Tears of the Kingdom will have flying mounts , which means Link will take to the skies to explore floating islands. Combining their talent for magic with their reverence of dragons, there could be more Zonai ruins on those islands. They may have expanded their civilization to the sky for advantages in war, or they could have been exiled or driven to the sky in a last effort to avoid being wiped out. While it's possible that the Zonai could be related to the floating islands since both are heavily referenced in the trailer, it seems unlikely that the Zonai will be the focus of the islands since the trailer links the Zonai more heavily with the Calamit

Another of Link's new abilities in Tears of the Kingdom is something that will allow him to return objects to a previous position. This power also comes from Link's new arm in the BOTW sequel , and has been shown twice so far. The first time was in the E3 2021 trailer, where Link used it to send a spiked ball back at some enemies, and the second was in the latest Tears of the Kingdom trailer, where he used it to ride a large rock up through the air. Both times, the world turned black-and-white, but everything continued to move around the affected object. This ability looks very similar to BOTW 's Stasis and serves a similar function, and it's possible that it's a new or advanced form of

Their race is also heavily inspired by the ninjas of Japan as seen with characters like Impa and zelda Characters 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

Ocarina of Time was a flagship game for the Nintendo 64, and it was a game Nintendo purposely utilized to test how far the console could be pushed. While Ocarina of Time's scrapped portal system couldn't work in the Zelda franchise in the late '90s — the portal work was completed around '96 or '97 per Giles Goddard, a developer who worked on a concept demo for Ocarina of Time - it might be able to now. The Switch can handle much more complicated coding and larger game sizes. The original Nintendo Switch handled Breath of the Wild , the franchise's biggest game, with ease, and now there are even newer Switch models with better specs and capabilities. With each new console, cooler features like these scrapped portals become increasingly possi

In Breath of the Wild , Link has a variety of abilities at his disposal to help him navigate the world and defeat his enemies. The majority of these come from the Sheikah Slate, a mystical artifact left to him by Princess Zelda. With it, he can create bombs, manipulate metal, freeze water into climbable pillars, and even stop time for enemies or inanimate objects. Other powers come from the spirits of his friends, the former Champions who lost their lives fighting Calamity Ganon 100 years prior. From what's been shown of Tears of the Kingdom so far, it's uncertain if these powers will return, but thankfully there will be others to take their pl

Pebblits are smaller versions of one of BOTW 's miniboss monsters, the Talus. Pebblits come in a few different varieties depending on where they're located; Igneo Pebblits can be found in volcanic regions such as Eldin, Frost Pebblits reside in snowy areas such as the Hebra Mountains, and Stone Pebblits are found throughout Hyrule. Each one will drop one piece of ore when defeated, with each variety providing different kinds. Although it might seem like defeating BOTW 's Pebblits is hard work given only a few select weapons can do any damage to them, players can kill them very easily by simply picking them up and throwing them, or by using a Remote Bomb or Bomb Ar

Tears of the Kingdom's release date is still months away, but players have plenty of side quests in Breath of the Wild to spend time on until then. Nintendo's silence on TOTK and the trailers that don't reveal much information have led to players forming theories about what the next adventure in Hyrule might feature. Since the rumors rely heavily on speculation, it's possible that none of them will end up being true. However, it seems likely that there will be, at the very least, a connection to Skyward Sword in **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

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
