As Link explores the BOTW sequel's transformed skies , he will be able to use at least three abilities that have been shown in trailers so far. There are other new items for Link to use, such as a large device that shoots flames, but this looks like a temporary weapon and not something that he will have access to all the time. Though it's not confirmed, it would appear that at least some of Link's powers comes from his new arm, which could mean that it will serve a purpose similar to BOTW 's Sheikah Slate. This arm has been a subject of great interest since it was first revealed, and from what's been shown so far, it will have no small amount of importance to both story and gamep

Traditional Zelda dungeons in Tears of the Kingdom would address one of the criticisms of Breath of the Wild , where the puzzles being spread out and the presence of the Divine Beasts left some players missing the dungeons from previous Zelda games. Dungeons generally have Link complete them so that he obtains a reward at the end that helps him with his quest to save Hyrule, like awakening the Sages in Ocarina of Time and collecting their medallions. The image of seven tears in the TOTK trailer could imply that Link will be heading into more traditional Zelda dungeons to gather those te

After the reveal of **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** , it didn't take long for theories and rumors about the trailers to surface. Nintendo Switch 2 amiibo has done its best to keep the information given in trailers to a minimum, but the hidden details have been more than enough to spark rumors. While some rumors don't hold much weight, others have enough credence to possibly be included in Tears of the Kingdom when it launc

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

Prince Sidon is the prince of Zora, the son of King Dorephan, and Mipha's brother. He not only assisted Link in taking down a Divine Beast that was threatening Zora's Domain in BOTW , but also was a good friend to the Hylian hero and shared an emotional bond, in part because of Mipha. Sidon heavily grieves his sister's death and can be caught speaking to her statue, wishing she were there. The quests surrounding the Zora in BOTW focus heavily on her, and Link's adventure log reveals his feelings for Mipha , though fans had to sift through the Japanese version to get the bigger picture of this. Contemplating the events that may happen in Tears of the Kingdom it is easy to assume that Prince (or perhaps even King by this time) Sidon will join Link for at least a portion of the trials which he will face in this next chap

There are many enemies from Zelda 's past that could come to TOTK . Some of them could fit in very well and should make an appearance, while others might be better off excluded. Tears of the Kingdom 's darker themes compared to Breath of the Wild might be a sign that the creepier and macabre enemies of Zelda will come. The floating islands also could mean that more flying enemies will come to BOTW , both new ones and those from past games. It's even possible that recurring enemies will come that are completely unexpected. In addition, any returning enemies may have some significant changes, and could be completely unrecognizable from their previous versi

The ReDead are frightening enemies that are hard to forget about, Legend of Zelda enemies first introduced in Ocarina of Time . They typically take the form of a tall, emaciated zombie with a mask, and paralyze Link with their gaze before moving in to attack. They're slow-moving enemies that are weak to fire and sunlight, and live in underground ar

The official name for Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ , the sequel to _Breath of the Wild , has finally been revealed, and it's opened up a number of questions about what it means for the story. " Tears of the Kingdom " sounds rather ominous, and has some worrying implications for Link, Zelda, and indeed all of Hyrule. Along with the official title, the BOTW sequel's release date confirmed via trailer to be May 12 of next year, so it may be some time before players see exactly what TOTK 's story holds, but more trailers released in the interim will hopefully help shed some light on

If the ReDead were to appear in Tears of the Kingdom , they could be quite different from how they are in most games. They might take the form of skeletons instead of zombies, and either join the ranks of BOTW 's Stal or completely replace them. Malice animating the skeletons of dead Hylians and turning them against Link during the night sounds like a good story for them, and makes sense with the large amounts of Malice infecting Hyrule as shown in the trailers available so far. Their paralyzing ability could be more obnoxious than it was in past games, however, especially if they're alongside BOTW 's other powerful enemies and bosses , given the game's ragdoll physics and the various elemental effects enemies can
