’s plot. With the release fast approaching, however, the final pre-release trailer for Tears of the Kingdom has at long last revealed more, including several popular characters returning from Breath of the Wi
Just under a month away from the highly anticipated release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ , a new trailer has shown off more of the game’s story than any previous material, including several returning characters from _Breath of the Wild . A rare direct sequel in the Zelda series, Tears of the Kingdom continues the story of its predecessor, placing Link back in the same open-world, post-apocalyptic Hyrule, with what looks like a bevvy of major changes to keep the game fresh. First revealed in 2019, Tears of the Kingdom is shaping up to be a massively ambitious game, well worth the w
While the Lizal Tri-Boomerang may make for a solid sword, it doesn’t hold a candle to some of the game’s heavy-hitting weapons, such as the Lynel Sword line. These wide, flat blades are as powerful as the Lynels who weld them, and the Savage Lynel Sword actually has a section of its blade split in three. Fusing a weapon like the Lizal Tri-Boomerang with the Savage Lynel Sword could make for one devastating weapon in Tears of the King
As one of Breath of the Wild ‘s most popular side characters, it’s not surprising to see the return of Prince Sidon. Perhaps more surprising, though, is what seems to be his new role in gameplay, as TOTK ‘s last trailer shows him fighting an enemy alongside Link as a companion character – a major expansion on his relatively minor role helping against the Divine Beast Vah Rutah in BOTW . Keen-eyed viewers may also be able to spot a crown on his head, as well as a mysterious “tear” on the back of his hand, suggesting that he may have a significant role to play in TOTK ‘s st
The Lizalfos of Breath of the Wild don’t have every boomerang in the game to themselves – not when there are giant Boomerangs out there to be discovered. These massive, traditionally-shaped boomerangs are slow, but they’re also huge enough to wallop enemies as a handheld weapon and cover enough ground when thrown to strike a large group d
To no surprise, Link returns as the protagonist and main playable character of Tears of the Kingdom , and while his combat and exploration mechanics remain similar to BOTW , TOTK also gives Link plenty of new abilities , seemingly courtesy of his new mechanical arm. Expanding on Link’s climbing and gliding, Tears of the Kingdom will give him the ability to fuse objects together to craft new weapons, arrows, shields, and even entire vehicles for traversing through water or air, perfectly suiting the game’s floating sky islands and greatly expanding the options for both exploration and combat. Moreover, unlike in BOTW , Link seems to get to keep his memories this time aro
Admittedly, this one feels a bit like cheating. Still, the Master Sword is the iconic primary weapon of the Zelda New Villain Null series. It’s already an absolute powerhouse of a weapon in Breath of the Wild, especially after being fully powered up, but Tears of the Kingdom’s new systems open up a world of possibilit
Despite the defeat of Calamity Ganon in Breath of the Wild , the latest trailer for Tears of the Kingdom finally confirms that its mysterious villain is in fact Ganondorf. Contrasting the explicitly monstrous and (for most of the game) mostly formless Calamity Ganon of BOTW , TOTK ‘s Ganondorf takes the form of a more humanoid Gerudo, mirroring the villains past appearances in previous Zelda games like Ocarina of Time . Interestingly, promotional art for the game shows TOTK ‘s Ganondorf as taking somewhat of a departure from past Gerudo designs, with an exposed chest, ponytail, and a large kat
The addition of new tools in TOTK clearly has the potential to provide many quality-of-life improvements to the game when compared to BOTW . In some cases, there are tools that could greatly improve resource collection methods from BOTW should they be implemented. In others, Breath of the Wild ** ’s ubiquitous durability system means that what could be useful tools are instead weak weapons that come with limited uses in the open-world game. By making such items a permanent addition to Link’s toolkit, Tears of the Kingdom ** can solve several problems with its predecessor’s gameplay experie
